WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Mariner and 2006 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This method is used to configure parameters that may be modified. Not all features controlled by the module are listed in this configuration method. Refer to the PROGRAMMABLE PARAMETERS INDEXΒ  for a list of features by system.

If a module that has been modified using programmable parameters needs to be installed, the PMI procedure maintains the parameters in their altered state if the WDS is able to communicate with the old module during vehicle ID. Otherwise, programmable parameters may be needed to return the module to the altered state.
