FICM compatability
The dealer reflashed my '04 F350 6.0L after they told me that they wouldn't. I took it in with the buzz flash and it left without the buzz flash and a huge loss of power and about a mpg loss. My Autoengineuity scanner shows a VXBC9N8 calibration. I assume that is the inductive heat flash. I am interested in your FICM tuning so that I can get back the truck that I bought that had power. I am not interested in modding the truck. I just want the original power back. The truck is completely stock and it will probably remain so. It is a 11/03 manufacture date. I bought a spare FICM a couple of days ago. It is from a '06. Can that FICM work in my '04 with your flash? Or have I wasted some money?

Any FICM for 03-07 will work. So just send your new one to Bill and He'll flash it and send it back to you. I think you'll be suprised how much power has been flashed away since 11 of 2003....your orginal build date.

Unfortunately, we do not have any FICMs available at this time. Your best bet is to go on line and check Craig's List or some of the online salvage yards.
FICM turnaround is usually same day or at worst 24 hours. Take care.

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.
