ISSUE:

Some 2013 C-MAX, Fusion and MKZ Hybrid/Energi vehicles may exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P06B8 in the powertrain control module (PCM) and/or have PCM continuous memory diagnostic trouble codes (CMDTCs) that will not clear after the cause has been repaired.

In addition, the engine in some vehicles may continue to run-on for up to 5 seconds after powering down the vehicle when the engine is running.

 

ACTION:

Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.

SERVICE PROCEDURE

1. Using IDS or Scan Tool, perform a Keep Alive Memory (KAM) reset. Select:
   1. Toolbox
   2. Powertrain
   3. Reset KAM, PCM
2. Relearn the misfire monitor profile.
   1. Start the vehicle, leave the transmission gear selector in Park.
   2. Perform a manual tip-in on the accelerator pedal to force an engine startup.
   3. Allow the engine to run 15 seconds and shut down. If after 15 seconds the engine does not shut down, turn off the vehicle. After key off, engine will run an additional 5 seconds.
3. Leave the ignition off for a minimum of 20 seconds.
4. Turn the ignition on and using IDS or Scan Tool check for PCM CMDTCs.
5. Are PCM CMDTCs present and/or does the engine run-on for 5 seconds after powering down when the engine is running?
   1. No – repair is complete.
   2. Yes – perform the PCM Programmable Module Installation (PMI) routine. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 418-01.

Service Information & Reprogramming

Software necessary to program electronic modules to the latest calibration level, perform module initialization (PATS), and set Programmable Parameters on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.

Ford Module Programming (FMP) is a software application that allows subscribers to program electronic modules on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. It can be used for:

• Reprogramming emission-related (OBDII) modules on some vehicles manufactured in 1995 and all vehicles manufactured from 1996 to the present
• Reprogramming or reconfiguring non-emission-related modules on many vehicles (UBP and MS-CAN not supported)

In addition, module initialization (PATS) functions such as Keycode Erase/Reprogram and PCM Parameter Reset can be done using this application.

J2534 Device using Ford Module Programming (FMP) can Reprogram and Configure most Modules.
