- Inspect the ignition coil-on-plug(s) that have been removed for cracks and/or signs of heat related damage. Refer to Figures 1-3 at the end of this procedure for examples of damage. Does the ignition coil-on-plug(s) inspected show signs of damage?
- Yes – proceed to Step 4.
- No โ replace only the spark plug(s) from the cylinders(s) associated with the P035X DTCs and do not continue with this article. Refer to the PC/ED manual for normal diagnostics.
- Review the Online Automotive Service Information System (OASIS) repair history to determine if a PCM with an RM part number suffix has been installed previously. Has a PCM with an RM part number suffix been installed previously? (e.g. XXXX-12A650-XXRM)
- No โ proceed to step 5.
- Yes โ replace only the ignition coil-on-plug(s) and the spark plug(s) for the affected cylinder(s) and do not continue with this article. Refer to the PC/ED manual for normal diagnostics.

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.
