ECM REPLACEMENT

Q: ECM is being replaced in my 2005 GT Mustang. Will I be able to reload the perfomance tune when I have a new "brain"?

Vehcile would not crank due to anti-theft system going haywire; thus unable to reload factory tune prior to vehcile being transported to dealership.

Thanks.

If you were unable to restore the backup file, you will need to fax us a copy of the work order showing the PCM was replaced, and we will reset the tool over the phone.

Thanks

Sir, I have received my new "brain" and I am ready to expand its capability again. What fax number should I send the paperwork to?
Thanks.

Mike, I attempted to reflash the vehcile but the device keeps telling me that there is a performance tune already on it. Could it be possible that the Ford Dealer reflashed the PCM with my performnce tune from the orignal or they didn't actually change it out. Regardless, if that is the case I have now reflashed the predator back to it's original factory mode. What do I do now? Thanks for the support.

Are you saying that you called here, we reset the tool, and now it is giving you this error message?

If so, they did not reflash the PCM.

Thanks

Correct, you talked me through the reset procedure and now I have this error message.

OK, then you need to have the PCM reflashed.

Thanks

Mike, it has been a while (been deployed since the last email) but I am back and still have the same problem. I took the vehicle to the dealer and he checked the flash and states it is the factory flash now. Could it be possible that the new factory flash is of a newer model Mustang? I am still unable to flash the performance tune.
Thanks,

Mac

I hate to say it, but, if the Predator will still not save the backup, then it is not a factory Ford program.
They can only see that the calibration has been updated, not what tune is there.
They need to physically, actually reflash the PCM in order for this to work.

Thanks
