Mike, the electronics inside of your car is made by many different manufacturers. So, what specific part are you looking at. IT isn't like the old days when all the parts were made by 1 company (Lucas). What are you trying to figure out. Maybe then we can give you some guidance.
For example, the radios for the 1997(?)-2003 cars were made by Denso. But starting in 2004, the radios are normally made by Alpine. You look at the plugs and you have a bunch of different manufacturers there (makes replacing a plug really fun, TRUST ME, doing that right now). The alternators are I believe a Ford product. On and on.

Mike, I believe most of the sensors are Bosch components. That would be sticking with the Ford concept of building cars. I haven't gone under the hood and really took a good look at all the sensors. As for the computers, I am not sure on that. I would venture to guess it would be Denso, but can't say for sure.
