Vehicle Security Module (VSM) - SuperCab and SuperCrew: Removal

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.
CAUTION: Electronic modules are sensitive to static electrical charges. If exposed to these charges, damage may result.
NOTE: Prior to the removal of the module, it is necessary to upload the module configuration to a scan tool. This information must be downloaded into the new VSM after installation. For additional information, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION article, to carry out programmable module installation (PMI).
NOTE: For vehicle security module (VSM) programming, refer to steps a-d below.
  1. Turn the headlamp switch to the OFF position.
  2. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
  3. Open the drivers door.
  4. Unlock the doors using the interior door lock control switch.
    NOTE: The TPMS functionality is integral to the VSM.
    NOTE: A new VSM is delivered into a manufacturing mode with 6 pre-set DTCs. These DTCs require that successful configuration of the VSM occurs, then successful TPMS sensor training occurs, then a successful self-test occurs, including clearing of DTCs. This is required in order to clear the 6 manufacturing mode DTCs. They are as follows:
    • B2477 (Module Configuration Failure)
    • B2868 (Left Front Tire Pressure Sensor Fault)
    • B2869 (Right Front Tire Pressure Sensor Fault)
    • B2870 (Right Rear Tire Pressure Sensor Fault)
    • B2871 (Left Rear Tire Pressure Sensor Fault)
    • C2780 (ECU in Manufacturer Sub-state)
  1. Upload the module configuration information from the VSM into the scan tool. For additional information, refer to MODULE CONFIGURATION article.
  2. Turn the key to the OFF position.
  3. Remove the rear seat backrest. For additional information, refer to SEATING article.
