Thanks mate for the video, I’ll get a new key and test this.

you saved my life

Thanks I'm going to order that OBDLink EX and download the Forscan software on my laptop and give this a try. I replaced the PCM on my 2000 F150 and need to do a parameter reset. I only have one key but ordered a blank transponder style that I'll have cut before running the program. That's my plan, fingers crossed!

@@MrWontstopthefunk I ordered a new one from Protech auto systems out of Florida, essentially preflashed. Call them they’ll make sure they get you what you need and can give you some direction on the process. I paid $250. I searched a lot for a reputable place and glad I went with them. I still don’t remember exactly how I did it but Forscan was a must for programming the key. I think it ended up working with my original key and not the new key I bought, but I still had to run some processes in Forscan for the original key to work with the new pcm. Lots of googling and KZread and Once I plugged in the new brain, did some widgets in Forscan, it worked first try. I tried starting it just putting in the pcm but no-go. Fiddled with Forscan after watching KZread and it started right up and been running perfect since.

I’m having issues all over. I’m trying to program a new pcm but when I go to config/program click on PCM module configuration (as built format), hit run service, it throws the warning about changing configurations is not safe and have a ABD backup, click ok, it loads to 50% and says service procedure has been interrupted and it won’t go any further. Any help would be great. I’m lost.

What was wrong with your old PCM? You would need to save the original program, swap PCM , and then write to new PCM from the save file.

I have 2 cards for mazda cx 9 from 2008. I have a problem with keyless go. Once it works fine and in a moment I have to start the car with a metal key. The key flashes red while driving. Not when the immo is flashing and I can't start the car. I suspect that it is the keyless module or the fault of one of the antennas. Can I use a forscan to reprogram my cards? Is it safe?

hi there i have downloaded forscan because i need another key prorammed ,the only trouble is , i have got the immobillizer flashing,so if i get another key cut when it comes to waiting for new key to be programmed the ignition will be turned off,but if i turn ignition back on,the immobillizer starts again,it takes hundreds of turns with the key to get it going again what i have done is delete my only key,so when i press the clutch down car wont start

That forscan, is it just free to download and you have to pay to use (license) or is it all around free (license and all)? I've seen mixed answers and would like to know. If paid, how long do the licenses last?

Hi very good tutorial, but I have a different problem. I have two PCM's both are configurated with my VIN but when I swap to the old one where I have more HP I cant start the engine. Is it enough that I will do a module initialization and it will start my old PCM. Cuz what I understand IPC is not sync with PCM. My worries are that I have only one key but 2 are programmed., I've lost one. My car is Ford Focus mk3 ST 2016 with keyless system.Can you give my an advice I will be more than glad.

You will have to have 2 keys to delete and reprogram new keys from the start. You can't get around that even at the dealer. It doesn't matter if the 2 keys haven't been programmed to the car before. As long as it's the correct Pats key and turns in the ignition before you start it will work out. It doesn't have to start the vehicle before the reprograming.

You need to have a second programable key. Get an uncut key on either Amazon or Ebay and have a local lock smith cut the key. To program the new key plus the old key just follow the video. It will delete any current keys programmed to the car. You have to have 2 keys to do this, the car won't let you otherwise.
