Thanks for sharing Brian. Excellent meet up last night. I can’t share much about programming but I enjoy learning and seeing what everyone is up against in the real world. Have an enjoyable weekend 😊
THANK YOU BRIAN, PROGRAMMING CAN BE OK AT TIMES ONCE YOU PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL . YOUR VIDEOS ARE QUICK BUT TO THE POINT SO ALL IN ALL NO COMPLAINTS,,, WOULD LOVE TO SEE A BIT MORE ON TOOL USAGE... THANKS FOR YOUR TIME BRIAN !!!!!!!
Did ford ranger today. Also have latest ids. Somehow programming is taking very long. Just to program pcm took me an hour of waiting. I think it must be on Ford server where file is being downloaded. Great job as always
Hi Brian, I have an issue with my Ford Focus 2012, my TCM is broken, the recall from Ford is going to happen until February next years, this is a totally mess so I will do it by myself, Im getting the brand new TCM then program it by myself, do you know from where can I buy or borrow the VCM II? thanks a lot
Yes, Super Saturday is on. 2 day event. However it's now Nov 11th & 12th instead of 2nd wk of Oct. And yes, it's now the MAACA.... no longer ASA PA. Spot on Brian. See you at SS!!
Diagnostics is what I like more due to the challenge. Programming is great for making money, but really boring doing th same thing over and over. Programming is interesting when learing a new module or vehicle. Almost like asking a tech if they like doing oilchanges and brakes or do they like diag job or engine work.
Problem: my car stopped starting and I got a new starter and checked wires and they are all good. Solution: I got a working TCM from a Ford Focus 2012 with part number A2C30743102 to fit my Ford Fiesta 2011 who had a TCM with part number A2C53377498. The car now starts but it’s failing to be programmed because the “gears” are not shifting (it’s automatic). Any advice on what I should try to do now? Thanks!
Is the software the same for the focus and fiesta? I installed a fiesta tcm on focus and can’t get the cluster to register gear position, I did attempt to do the relearns most of them worked but failed at clutch adjustment. I do have a code for failure to communicate with tcm and cluster. These codes are not present with the original tcm. Thanks a lot.
We have one in the shop right now exhibiting the exact same symptoms, customer had a Tcm from Amazon installed and someone programmed it at his house, I am very tempted to condemn that part but also looking for more info like you lol.
Hey did you ever found a solution? Just did the same thing here from focus to a fiesta I turn on ignition in the car and can’t move gears and can’t program with forscan also
@@Noctmain you need to get the correct tcm. I’ve heard it’s possible to use the fiesta tcm but dealer would have to flash it and more times than not that won’t work either. I ordered mine from jegs. It was supposed to be a 1 month wait but it ended up being 3.5 months.
When load the 125.01 software, it asks for an activation license. I had to upgrade my older IDS software. What do I need to to to active the software. I know software is free but not sure. Can you help me with this?
@@BrianMann216 Thank you!! I am not mobile but sometimes it would be nice to do programming away from the shop but i was never brave enough to try to use the phone as a hotspot. And thank you for all the time you put in to make the videos!!

I'm glad it worked out in the end. Programming can be nerve racking at times. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching.. I am glad it went finished as well! That error made me make the video!

Hey Brian. Love that new camera auto focus.
It does pretty good most of the time. Sony ZV-1

You can purchase a vcm3 directly from ford . Motorcraftservice.com, look under diagnostic tool support.
Hello I am having programming / software issues with the Tcm I bought after market. Any suggestions on how to resolve the issue
Yes, Super Saturday is on. 2 day event. However it's now Nov 11th & 12th instead of 2nd wk of Oct. And yes, it's now the MAACA.... no longer ASA PA. Spot on Brian. See you at SS!!
Hi Cuba! I am looking forward to it! Hopefully I can round up some techs from Cleveland to get over there with me.
Lol that key on, key off cycling threw me for a loop the other day!😂 Fjds and maxisys vcmi ftw!
Hey Brian how do you get rid of a previous PMI failed message using ford Fjds?
Good job Mr Brian.
I’ve been using fjds with a snap on pass thru and it’s always challenging programming. Is ids much better?
I have not used fjds, I only have used fmp( ford module prigramming,the program before fjds) I found ifs to be better.
What do you like most , diagnostic or programming ?

Thanks for sharing
Hey Brian, how do you get rid of a PMI failed message? On FJds won’t let me do any other function till it that error is gone.
Usually have to force und the session ctrl alr delete

@@matthewkepley5631 thanks man, sucks so you had to order another one too? I hate ford so much
@@Noctmain ya I order the correct one from jegs. Was supposed to be a 1 month wait but ended up being 3.

It is not free.
Growing the full man chew? Mines about to come off through the last fall to now.
Im about done with it LOL tried for 2 weeks, not me..
Do you use your phone as a hotspot?
Yes most of the time, until my "unlimited" plan slows me down then I switch to a dedicated hot spot.
@@BrianMann216 Thank you!! I am not mobile but sometimes it would be nice to do programming away from the shop but i was never brave enough to try to use the phone as a hotspot. And thank you for all the time you put in to make the videos!!
ids often screw up
Can’t do manual as built data?
No, not on a blank TCM
I'm having the same problem with IDS I have to reset my labtop
yes its been still glitching for me, had it lock on me 1st thing this am and had to restart!
