Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 16-0129
Dated September 26, 2016
New! REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT
Non-Ford Part Usage:
Vehicles that are still covered by the 8 years/80,000-mile Emissions warranty coverage MUST
be serviced with a NEW Ford Motor Company TCM.
Vehicles outside of or exceeding the 8 years/80,000-mile coverage are authorized to use a
used Ford Motor Company TCM, a refurbished original Ford TCM, or an aftermarket TCM that
will successfully complete the required Ford software updates.
PROGRAM TERMS
Ford is extending the warranty coverage on the DPS6 automatic transmission TCM to 10 years of
service or 150,000 miles from the warranty start date of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. This
extended warranty coverage will address intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement
while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. If a vehicle has already exceeded either the time or the
mileage limits, this coverage will last through June 30, 2017. Coverage is automatically transferred to
subsequent owners.
NOTE: This program DOES NOT apply to vehicles that qualify for repairs under New Vehicle Limited
Warranty Powertrain coverage or Emissions Warranty coverage. Repairs for vehicles covered by New
Vehicle Limited Warranty or Emissions Warranty should be claimed following Warranty & Policy
Manual guidelines. Refer to TSB 16-0044 for repairs covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty or
Emissions Warranty.
NOTE: Limited coverage is available for long-term rental coverage, using 21A08.

Copyright 2022 Ford Motor Company
REASON FOR PROVIDING EXTENDED COVERAGE
Some of the affected vehicles may exhibit intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement
while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. These symptoms are usually accompanied by a “Check
Engine” light illuminated on the instrument cluster. These concerns may be caused by electrical circuit
failures within the TCM. If the transmission is not serviced, these symptoms may become more
frequent and of longer duration.
SERVICE ACTION
If an affected vehicle exhibits intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement while driving,
no-start, or a lack of power AND it is determined the TCM is the casual part, dealers are authorized to
replace the TCM under this program. This program coverage begins after the expiration of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty Powertrain coverage and Emissions Warranty coverage. This service must
be performed at no charge to the vehicle owner.
NOTE: As of August 4, 2015, vehicles repaired under 14M02 do not require the completion of 15B22
(if open in OASIS). A claim to 14M02 will automatically close 15B22.
OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE
Owner notification began on February 21, 2015. Owners of Focus vehicles that were added to the
program population were notified beginning the week of February 13, 2017. Dealers should repair any
affected vehicles that exhibit the covered condition whether or not the customer has received a letter.

COVERAGE
OVERVIEW
Some of the affected vehicles may exhibit intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement
while driving, no-start, or a lack of power. These symptoms are usually accompanied by a “Check Engine”
light illuminated on the instrument cluster. These concerns may be caused by electrical circuit failures
within the transmission control module.
If an affected vehicle exhibits intermittent symptoms of loss of transmission engagement while driving,
no-start, or a lack of power AND it is determined the TCM is the casual part, dealers are authorized to
replace the TCM under this program providing the vehicle is no longer eligible for repair under the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty Powertrain coverage or Emissions Warranty coverage. This service must be
performed at no charge to the vehicle owner.
NOTE: This program extends the coverage of the TCM to 10 years of service or 150,000 miles from
the warranty start date of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. Coverage is automatically
transferred to subsequent owners.
NOTE: This program DOES NOT apply to vehicles that qualify for repairs under New Vehicle Limited
Warranty Powertrain coverage or Emissions Warranty coverage.
NOTE: As of August 4, 2015, vehicles repaired under 14M02 do not require the completion of 15B22
(if open in OASIS). If both programs are open and 14M02 is performed, only claim 14M02.
A claim to 14M02 will automatically close 15B22.
REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT
Labor Allowances: An inspect-only labor allowance is now available in the event that the Transmission
Control Module is not the cause of loss of transmission engagement while driving, no-start, or lack of
power.
Parts Requirements: The part number for the transmission control module has been updated.

Module Reprogramming - General Information
NOTE: Reprogram appropriate vehicle modules and clear all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) after
programming. For DTCs generated after reprogramming, follow normal diagnostic service
procedures.
1. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery.
2. Perform reprogramming using IDS release 96.03 or higher.
NOTE: Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com.
NOTE: Follow the IDS on-screen instructions to complete the reprogramming procedure.
3. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery, once reprogramming has completed.
Important Information for Module Programming
NOTE: When programming or reprogramming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure
programming completes without errors.
• Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and
connect IDS/scan tool to a power source.
• Inspect Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool
connections are not interrupted during programming.
• A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC
system, etc.) and close doors.
• Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio,
etc.).
• Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
• Disable IDS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
• Create all sessions Key On Engine Off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will
cause errors within the programming inhale process.

Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module:
NEVER DELETE THE ORIGINAL SESSION!
a. Obtain the original IDS that was used when the programming error occurred during Module
Reprogramming (MR) or Programmable Module Installation (PMI).
b. Disconnect the VCM from the Data Link Connector (DLC) and the IDS.
c. Reconnect the VCM to IDS and then connect to the DLC. Once reconnected, the VCM icon should
appear in the corner of the IDS screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the IDS to VCM connection.
d. Locate the ORIGINAL vehicle session when programming failed. This should be the last session used
in most cases. If not, use the session created on the date that the programming failed.
NOTE: If the original session is not listed in the previous session list, click the ''Recycle Bin'' icon at the
lower right of the previous session screen. This loads any deleted sessions and allows you to
look through them. Double-click the session to restore it.
e. Once the session is loaded, the failed process should resume automatically.
f. If programming does not resume automatically, proceed to the Module Programming menu and select
the previously attempted process, PMI or MR.
g. Follow all on-screen prompts/instructions.
h. The last screen on the IDS may list additional steps required to complete the programming process.
Make sure all applicable steps listed on the screen are followed in order.
