However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- To perform this procedure, NGS tester, Ford Service Function (FSF) card and NGS Flash Cable (007-00531) must be used. Plug flash cable into NGS tester. Plug other end of flash cable into Data Link Connector (DLC), located under instrument panel next to steering column. From the NGS tester main menu, select SERVICE BAY FUNCTIONS, PCM-POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE and then PROGRAMMABLE MODULE INSTALLATION.
- NGS tester display should show 2 selections. The first selection is for old PCM information to be retrieved and stored. The second selection is for loading new PCM with information that has been retrieved from the old PCM. Follow scan tool display instructions or refer to instruction sheet included with FSF card. If Vehicle Identification (VID) block has been reprogrammed previously, NGS tester will display a message indicating the need to reflash entire Integrated Circuit (IC).
