  1. To perform this procedure NGS tester, Ford Service Function (FSF) card and NGS Flash Cable (007-00531) must be used. Plug flash cable into scan tool. Plug other end of flash cable into Data Link Connector (DLC). From the scan tool main menu, select SERVICE BAY FUNCTIONS, PCM-POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE and then PROGRAMMABLE MODULE INSTALLATION.

The second selection is for restoring the new PCM with information that has been retrieved from the old PCM. Follow display instructions or refer to instruction sheet included with FSF card.
