So I have been having issues with my check engine light coming on and off randomly (seems like it does it when it's cold).
Ran codes, I get all 11's, all is well - cannot find any problems with vacuum lines, sensors, etc..
I have been reading that there was a recall for the salt/pepper shaker wiring harness, however when I search around the net, it is not showing up on..
I have found it in forums, but not on service bulletins. When I call Ford, they tell me that there are no outstanding recalls for my VIN..
Seems like this is what could be causing my check engine problem, but I am not sure how to get Ford to replace it..
Reference: question about recalls... - Ford Mustang Forums
I guess I could fix it myself..?? However when I took off the upper intake cover to release the salt/pepper shaker, I am unable to actually get them opened to look at the pins.

Emissions Recall 91E19 - Wiring Harness (12A581 to 9D930) Interconnect Assembly Inspection/Installation on Certain 1989/90/91-Model 5.0L Engine Equipped Mustangs.
Affected Vehicles
1989/90/91-Model 5.0L engine equipped Mustangs built from 3/1/89 through 11/5/90.
Reasons For Recall
The "Check Engine" warning light may be activated because of intermittent contact at the wiring harness (12A581 to 9D930) interconnect assemblies. This may result in unnecessary EVP sensor and EGR valve replacements.
Service Action
Vehicles returned for service will be inspected, and if necessary, have wiring harness interconnect assemblies installed at no charge

I have no sticker on my fan shroud, so the only thing I can imagine is that my Mustang was not built between 3/1/89 through 11/5/90..?
Any ideas?
