Module Configuration

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln Navigator, 2002 Ford Expedition, 2001 Lincoln Navigator, and 2001 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Powertrain control module has to be flash programmed using a flash cable. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION.
NOTE: Newly released modules will require configuration after being installed on vehicle. All configurable modules will be packaged in a kit which contains a warning label and multi-language sheet reemphasizing requirements to configure replacement modules. A New Generation Star (NGS) tester or Ford compatible scan tool MUST be used to retrieve configuration data from old module before it is removed from vehicle. This information will be transferred into new module so that new module will contain same settings as old module. NGS tester will not retain stored configuration data for longer than 24 hours.

Following manufacturer's instructions, upload configuration data from old module using Ford Service Function (FSF) card and NGS tester. Install new module and download stored configuration data into new module using FSF card and NGS tester.
