Important Information for Module Programming
NOTE: When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.
• Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect IDS/scan tool to a power source.
• Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
• A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
• Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors.
• Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).
• Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
• Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
• Create all sessions Key ON Engine OFF (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process.
Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module:
NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION!
a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during Module Reprogramming (MR) or Programmable Module Installation (PMI).
b. Disconnect the VCM from the Data Link Connector (DLC) and the IDS.
c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection.
d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed.
NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them. Double-click the session to restore it.
e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically.
f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR.
g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions.
h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Federal law prohibits selling motor vehicle parts or components that are under safety, compliance, or emissions recall. Unless a part is requested to be returned to Ford, all parts replaced under this FSA must be scrapped in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal environmental protection and hazardous material regulations. Refer to the Parts Retention, Return, & Scrapping section of the FSA dealer bulletin for further information.

• After the parts have been inspected, they should be handled based on the guidance in the parts status report in the Online Warranty System (Hold, Return, CORE, Scrap, etc.).
• This process is subject to review during warranty audits for FSA repairs with a repair order open date of March 1ˢᵗ, 2021, or later. Any eligible FSA claims requiring parts replacement found not to have been inspected and signed off during a warranty audit will be subject to chargeback and consideration for enrollment into the Dealer Incomplete Recall Repair Process.
Note: Other approvals (electronic or handwritten) for add-on repair lines, dealer-owned vehicle repairs, and repeat repairs do not qualify as FSA parts inspection approvals. The post-repair FSA parts inspection process (electronic or handwritten) is independent of other warranty approval requirements. The approval by the designated employee implies that the FSA parts were found to be replaced and must be able to be identified on the Repair Order. If multiple FSAs require approval on a single Repair Order, each applicable occurrence will require individual post-repair approval by the designated employee. © Copyright 2023 Ford Motor Company Ford Motor Company

Dearborn, Michigan 48121 Customer Satisfaction Program 23N01 Mr. John Sample 123 Main Street
Anywhere, USA 12345 Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): 12345678901234567 September 2023 At Ford Motor Company, we are committed not only to building high-quality, dependable products but also to building a community of happy, satisfied customers. To demonstrate that commitment, we are providing a Customer Satisfaction Program for your vehicle with the VIN shown above. Why are you receiving this notice? Although your vehicle’s Crankcase Ventilation (CCV) hose system is likely functioning fine, a sensor in your vehicle may incorrectly report that a hose in the CCV system is disconnected. We are pleased to let you know that Ford Motor Company is offering a one-time repair for this issue if the hose assembly (which includes the sensor) requires replacement within certain time and vehicle mile limitations. What is the effect? On your vehicle, the CCV monitor sensor may detect a disconnected hose and the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on your dashboard may illuminate even though the CCV hose is still properly connected.
If required, this one-time repair of your vehicle’s CCV hose assembly is available for a total of 11 years or 120,000 miles from the warranty start date, whichever occurs first. If your vehicle has already exceeded either time or mileage limits, this one-time repair offer will last until March 2024. This program is automatically transferred to subsequent owners. What will Ford and your dealer do? If your vehicle requires repair to the CCV hose assembly and your vehicle is within the indicated time/mileage limitations, Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to replace the existing CCV hose assembly free of charge (parts and labor) with a new design that incorporates tamper-proof connectors without a CCV monitor sensor. In addition, the unused sensor wiring branch will be capped and stowed, and a new calibration will be installed to accommodate the removed sensor. This is a one-time repair program. How long will it take? If the component mentioned above requires replacement, the time needed for this repair is less than one-half day. However, due to service scheduling © Copyright 2023 Ford Motor Company VEHICLE SALE NOTIFICATION FOR 23N01

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 23N01 Module Programming 15. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery. NOTE: Verify that the negative cable of the charger is installed on a chassis or engine ground, and not the 12 volt battery negative terminal to prevent the battery saver mode from activating on the vehicle. NOTE: If the diagnostic software does not load or if the vehicle cannot be identified properly, make sure there is a good internet connection and the Vehicle Communication Module II (VCM II) is properly connected to the Data Link Connector (DLC). NOTE: Make sure the IDS computer does not enter sleep mode during programming. 16. Reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) using Integrated Diagnostic Software (IDS) release
129.03 or higher. Make sure you are connected to the Internet prior to reprogramming. NOTE: Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com. NOTE: Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure. 17. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery once the reprogramming has completed. 18. Check and clear codes. Important Information for Module Programming NOTE: When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors. • Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect IDS/scan tool to a power source.
• Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
• A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
• Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC
system, etc.) and close doors.
• Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).
• Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
• Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
• Create all sessions Key ON Engine OFF (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process. CPR © 2023 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 23N01 Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module: NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION!
a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during Module Reprogramming (MR) or Programmable Module Installation (PMI). b. Disconnect the VCM from the Data Link Connector (DLC) and the IDS. c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection. d. Locate the original vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed. NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the Recycle Bin icon at the lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to look through them. Double-click the session to restore it. e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically. f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR. g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions. h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Federal law prohibits selling motor vehicle parts or components that are under safety, compliance, or emissions recall. Unless a part is requested to be returned to Ford, all parts replaced under this FSA must be scrapped in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal environmental protection and hazardous material regulations. Refer to the Parts Retention, Return, & Scrapping section of the FSA dealer bulletin for further information. CPR © 2023 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121
