Update - the shop spent a couple more hours and ended up getting it programmed correctly and it’s working just fine!

That would have been nice to know. I only have FORScan lite, I should probably get the full version. I checked connections the best I could, I couldn’t find any issues, abnormal voltage, or short to ground. We did connect FORScan and found we were able to talk to all the other modules...

@joegr you’ve been the king here anytime I’ve had an issue.. any input?

Update - I purchased the PCM I listed above with matching tear tag. I consulted with the shop first and they confirmed the matching numbers I needed. Installed new PCM in car, and brought everything to the shop for programming. They called and were able to get it programmed, and 2 new keys...

John, this is the same video previously attached. I watched it, just confirming my understanding that the tear tag has to match. Also, attempting to confirm the previous comment from Amsterdutch who stated a possibility of the PCM having to be from the same year model vehicle.

I can’t say ye or ne. All I can tell you is in the above referenced video, the guy mentions the 4 digit # on a tear tag is the same on both PCM’s. In addition, my guy at the shop told me a 3-4 digit number would have to match. I have no clue on the year matching. Looking for a little insight...

Someone help me out on this to confirm The shop told me the numbers had to match on the computers for him to be able to rewrite the junkyard computer. Attaching a picture for reference. Is the number I’m looking to match “EBG1” ?

Dealership said they could do it, only problem is they are booked 30 days out. Spoke with another reputable repair shop in town that said he was able to do it same day. HOWEVER - he said the numbers on the tag on the PCM have to match. I need to check them one day this week. If matching, he...

Thanks for the info! Hope I can find somebody with the program that doesn’t want my first born child as payment. My understanding of why it won’t currently start (somebody correct me if I’m wrong) is because the key has to be programmed to the PCM - is this accurate? If so, could I possibly...

Hey Everyone, long time no see. back to work on a lincoln. This time, we have a 2006 LS 3.9. Daughter & Son in Law were driving. Got a call the car died, seen/smelled smoke. Car turns over, but wouldn't start. Went to check it out. Tested EVERY fuse, relay, and diode with a meter. all test...

Got a 2003 LS V8. Need center AC Dash Vent. (Probably saying it wrong) Any color will do.

fan running fine. condenser and radiator clean.

AC will freeze you while car is driving, or holding 2kRPM. while sitting at idle, not very cold at all. you still agree low freon?

test ran with suggested method. got 2 readings. 1 with engine off, 1 with engine on. Off - Ambient Temp around 90 Degrees - Low 105PSI High 125PSI On, recirculate off, 60 degree temp, full blast, 2kRPM - Low 55PSI High - 195 what say ye?

Got it! Perfect. I do not remember readings on high side, he just said it was within range. However, now I can see settings were incorrect, I will perform new reading and update after.

great to hear. help me clarify, when checking pressure, does it make a difference if recirculate, Auto, etc are on? I had pressure checked, and low side was significantly high (around 70-75 if I remember correctly). But, noticed the Auto Climate was on. Seems to be cooler when setting manual, no...

I’m having same issue. Also, while idling, I can rev up to 1500-2000 RPM and notice it gets cold also. Is yours the same?

Well, in this case, good, hopefully it's nothing more than wheels being balanced then (the ghetto 20" wheels they had on there are probably shot too, and i still have them on the rear, searching for more 17" wheels to make her stock again.

Honestly, im thinking its going to be wheels/tires. going to check them out. First i thought it was because the rear ball joint was completely wore out, but that didn't fix the problem. going to see if I can get them balanced this week and take it from there. I'm just happy most of the other...

Sorry for the hiatus Went ahead and replaced entire fuel pump assembly, had access to the whole thing. Jet pump was broken. Solved fuel gauge issue and one of the codes. changed out wheel sensor on rear passenger side, no more ABS light, traction control light, or Failsafe. Problem solved...
