Module Programming: Recovery

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Perform the following steps to return the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) to the factory setting. 
  1. Start an IDS session. If a previous session is present, select None of the Above.
  2. Select No when verifying the information on the Vehicle Specification screen.
  3. Enter the Tear Tag into the IDS to identify the vehicle.

    NOTE: The Tear Tag is located under the As-Built screen on the Oasis tab on PTS (Professional Technician Society).
  4. There will be a second "Vehicle Specification" screen. Verify the information and select YES.
  5. When the session is started, Module Programming should automatically begin. If it does not, select PMI from the IDS menu and select PCM.
  6. This procedure will only install the latest factory calibration and will not  verify if an unauthorized calibration was installed. Following the repair, attach the PCM Filename, Ignition counter and any Diagnostic trouble codes to the repair order for documentation.
