HEX Code question?
How come Edge reads a longer number than what's on the firewall? The firewall shows 3 letters and one number. Edge reads this #RXCM5A6.HEX So would the HEX start at the X and read XCM5?

The Hex the EDGE gives you isnt even complete. I thnk a full strategic code is one number longer than the edge's. This is just Fords way of grouping similar ECU's. Why they have so many I couldnt tell you.

The number on the PCM label on the firewall is the Box code. If you've been reflashed for any reason, then it's best to get extract the code from the PCM.
The first 5 characters are the 'family' - the last two are usually required for full custom tuning.
F150's sure do have a lot of these, every MY.....
Experts - take it away from here ....

Someone conversant with this will be along shortly .....
Good luck.

!White - lemme download the dang manual (again, lol) and see if I can find the appropriate section for ya, as it appears all the other Edge ****'s don't wanna help here
Back in a sec ...
OK - I'm back - Diagnostic Menu ( page 18,19), from the Main menu - Version Info - will display your HEX code.
