Principles of Operation

NOTE
^ Newly released modules will require configuration after being installed on the vehicle. All configurable modules will be packaged in a kit which contains a warning label and a multi-language sheet reemphasizing the requirements to configure replacement modules.
^ The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has to be flash programmed using a flash cable.

Customer Driven Preferences
There are customer preference items that can or need to be configured on this vehicle. These are items that the customer may or may not want to have enabled. Typically, customer preference items can be toggled on or off by the use of a Ford compatible scan tool. You may need to ask the customer which preferences they had enabled prior to installation of the new module.

To carry out the customer configuration process, use a Ford Service Function (FSF) card and the NGS Tester. Refer to the Customer Preference Index for modules on the vehicle that have customer preference items. Customer Preference Index
Configure the items as needed with a Ford compatible scan tool.
