Hey Diver!
You were my inspiration to buy and carry a code reader for my F150. ![]() ![]() Glad you got one too. Now that we have them, the rule is, we will never need them.:cross_fingers: |

Tell me about your laptop with Ford programs. Is that something I need to download before there is a problem? As I said, I bought a code reader. I also carry a MAC laptop. What Ford programs do I need? Can I get them online or from a Ford dealer? I thought all I needed to do was to have a code reader that could pick up the problem directly from the vehicle's onboard computer by plugging it in. ![]() |

Tony,
I got the PCM/FICM program form my Ford dealer after applying a little pressure. I know others have it available but I'm not sure the PCM/FICM program is available on standard code readers; maybe on code reader/programers. Most tuners only save your previous tune and then install theirs. This is so you can reinstall the factory tune when you go to get service. I suppose if you ran a tuner and had it save the Ford tuning, it might work for a PCM/FICM reprogram but I'm not sure. Maybe Ron knows ? This is only an issue with 2003-2007 6.0L Ford diesels. Should not be an issue for your F150. |
