Hi, was looking at a few FICM's on ebay just out intrest to see how much $$ they are, most vendors say you have to send your PCM to them to '' marry up " to the FICM (or vice versa) which makes me think you cannot simply go to the bone yard and grab a FICM and put it in your truck.
I was going to do what the first person in this thread did, buy a spare FICM and send it off to be reprogrammed so I dont lay up my truck but now Im unsure. I was going to try and get a early (03-04) unit thinking it might not have been reflashed by Ford and try it first but Im afraid I'll mess some costly electronics up.
My buddy owns a wrecking yard and aways gives me first pick on new arrivals and says I can have a FICM for a $100 any year which I thought I would install first to try for fun but like I said earlier Im unsure if that can be done without problems.
Gord.
