Communication With a Saleen-Calibrated PCM (Powertrain Control Module)
•
The PCM in each Saleen vehicle is programmed with specific performance and
calibration data.
•
Saleen-programmed PCMs have a unique “PCM ID” number. This number can be
found on the Saleen label affixed to the PCM or it can be looked up using a
diagnostic tool (IDS, WDS, or NGS; for 2005 and newer vehicles [except S7] always
use IDS if available). All Saleen PCM ID numbers end in “.HEX”
•
PCMs in Saleen vehicles can ONLY be re-programmed (re-flashed) by Saleen. If
re-programming is needed, the PCM must be sent back to Saleen.
•
A P0605 DTC will be present in each Saleen-programmed PCM. This code can not
be permanently cleared.
•
When using an IDS or WDS diagnostic tool to access Saleen-programmed PCMs,
the tool may prompt you to upgrade the PCM to the latest Ford stock program. DO
NOT DO THIS. If the PCM is programmed to the Ford stock program, or any other
program, the engine will not run properly and Saleen will void the vehicle warranty.
