Customer Driven Preferences
There are customer preference items that can or need to be configured on this vehicle. These are items that the customer may or may not want to
have enabled. Typically, customer preference items can be toggled on or off by the use of a Ford compatible scan tool. You may need to ask the
customer which preferences they had enabled prior to installation of the new module.
To carry out the customer configuration process, use a Ford Service Function (FSF) card and the NGS Tester. Refer to the Customer Preference
Index for modules on the vehicle that have customer preference items. See: Customer Preference Index
Configure the items as needed with a Ford compatible scan tool.
