Pcm Calibrations

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 20 other vehicles, including the 2002 Mercury Villager, 2002 Mercury Mountaineer, 2002 Lincoln Navigator, 2002 Lincoln Blackwood, and 2002 Ford Windstar. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Powertrain calibration information is printed in the lower right corner of the Vehicle Emission Control Label. Only the base calibration information is printed. Revision levels will not appear. For the current model year, Ford Motor Company is using 3 different protocols which describe powertrain base calibration. These protocols are designed to provide worldwide standardization for vehicle calibration. If electronic calibration strategy has been used since 1998 and carried into current model year, Protocol 1 will be used. See Fig 1. If electronic calibration strategy has been used since 1999 and is carried into current model year, Protocol 2 will be used. See Fig 2. For electronic calibration strategies introduced since the 2000 model year, Protocol 3 will be used. See Fig 3. See PROTOCOL 3 CODE DESCRIPTIONS .
