Process for replacing ECM/PCM ECM/PCM calibration code?
I am trying to replace my ecm on my 2003 f150 4.6l v8 xl triton truck but I am confused on the whole programming and calibration part. First, where on the picture I attached is the calibration code? Second, if I am going to buy a used or re manufactured ECM, what do I need to do programing and calibrating wise to get it to work with my car? I am confused on the whole process. Any help would be appreciated

You can order it by the part number 3L3A-12A650-DD (engineering number) or the "tear tag" DOI3. You'll still need a perameter reset between the HEC (Instrument Cluster) and the replacement PCM. You'll probably need to see the dealer for that.

interested in cost of having the dealer flash one. Mine went bad probably getting a new one. but I am far from a ford dealer and will have to tow it. so also wonder what people have paid to re-flash it.

Cost varies shop to shop, the industry standard amount of time for such a process is 1hr labor.
