I just installed an aftermarket stereo in my daughters 93 Ford Tempo.

I have seen others post on-line and they were incorrect for my 93, the one I found my have been for a different year. THere are 2 wiring harnesses on the stock/OEM unit, one for the speakers (#1) the other for the power (#2). Here is what I found:

Harness #2
Constant 12 v+ : Green/Yellow
Switched 12v+: Yellow Black
Ground: Black/Yellow
Illumination: Blue/Red
Unused: Orange/Black

Harness #1
Left Front (+): Orange/Green
Left Front(-): Blue/White
Right Front(+): White/Green
Right Front(-): Green/Orange
Left Rear(+): Pink/Green
Left Rear(-): Tan(Brown)/Yellow
Right Rear(+): Pink/Blue
Right Rear(-): Brown/Pink

Hope this helps.

The switch that controls the defrost, heater and vent settings have gone bad and needs to be replaced. Auto Zone should have that part or you can do the Salvage Yard for around $10.00. The switch that controls the setting has a diaphragm and when it fails, the vacuum from the air lines starts to make the sound you hear and there is not enough pressure to engage vent doors. It take about 20 min to replace from start to finish and your only going to remove two screws from the dash over the instrument panel, the trim panel around the stereo and climate control just clips in place. You don't have to remove the trim panel, it's to much of a pain. the climate control is held on by 4 bolts and the vent setting is held on by one bolt. Once you have the climate control panel unbolted from the dash, disconnect the vent control vacuum lines and then replace the vent control switch. Once replaced, put everything back together in reverse the way you took it apart. Good luck and check that the new vent control works before you put everything back together, just be take caution when you have the engine running to check.

fuses are on the dash, left side by driver's knee.

you need to get into trunk area what side take off sill panel then side trim in question and then take bolts off pull tail light out and change bulb and then reverse to put back together

you will need to remove the climate controls from the dash and check to see if the cable has fallen off.........the other end of the cable is behind the glove box,removing it should give you access to check if it has fallen off there. replaacement cables and clips to hold it at the ends are probably only avail at a ford dealer
Hope this helps!

on the tempo it is right inside the colum behind the key cyn

try using some wd40 inside the sleeve of the accelerator cable
