AS BUILT CODES FOR 2013 BOSS 302

[Narek Nikoghosyan]

Does anyone have oasis or the Ford access? I've been chasing after AS BUILT codes for over a year now. I swapped my 2012 cluster for a 2013 with all the parameter capabilities and track apps. I even got the ABS module from a 13 Boss. I've been searching for the as built codes for the longest time and also have not been able to calibrate the ABS module. I've given it to a specific car electrician too but he ended accidentally removing all the track app options. Anyone have any knowledge in this subject? Anything helps

Sounds like a pain. maybe try one of the big tuners??? like AED or Lund?

 

[Narek Nikoghosyan]

I'll give that a shot too, I've been wanting to get a tune with Shaun at AED for a bit now anyway

I'm in the same boat, have premium cluster installed ford would only program the keys and not put the as built codes in their. I have the vcm tool but cannot get the software to install.

Not sure if you got this resolved but you can buy short-term access from Motorcraftservice.com and get AS-BUILT. You'll need the IDS or FJDS software and do a PMI.

Yea, I still haven't resolved it. It seems like that site only has key codes

I just went to https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt and it was free and when I entered my VIN it brought up all the as-built parameters. The site presented the hexadecimal codes as well as the file to import into IDS. I haven't dabbled with Forscan and the other tools where you can modify this stuff yet, but it seems to match the formatting of all the information I've seen so far.

@mwjscn is correct here. When replacing a module on a Ford, in addition to being programmed, the As-Built tables are the specific configuration data (like variant coding on BMW). The software prompts you to enter the correct data and then writes it to the module. You can do this with an FJDS subscription and a J2534 device (like this one: mongoose)

Nice it all makes some sense now. I believe I also have that forscan. I'll give it a shot. I've given the car to a professional programmer and the guy couldn't do it it haha. But I'm assuming this video give a good step by step right?

@Narek Nikoghosyan I watched about the first five minutes of that video just to get a flavor of what they were trying to do. Some of their advice was OK, some was awful.

In your case, I think your problem is coding the ABS module (you are swapping a 2013 ABS module)? Be aware that there are variations among model years that can cause problems. Check the ECU part numbers. Are they the same? The module may plug in directly but not program correctly.

If the ECUs are the same part # the easy way to fix your problem is to get AS-Built data from a 2013 and use that to code it. The only risk you may run is a VIN mismatch, but you would not know that until you attempt to program it.

Most ABS modules come from Ford already programmed, they just need to be coded with As-Built, so my advice is contingent on what the software prompts you for.

Thanks for the tips, I realized I'm in over my head but I'll give it a try and keep you guys posted

 

[baugustine]

Here are the two parts from the catalog.


They look the same, so you should be OK. Get the build code from a 2013 and code it with the new data.

I just bought a car with these issues. Did you find a way to get yours to work?

 

[Narek Nikoghosyan]

Unfortunately I haven't had the time to try it, kinda hoping I can find someone and show them these steps so they can handle it.
