J2534 Reprogramming
Servicing newer, increasingly complicated vehicles has put independent repair shops
at a disadvantage when compared to auto dealerships that have access to the latest
service tools and knowledge databases. Accurately diagnosing and repairing many
of these newer vehicles used to require full access to expensive factory service tools.
At the center of this problem lies the ability to reprogram the computers inside newer
automobiles. Diagnosing and repairing vehicles often requires reprogramming
(reflashing) the vehicle with the latest updates available from the factory. After a vehicle
is assembled and sold at a new car dealership, the automaker's engineering groups
often fix common problems found in the field by releasing a new reflash. The new flash
is not a recall, and therefore most vehicles on the road will not get the update unless
they are brought in to the dealership for servicing. These re-flashes could fix transmission
shifting problems, hesitation, rough idle, drivability, check engine lights, emissions quality,
poor performance, or any other of a number of common problems. Without the reflashing
capabilities, independent repair shops may spend time and money trying to repair an issue
with hard parts that cannot be repaired without a calibration flash update.
Before the Mongoose Ford was available, a shop had to invest in a Factory Service tool or other
costly reprogramming system to update calibrations in modern vehicles. Mongoose Ford is a great
alternative for independent repair shops that want to reprogram calibrations in most Ford, Lincoln,
Mercury, and Mazda vehicles without purchasing expensive, proprietary tools. The Mongoose Ford
will work with Ford Module Programming (FPM) at motorcraftservice.com to reprogram J1850PWM
and CAN Ford modules.
