Code Description - 89 Bronco

My husband ran the codes on my 89 Bronco this weekend. While it came up fairly clear, there was one code that he couldn't figure out what it was. It was code 82. The description says 2.3L TC - Fan Control wire shorted to ground - A/C and Fan Control Circuits AIRB solenoid - Solenoids and Air Injection 3.8L SC - Super Charger Bypass Solenoid - Solenoids. HUH?!? He can't figure out what this is supposed to mean or what to look for. I hope someone can answer this mystery for me....

Thanks

A code 82 for your Bronco means that the secondary air injection bypass solenoid circuit has a failure. Check the TAB (thermactor air bypass) solenoid for anything out of the ordinary- broken vacuum line or electrical wires. I think you can replace the TAB solenoid pretty cheap from Ford if needed.
