Then you may be in trouble. Me and SCC swapped boxes on our 2000 L's, and let me tell you, it wont start. The PATS system is built into that box, and my key would not start my truck with his box in it. You may be looking at new box + recode the keys? Good luck.

Bulldog: HotDog has a new one... he also mentions reprogamming - see: http://nloc.org/ubb/Forum2/HTML/000808.html
His email is in the profile if you need to email him.

Should be available from any Ford dealer.

Pretty damn cheap in my opinion... the ECU for my Mazduh is $1300!

Bull:

Contact David Mortensen at Quality Care (Ford Service Center). Let's just say he's really Lightning-friendly. He might be able to get you one. His number is (813)968-9820.

Decided I wasn't going to touch the "need a brain" thing with a ten foot pole. It would have been too easy...

Question

are you gonna make the dyno owners pay for it?
if not, a really big neon sign with some nasty remarks about their shop in the back of your truck would look sweet driving up and down the road in front of their shop!!!

I need a new CUX1 if anyone has one.
Must be new in the box. Read as "chip never installed". Let's just call it my spare (need the truck taken to the dealership for warranty work) chip.

What is it that the dyno guy does to it to fry it?

How do we avoid the same fate?

Tks, in advance, for your comment.
