Vehicle Security Module (VSM) - Regular Cab: Installation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Position the VSM and install the 2 screws.
- Tighten to 7 Nm (62 lb-in).
- Connect the 3 (built before 12/2006) or 2 (built after 12/2006) VSM electrical connectors.
- Install the LH B-pillar trim panel.
- Download the VSM configuration information from the scan tool to the VSM. For additional information, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION article.
- Train the tire pressure sensors. For additional information, refer to WHEELS AND TIRES article.
- Carry out the VSM on-demand self-test by clearing DTCs and then retrieving DTCs to confirm all DTCs have been cleared.
NOTE:
When successful, this step provides the calibration necessary for the VSM operation and clears DTC B2477. The clearing of the DTC indicates the calibration data has been successfully downloaded to the VSM.
NOTE:
When successful, this step clears DTCs B2868, B2869, B2870 and B2871. The clearing of these DTCs indicates the VSM has recognized the tire pressure sensors during the training procedure.
NOTE:
DTC C2780 will not clear if any other DTCs are present in the VSM.
NOTE:
This step is required to clear DTC C2780, allow the VSM to exit the manufacturing mode, and to make sure there are no other concerns with the newly programmed VSM.
