Here is the jumper leads I used in the video, for the price they are worth it to do it right, you can buy them here-

So I decided to do some videos on common procedures specific to Fords. This is a must after any engine or transmission repair and you don’t have access to a scan tool to clear the KAM manually. Many times the pcm will still be using the learned values and compensating for the problem you just repaired. This procedure is good for all model years late 80’s to current but is much more important on 2004+ model years that incorporate a electronic throttle body system. Dual Battery setups require both batteries to be disconnected.

I am not an electrician so I don't understand very well this procedure. It seems like you are creating a short circuit by connecting both ends to the positive instead of draining the remaining energy. It seems harmful for the pcm, but not sure. Would connecting both ends together (out of the batt) do the same effect of draining the energy inside the car's electronics, maybe also turning on the headlights? Would this work on a 08 explorer? Thanks
And would an obd not clear it
My o5 Navi isn't shifting to 5th or 6th I just replaced the tranny would this be a cause
Dose it work for ford fusion hybrid 2016?
Don't arc from red to negative. Just disconnect black battery terminal. Then turn headlight switch on. Almost instantly drains your auxiliary power with no damages. Leaves current empty. Then, switch key over but don't turn engine over. Leave your foot on brake and wait. It's gonna reset and sweep all guages. Then you're good.
hi..i'm planning to replace my engine support of my ford fiesta 2014 1.5l but i'm worried with the ecu resetting issue if i remove the battery, any inputs on these..thanks from Philippines..
Thank you for the info, best info for ford's in YouTube
will this fix the rough drive of 2010 ford edge? Hesitation at 1500-2000 rpm. diagnosed with cyl 2 misfire. help!
I'm glad I found you.
Whats the best method to drive a manual after the reset to learn?
So you’re telling me you can take it out off like that ground it off on the other side on the positive to the negative with a negative unplugged on the battery and I’ll reset transmission shift mind shifts way too soon and second gear it’ll throw you in the seat and the transmission has been rebuilt
Thanks for the video! Literally cannot find a dealership with a technician available to look at this issue for me on my F-150 under warranty.
What scan tool you use to diagnose code?
Will this affect the ECM that’s been tuned and deleted ? I’m having hard 5/4 Down shifts .. not clanking but harder than before tunes .
This didn't work clearing P1000 on 06 Crown Vic 4.6L, caused I think by junkie AutoZone radiator fan module… wouldn't care except it disables my AC! Tried three times, up to an hour with jumper wire. Is it possible my ignition key needs to be on while jumper is discharging PCM? My only option is Ford service manual 14 step (60-90 min patience testing) Drive Cycle routine two times in a row! Finally half way thru after third try, I finally got the trip counter to increment…guess i can't follow directions and was messing up step 10! Sorry if this has already been answered but YouTube doesn't give us a way to search 100s of comments
Have two batteries in my truck, should i do both or one?
Hi i have a ford escape 2010 3.0
I have this error in diagnostic p1633 keep alive power too low failure i checked fuses all ok how can i solve
So could I disconnect the positive cable from the battery also, and just connect the positive and negative cables separate from the post and loop them with the jumper to drain those capacitors
I have a 2003 Ford f150 with a 4.6 triton and everytime I change something else it seems to get worse, I've replaced egr valve solenoid yesterday and now it's idleing very rough, almost don't even want to let it idle cause it sounds so bad, I'ma bout to scream lmao, and changed tranny fluid, does the cam shaft sensor have to be put in a certain way, I'm fixing to try this just found your video, and it has a smell as soon as I tried to start it this morning. I feel like I'm just wasting money on it I hope this works
Can the truck be at operating temp already and this still work is like to replace my battery in the parking lot when I by it but the truck will be at operating temp
Will this work for my 2913 f-150 3.7?
Can this be done on a 2008 hybrid
I have an early 03 with 2 battery's do I need to do the same on the 2 battery's
Where can I find those green wires you used to reset it !!!!??? THANK YOU IN ADVANCED !
Gonna try this next, replaced my cam phasers and every parts, and still have a tapping coming from the cam phaser area
Glad I found this video. 2010 escape with late/ hard shifts and rough and idles with rpm fluctuations. After clearing and relearning the pcm she’s holding a steady idle and shifting properly. Definitely wasn’t looking forward to replacing a transmission in a vehicle with less than 120k miles. Thank you so much!
02 f 150 over haul engine, cranks but won't start. What's the secret to start? Turn the key on, step on the brakes 3 times, 10 times
Does this work on 2013 Explorer Police Utilities with the 3.7L engine?…
