Notes
PCM change. As-Built field: Bumper Air Dam - Front (1=Less Front Bumper Air Dam). The air dam is an aero/fuel-economy device, not emissions hardware, but it is part of the certified configuration; warranty risk. Usually done for off-road clearance.
How to apply it
- Back up every module's As-Built data and keep the files somewhere safe.
- Connect FORScan with a battery maintainer on, ignition ON and engine OFF.
- Open Configuration and Programming, choose the PCM module, open As-Built Format and edit only the digit described by the source.
- Write, follow any module reset prompt, cycle the ignition, then confirm the feature and check for new trouble codes.
