This is Ford factory service documentation for the sixth-generation Bronco, supplied as a single PDF of 4,779 pages. It follows Ford's own numbered section scheme, so 501-18A is the soft top, 501-18B is the hard top and 308-07C is the part-time four-wheel drive transfer case. Every procedure carries its own revision date, and the removable roof is documented as a serviceable system rather than an accessory.

What you can repair with it

The removable roof gets proper workshop treatment rather than a handbook summary. The soft top section names every component individually — canopy assembly, front header, flip latch, retainers, front and rear seals, tension bow assemblies and centre seal, and the cables that run through the frame tubes — and then gives the removal and installation order for each. The hard top has its own section covering the rear cap assembly, the flip latch bolt cover and the support bar that has to go on first for the top to attach correctly.

Powertrain coverage splits by engine, with the 2.3L EcoBoost and the 2.7L EcoBoost each carrying their own fuel and control material, and by gearbox, with the 10R60 automatic and the MT88 manual documented separately. Four-wheel drive is treated as a part-time system with its own transfer case section, alongside front and rear axles, halfshafts and the driveshaft.

Body and trim work runs from front end panels and closures through interior and exterior trim, glass and mechanisms, seats and the instrument panel, and extends into front end, side panel and rear end sheet metal repair with full frame and body mounting. Electrical diagnosis is supported by wiring diagrams that carry circuit identifiers and wire colours through to each destination module, plus module configuration and the multifunction electronic modules section.

Manual language and format

This manual is written in English and downloads as a single PDF. It carries a text layer, so you can search for a section number, a torque figure or a circuit identifier and jump straight to it. It opens on Windows and Mac computers, tablets and phones, and pages print individually.

Questions about this manual

How does the Bronco soft top come off?
In the order the manual sets out, starting at the latches: press down the handle on the driver side to unlatch the top, then work through the soft top material, the tension bow assemblies and their centre seal, and finally the frame assembly. The cables are pulled out through the frame tubes rather than unbolted. Each of those is a separate numbered procedure, so you can stop at the level you need instead of stripping the whole roof.

How do you put a Bronco soft top back on?
The manual gives installation as its own sequence rather than simply reversing removal, because the order matters — the cable is fitted to the frame assembly first, the seals are seated onto the tension bow, and the assembly is latched last. Where a step is genuinely a straight reversal the manual says so explicitly.

Can a Bronco hard top be removed?
Yes, and it has its own section separate from the soft top. It covers the rear cap assembly, releasing the clips to take off the flip latch bolt cover, and the support bar — which the manual warns must be installed first if you have removed it, otherwise the top will not attach properly.

Which engines and gearboxes are covered?
Both EcoBoost engines — the 2.3L at 199kW/270PS and the 2.7L at 238kW/324PS — and both gearboxes, the 10R60 ten-speed automatic and the MT88 manual. The part-time four-wheel drive transfer case is documented in its own section, so two-wheel and four-wheel drive cars are both served.

Which model years does this manual cover?
It is Ford's workshop information for the sixth-generation Bronco, which began in 2021. The document itself is the 2022 model year edition — its page headers read “2022 Bronco” — and individual procedures carry revision dates running up to 2022, with the bulk revised during 2021.

Are wiring diagrams included?
Yes. The diagrams show each fuse by number from the battery junction box, the circuit identifier and wire colour on every branch, and the destination module for each feed, including the audio control module, the module communications network and the antenna circuits. The first sample page above is one of them.
