Programmable Module Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: If using the WDS, select Module Configuration and Programming, then follow the screen prompts.
NOTE: Do not remove the original module from the vehicle until the diagnostic tool has retrieved the module's configuration information.
NOTE: Make sure the module is listed as being supported by programmable module installation in the MODULE CONFIGURATION INDEX .
NOTE: Make sure to use the flash cable when programming calibrations or running a PMI routine on the PCM.
NOTE: It is important to keep a record of any error message given by the tester during the programmable module installation routine. Additionally, observe the point during the routine that the error message is given and refer to the DIAGNOSTIC TOOL MESSAGE INDEX . This will help determine what is causing the error message.
  1. Select Programmable Module Installation on the diagnostic tool.
  2. Select Retrieve Module Configuration-Old ECU, and follow the text screens until successful.
  3. Install the new module.
  4. Continue with directions form the diagnostic tool for module reprogramming.
