Vehicle Dynamics Control Module (VDM) Software Update

 

OVERVIEW

In the affected vehicles engineering continued to refine designs and incorporate additional features throughout the vehicle introduction. These hardware and software improvements were released as running changes to improve quality, diagnostic capability, functional performance and enhance customer features. Dealers are to refer to the Vehicle Repair Table in ATTACHMENT III to identify the special service updates required for each vehicle by VIN. Dealers are to also call the Ford GT Concierge, using the Ford dealer access phone number, to order parts, and schedule a vehicle for repair.

NOTE: During the programming process multiple vehicle modules will be updated. Before beginning the service procedure make sure the vehicle is completely assembled and all of the interior and exterior body components and electrical connections are connected and secured.

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE 

Important Information for Module Software Updating/Programming 

NOTE: When updating or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.

• Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged and maintained with a battery charger before carrying out the programming steps.
• Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, ) and close doors.
• Start all programming sessions key on engine off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming process.

NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all DTCs after programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures, record results and contact the Ford GT Concierge to obtain additional service assistance by telephone.

NOTE: If required, two Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drives will be shipped with the PUMA® tool. One VIN-specific USB flash drive for the SYNC software update and one USB flash drive that can be used on any vehicle for the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)/PUMA tool updates. See Figure 1.

NOTE: If required, the VIN-specific SYNC software update has to be performed first. The IPC/PUMA software updates are not VIN-specific and must be performed after the SYNC software update (not all vehicles will require the SYNC software update). The battery maintainer must remain connected until all updates are completed.

NOTE: The last 3 digits on the SYNC USB flash drive should match the last 3 digits of the vehicle VIN.

 

SYNC Software Update (If Required) 

NOTE: The SYNC software update is VIN-specific and a unique USB flash drive will be provided for each vehicle, when the PUMA tool is received. The last 3 digits on the SYNC USB flash drive should match the last 3 digits of the vehicle VIN.

1. Connect a battery charger. Please follow the Workshop Manual (WSM) procedures in Section 414-01.

3. At the beginning of the SYNC software update, a “Installation Complete” message may be temporarily displayed. Please ignore this message as this is part of the SYNC software update. See Figure 3. 

4. During the programming the display will scroll through a number of non-Ford GT These images are a normal part of the SYNC software update process. See Figure 4.

5. The SYNC update is complete when the screen turns green with the message “Update Successful, please remove USB”. Remove the SYNC USB flash drive and return it to the Concierge. See Figure 5.

NOTE: If the SYNC screen turns red instead of green, Contact the Ford GT Concierge to obtain additional service assistance.

6. Locate the IPC USB slot under the instrument panel on the drivers side near the Data Link See Figure 6.

7. Insert the IPC USB flash drive, that was received along with the PUMA tool, into the IPC USB See Figure 7.

NOTE: Ensure the PUMA tool is connected in a way that it will not become disconnected. Once the PUMA tool is connected the updates will start automatically. These updates will take approximately one hour depending on the number of updates a vehicle requires.

8. With the key on and the engine off connect the PUMA tool to the Data Link Connector. See Figure 8.

9. During the programming the PUMA tool Run/Armed LED will blink. See Figure 9.

NOTE: If at anytime during the programming stage the Run/Armed LED is not blinking indicating a failure proceed to Step 11.

10. Wait for the IPC to sound a 10 second tone and the PUMA tool’s “complete” LED to be illuminated (a few minutes after the IPC tone, the “complete” LED should be displayed). Do not remove the PUMA tool from the Data Link Connector until the “complete” LED is displayed and then choose the option below that matches your condition. See Figure 10.

NOTE: If at anytime during the programming stage the Run/Armed LED is not blinking, indicating a failure, proceed to Step 11.

Why are you receiving this notice?	Your vehicle is eligible for special service updates that were not initially available on your vehicle when it was built.

What will Ford and your dealer do?	In the interest of customer satisfaction, Ford Motor Company has authorized your dealer to perform the special service updates free of charge (parts and labor) under the terms of this program. This Customer Satisfaction Program will be in effect until November 30, 2019 regardless of mileage. Coverage is automatically transferred to subsequent owners.
How long will it take?	The time needed for this repair is less than one day. However, due to service scheduling requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a longer period of time.

What if you no longer own this vehicle?	If you no longer own this vehicle, and have an address for the current owner, please forward this letter to the new owner.
