Ford Transit 00 Loom Guard

Thieves have discovered that if certain wires in the rear door loom are shorted, usually whilst cutting though, that this actually unlocks the doors giving immediate access into the entire vehicle.  This means not only have you lost the vehicle contents, but you cannot lock any doors until the loom is replaced.  Consequently demand for replacement looms from Ford has led to lengthy back order-times, - up to three weeks.

Ford have now recalled all new Transits and are making a modification that stops the doors unlocking when the door loom is ‘shorted’, however, thieves have no way of knowing this and cut the wires regardless, hoping to unlock the vehicle.  We now have a situation where thieves can’t gain access; however you also are prevented. There are also situations where the would be thief will cut the loom on the wrong side of the van, which is why we also offer a twin pack at a reduced price.

LOOM GUARD prevents wiring harness attacks at the gap between the door and the hinge post.  Made from phosphated steel and powder coated, this is an ideal quick to install and highly cost effective fit and forget security device, or perhaps you would prefer to take the chance?

Installation

The shield is fitted into position using the supplied self-drilling screws or steel rivets as shown in the picture.  Once installed, and the door closed, the loom is protected from attack
