- 2.5L equipped vehicles proceed to Step 5.
- Determine the vehicle emissions level using one of the following methods.
- OASIS – Click the additional information link in the upper right corner of the OASIS results for the vehicle. The emissions level is displayed in the detailed vehicle specification chart, located in the top section of the pop-up window.
- 49 state/non-green state requirement vehicles proceed to Step 4.
- California/green state requirement vehicles proceed to Step 5.
- Using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) service tool or equivalent Scan Tool, determine the emissions level from the vehicle specification screen.
- Federal emissions proceed to Step 4.
- 50 state emissions proceed to Step 5.
- OASIS – Click the additional information link in the upper right corner of the OASIS results for the vehicle. The emissions level is displayed in the detailed vehicle specification chart, located in the top section of the pop-up window.
- Determine the vehicle build date for 49 state, non-green state and federal emissions level calibration.
- If the vehicle was built on or before 5/14/2013 proceed to Step 6.
- If the vehicle was built on or after 5/15/2013 proceed to Step 7.
- Determine the vehicle build date for California, green state and 50 state emissions level calibration.

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.
