When a module such as a PCM is reprogrammed, it is not removed from the vehicle. Flash reprogramming is an important part of repairs and tune-ups on most and newer cars. It is generally a combined control unit, consisting of the engine control unit ECU and the transmission control unit TCU.Īlmost all new vehicles today are now flash programmable. A power-train control module, abbreviated PCM, is an automotive component, a control unit, used on motor vehicles.

It is possible I have used or loosed all the adidive? It is a way to see if something is wrong with the tank or if I have additive left? I used the Forscan to "refill" tank and the engine malfunction disappeared, subsequently the errors too. Now, after the refill, I drove about 10 km. Strange thing, before I have filled the additive tank, I had no errors at all and I drove about km. Today, after I have puted fuel in the tank, the engine malfunction alert happened and errors that I have low additive level. I have refilled the additive tank last year and later on, cleaned the DPF. Beware of the filling kit though, I got sent the wrong one. Aftermarket PAT fluid from ebay or amazon comes in 1 litre bottles. I'm hoping its going to be easy and stright forward! I'll keep you posted. I've refilled it and reset the EML but the Engine Malfuntion light and bleeper still operate so think I will try my skills next with the 'Forscan' software.

I've resently had the 'Engine Malfunction' light appear and the EML with the P code fuel additive control module and sure enough on inspection I've found my Eloys tank to be empty! Meant to reply to this earlier but it was good to meet you the other week, glad I could help solve the issue for you by resetting the FACM counter.

If you are struggling to get it sorted send me a PM I'm not far from J Not sure what the software you have is able to do but it clears codes but doesn't have the option to reset the counter so the code will keep coming back. I can reset the FACM counter for you if you can get the car to me. Check the status of the flap sensor, that's working fine. I've tried the "Fuel flap" method, of which there is much talk difficult to find on the forums but that hasn't done the trick either. Previously, when the code first appeared I was able to clear it, for a few days. I have a "Ford-VCM-OBD" interface and software Bought from the web which allegedly clears the codes and re-reads them, however I cannot seem to clear the codes and the dashboard message. The "Engine System Fault" message on the dashboard after a few moments running was the initial indication of a problem. This will undoubtedly be a familiar topic, which I have myself come across however I'm hoping to resolve an issue or two along the way at, hopefully, short notice.
