Hi guys, for more than 1 year I have been driving with the Service RSC now, abs light, traction control and abs light on and not to mention the dreaded sound when the Service RSC comes on. Well, I was finally able to find a used ABS model with the pump attached to it.
I was looking into doing the repairs myself since it's very easy to remove. I also know I can pull the information from my original abs module to program it to the replacement I bought.
So here is what I need to know. What software do I need for my laptop to program my VIN and old ABS module information to the new ABS module I will be installing.
Is it Forscan with the OBD2 dongle?
I heard about IDS but is it free to download?
And if it's IDS, what do I need to use IDS and where can I find what I need.
Over one year driving with this damm annoying Service RSC now on my dash is driving me crazy but Ford wants $$ $, Even local shops here what over $1,400 to repair.
