It was a given that a module VIN mismatch would cause a no-start. Gone are the days of just swapping a module from one car to the next. I had to program an audio amplifier to the VIN recently..... :rolls-eyes:
Yup, pretty much any module has to be programmed to the car now. The exception is some used modules will work once plugged in off the old vin # in the module. But you may show a mismatch code.
I was thinking that the BCM and PCM need to be synchronized to allow fuel enable. This is why "swaptronics" can be a nightmare sometimes. Hopefully once that is synched it will run but who knows what other problems are there. We shall see. In part 2 or maybe 3 or 4👍🤣.
Man Ivan, I’m here in Houston. Flood cars after Hurricane Harvey and the biblical flood were everywhere for years down here. VIN reprogramming is sometimes a gamble at best on certain vehicles. This battle you engaged in should be fun to watch and see what the final outcome will be.
Always seemed strange to me why anyone would buy a known flood car. Even if you get it up and running, the moisture that has settled in every crease and crevice will eventually cause some kind of issue. To each their own I guess. Thanks Ivan! and Merry Christmas to you and yours and everyone else!
You may have keys that work in the ignition but who even knows if the chips in the keys are programmed into the PCM and immobilizer. Proper procedure is to program the BCM with correct information, make sure the other modules have the correct VIN (even the radio) and then program the PCM. The PCM must be done from scratch with proper VIN and engine information and you might need to disable the immobilizer in order to do it because its likely that none of those keys are programmed in that PCM.
Alright, a holiday special.... Starting it on the 22nd, so this looks like its gonna be a tough diag with multiple parts and plot twists... Can't wait... Merry Christmas, Ivan....
You can't really go forward with the code set and changing things if the vin is mismatch. That's why modules don't like each other lol!! I kept thinking if the starter wire is green crusty hence no start.
Ivan, Happy New Year 2022 🥂🎉🎊 for you, your loved ones and subscribers and viewers that return for your knowledge, wisdom 🤓 and entertainment with auto diagnostics ✌🏼
I like the new TPMS that doesn't use in tire pressure sensors, it uses what the car already has, ABS. As tire pressure drops, diameter of tire decreases, causing increase in RPM on that tire which satisfies DOT requirement of 25% low vs other tires.
My mums 2016 Honda Jazz has this method of TPMS. It's a disaster - it literally goes off non stop. I was driving it once and it went off and I ignored it and a tyre was actually deflating with a slow puncture! Meanwhile my dads Toyota Avensis has a conventional TPMS system that hasn't ever triggered.
Interesting case study there Ivan! Looking forward to seeing how the PMC & BCM modules are to be programmed to the vehicle and see it run as I also have another customer's Ford Vehicle that may need a new PCM. Anticipating for the 2nd part. Merry Christmas Ivan and Family! Cheers!
@@dizzy2020 The vocabulary you are using makes it sound like you are not from the US. Ford US offers software online anybody can download for a small fee. Last time I did it, it was $50 for a 2 day subscription. You need a laptop/internet at the car, a j2534 box and software dowloaded from Ford. Download the software for bcm/pcm and program keys. Good to go. My setup consist of a used Cardaq J2534 tool I bought used off Ebay for $300, a refurbished laptop I use specifically for programming I purchased for $150.

It will be interesting if that different year module can be programmed. If it works, then that will be a bonus worth remembering for this particular model Ford.

Gotta love the hack stuff as in the stuff that gets sold to people that should've went to a junkyard for parts. They say there's a parts shortage, used car market shortage. This car could've supplied some good parts for used wrecks, etc that need parts, unused portion could've been recycled saving even more money and not had the junk on the interstates, highways, etc.
That immobilizer likely got set from the car floating and bumping into objects or the tow truck process bumping the vehicle hard enough to enable it or maybe some other "crash" event.
Parameter reset should fix the configuration evrytime there are modules replaced , just like chrysler proxy configuration relearn .I would still check that power and grounds on that antitheft module.
PCM/BCM need to be reprogrammed, then the keys at the end of the procedure using 2 keys. Needs to be done with software downloaded from Ford with a J2534 or another passthrough device.

Ivan, I think you are on the right track. BCM & ECM will need to be programmed to the vehicles Vin# But are Ford modules capable of being programmed to different Vins?

when will people learn to not play with flood vehicles, every single wire, computer/electronic device in there has been directly wet or had condensation wetting and penetration into everything. pretty much their only use is being stripped to only metal and used for a racing platform with custom electrical. Maybe they'll eventually learn to quit throwing away their $$$$. the only exception is flood that never went past 1/4 way up the wheels, so nothing but part of tire and rim was under. things are not like old model T fords, where you drain the water from everything refill with oil, fuel and lamp oil/candles for headlights 🤣🤪🤣🤪

Hopefully Ford will do it but I doubt it, they'll probably say there system won't allow it and that is probably true

They made an Escort in 2017? I'll take a 1987 model year instead 😁
Maybe the donor PCM from the 2014 was involved in a crash? Could that be why the crash pid was active.
