HELP, ABS module broken after Firmware update...SOLVED

Post by 2B-4G10 »

I was up to no good this morning after writing a tune to my car i thought why not update ! I'm really regretful now and I can't go to the dealer as they will burn me :cry:

Once the update was done i had Christmas tree lights in my dashboard, basically everything that has to do with ABS is disabled now💔

Can someone please help me find the correct files, and if i did flash them will the car go back to normal?

I have a datalog that isn't helpful much and few pictures i took with my phone, first try messed it up, second try, i tried using the same firmware number that was mentioned in the log but to no avail.

Thank you, and god bless you

I am not an expert, it is better if you direct message the ForScan team if they can help. These are my ideas:

Did the flash process go smooth or did it fail at any file? If it failed at a file, try re-flashing without the failed file and then flash only the failed file after the others finish.

Also, the log you attached shows Code: U2101 - Control Module Configuration Incompatible. Did you check the As Built Data after the flash? I remeber reading somewhere that ABD data should be rewritten after a firmware flash. Try to to do it. Either from a back up if you have or from MotorCraft website. Also starting ForScan version 2.3.32 beta added automated loading factory As Built Data by VIN in configuration functions that you can use.

The process went smoothly, and i ran tested SBL beforehand, the only errors i got were in the pics. They said Part number mismatches!

I then did ACC and changed the ABS module. I'm getting the same ABS error, how did you find a solution?

I contacted support, there is link at the low end of the webpage, and they asked for my log files, figured out what i flashed wrong, then helped me configure it again with the right firmware codes this time.

and i followed their steps, easy peasy.
