Removal And Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Prior to removal of the module, it is necessary to upload module configuration information to a scan tool. This information needs to be downloaded into the new module once installed. For additional information, preform MODULE CONFIGURATION article.

Upload the module configuration information from the LCM into the scan tool. For additional information, preform MODULE CONFIGURATION article.

NOTE: A new LCM is delivered in a manufacturing mode with a pre-set DTC of B2477. This DTC will clear when the module has been successfully configured (or programmable module installation [PMI]). DTC B2477 may need to be cleared after a successful configuration (or PMI).

Remove the pin-type retainers and position the LH instrument panel lower insulator aside.
Disconnect the courtesy lamp and remove the LH instrument panel lower insulator.
