CERTAIN 2011 THROUGH 2015 MODEL YEAR FIESTA AND 2012 THROUGH 2014 FOCUS VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A DPS6 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE REPROGRAMMING FOR OVERT TCM FAILURE WARNING

 

OVERVIEW

This customer satisfaction program updates the transmission control module (TCM) software in affected vehicles to provide improved detection and overt warning of electrical circuit failures in the TCM. Electrical circuit failures within the TCM may develop and result in intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. Updating the TCM software will help ensure the vehicle operator is alerted to potential issues with the TCM prior to failure.

Before delivering any of the vehicles involved in this program, dealers are to reprogram the TCM using IDS release 114.04 or higher.

NOTE: As of August 4, 2015, vehicles being serviced for any of the following programs will also receive the TCM/PCM reprogramming and clutch adaptive learn strategy updates identified in this FSA:

  • TSB 16-0129
  • FSA 18S32

Therefore, it is not necessary to perform 15B22 separately, and 15B22 should not be claimed, when repairs for any of these programs are performed.

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

  1. Reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)/Transmission Control Module (TCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release 114.04 or later.  Ignition MUST be cycled OFF for at least 15-30 seconds following completion of the reprogramming process.  See “Module Reprogramming” on Page 2 for additional information.

NOTE: For 2.0L Focus models:

  • Prior to running clutch adaptive learning but after PCM/TCM reprogramming, it may be necessary to Start the engine and hold at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) until the temperature gauge reads 1/2 up the gauge display. Once at the appropriate temperature range, Key OFF then Key ON and initiate the clutch adaptive learning routine.
  • If there is difficulty completing (passing) clutch adaptive learning, it may be necessary to turn on the headlamps/high beams with blower on high with AC OFF to add load and smooth out the idle.

NOTE: It is important that consistent brake pedal pressure be maintained throughout the learn procedure.

NOTE: Do not turn the steering wheel during the learn procedure.

  1. Perform TCM clutch adaptive learning procedure.
    1. Run the engine until the instrument panel temperature gauge is reading between 1/3 and 1/2 of the normal range.
    2. Turn off all electrical accessories including rear defrost, HVAC, etc.
    3. Using the Ford approved diagnostic tool, navigate to the TCM Adaptive Learning sub menu.
    4. Select Clutch.
    5. Follow the instructions displayed on IDS.
  1. After reprogramming and clutch adaptive learning are complete, check and adjust the vehicle clock as required.

 

Module Reprogramming

NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures.

  1. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery.
  2. Reprogram the Powertrain Control Module using IDS release 114.04 or higher.

NOTE: Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com.

NOTE: Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure.

  1. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery, once the reprogramming has completed.

 

Important Information for Module Programming

NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures.

NOTE: Performing the service routines will clear adaptive strategy. Failure to perform all steps of the IDS routines may result in erratic shifts and driveabilty concerns.

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.
  • 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!

  1. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during Module Reprogramming (MR) or Programmable Module Installation (PMI).
  2. Disconnect the VCM from the Data Link Connector (DLC) and the IDS.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

  1. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically.
  2. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select the previously attempted process, PMI or MR.
  3. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions.
  4. 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.

  1. I’m having major issues with my 2012 ford feista and fords serivce dept. This will be my 5th time getting this vehicle serivced. An serivce rep call me to state that the engine lights going on is do to a mass flow sensor, throttle body and PCM problem. At no time does he include any of ford fiestas TSB and/or the transmission/clutch faulty parts. I didn’t not except his diagnosis and would like to challenge it. What to do?

  2. I’m getting the 15b22 update now, my car is not starting more often than does this update fix the problem or will it just maid it so the car knows its having a problem? The dealership said it would fix the problem.

    • It may fix your Issue, no guarantee. You may have a separate issue all together. Only way to find out is to reprogram every thing, then go from there.

      • Well they said it was the tcm and they are replacing it but I’m just reading horror stories from everyone else saying that even after they’ve replaced it they area still having the same issues just making me nervous

  3. I took mine to Jess Ford of Pullman WA for the update today. The car is still there. They said the engine was surging so the program was only partially installed. I told them it did not surge at an idle before, the problem was it would shift strange driving every now and then. But they seemed to equate that to surging at an idle. Said they had to find and fix the surge issue before they could program. So the car is unusable. Could something have happened during the update to cause the engine to start surging???

    • There is no such thing as program partially installed, The reprogramming either completes or fails, if programming fails engine will not run. You have another Issue with your car.

      • thank you for clarifying for me.
        there was not an issue with the engine surging prior to bringing it in for the update. on 10/19 had it in to them for an oil change and did the works. if it was surging then wouldn’t it have been noticed during the multi-point inspection? I am trying to figure out how it is that the car ran great before then suddenly started surging during the update.
        they told me that the program started to install then the engine began to surge and they could not complete the install. now i understand that was not the case and the program just failed to install.

  4. My dealer reprogrammed my 2014 fiesta without my permission even though there was nothing wrong with my vehicle and no complaints from me. Since the updated software was installed i notice the vehicle behaves differently, it wants to pull or keep going after the throttle is released, and shows no sign of slowing down until the brakes are used.
    There is no longer any engine braking on down hill runs when throttle completely released.
    gear changes are much slower than before, and transmission up-shifts a gear after releasing the throttle. ( I expect the car to slow down once the throttle is released not change up a gear) I have demanded the car be re-set back to factory settings i.e. as i bought it, as i had no problems prior to the dealer installing new software. How can i get the car factory re-set.?? i do not care about extended warranty, only getting back the “as purchased” performance.

  5. My ford fiesta 2012 has transmission malfunction. I was told by ford dealership in Humble TX that module replacement is needed but they have back order for it so they cannot say when they can have it replaced. When can this module be available for my car? I cannot afford to let my car sit in their shop without knowing when that module will be replaced.
