Rough idle stall
One of the 3V springs broke in Cylinder 3 within a month of purchase from a mom-and-pop dealer from out of town with as is warranty (similar to your purchase). I have been communicative with the dealer since the purchase and already put good Google reviews for them. I contacted them with the...- pratik

PCM replacement and ABS programming led to whining noise
Hi all, I kept getting P2240 code (related to O2 sensor, even after sensor replacement) after harness repair and my mechanic thinks it is bad PCM. So, I changed PCM with a junkyard PCM using J2534 connector (Amazon) and FJDS subscription of 2 days. I clicked install new PCM, which copied...- pratik

Wipers stopped working. Not the multi function switch... Ideas??
Do you happen to have Pinpoint Test Z? I have error codes P0390 and P0394 with engine light, which spontaneously went away (but stored P0390 and P0394 remained). Pinpoint Test DR, on DR3, asked to do Pinpoint Test Z, but I can't find it. TIA!- pratik

No rear heat or ac
Can you/someone provide me with Pinpoint Test Z for 2013 Expi? I had codes P0390 and P0394 on engine light (engine light went away by its own, but the stored codes were still visible on OBD2 scanner) and on following Pinpoint Test DR, on DR3 it directed me to do Pinpoint Test Z. TIA!- pratik

Emissions cat. monitor not ready!!!!

The PCM was giving me random P2629 code (Bank 2, Sensor 1 - or precatalytic O2 sensor on driver side). Replacing O2 sensor didn't fix the...- pratik

Code P2629 on my Ford Expedition 2013 EL XLT 2x4 - how to carry out the PCM self-check?
Update 6/10/22: Tried another PCM from a junkyard, and that made my car drive little lethargic and the P0024 code came up! No P2629 code. The original PCM does not show the code P0024. The car drives really awesome with the original PCM, except the on-and-off P2629. What to do? Thank you!- pratik

IDS, FJDS and J2534
Hi, Does anyone have experience with PCM programming using FJDS and J2534? It seems like my Toyota J2534 mini VCI can be used for programming my PCM using FJDS, but would appreciate any tips before I try things out and potentially screw up even more :-D Thank you!- pratik

Code P2629 on my Ford Expedition 2013 EL XLT 2x4 - how to carry out the PCM self-check?
Update 5/19/22: I got a PCM from car-parts.com (Eastern Automotive, ~$150) and fit it to my Expi and have it programmed (Go Powertrain, $199). This resulted in somewhat smooth drive (or is it an illusion?) but engine light came on in a matter of minutes with code P0024 (Exhaust Camshaft...- pratik

Purchasing Third hand expedition
You need to stick an OBD2 scanner to the car (socket under the steering wheel) and read the error codes (diagnostic troubleshooting codes or DTC). You can drive the car to AutoZone or O'Reilly and they will do it for free. If you are not planning to invest any time/money into it (I suggest you...- pratik

Purchasing Third hand expedition
What is the DTC code on it? It can be as simple as replacing the O2 sensor, or it can be more involved like replacing catalytic converter, repairing exhaust, changing the wiring, or even replacing the PCM. That said, what is the price point and house much (money/effort/time) are you willing to...- pratik

PCM part numbers different between label and engineering diagnostics - UPDATE: this is STANDARD!!!
TL/DR: UPDATE 5/19/22: The CL1T14C226BB is the most up-to-date official Ford firmware for the PCM. So, there is no need for a concern! Hi all, I have been having multiple intermittent issues for a few months now (dimming of headlights, dining of odometer, O2 sensor error codes, funny idling...- pratik

Code P2629 on my Ford Expedition 2013 EL XLT 2x4 - how to carry out the PCM self-check?
Hi all, Since February I have been getting the DTC P2629, which used to come on monthly basis, but then every few days, and lately within a matter of days/hours/minutes. 2 weeks ago I tried replacing HO2S on pre-catalytic converter on driver side (Bank 2, Sensor 1), but that did not help, and...- pratik
