Tribute 2WD V6-3.0L (2008)
Some PCMs contain a memory area called a vehicle identification (VID) block. The PCM VID block commonly stores powertrain configuration items
such as VIN, tire size, axle ratio, and whether or not the vehicle is equipped with speed control.
As-Built Data
As-Built data is a VIN specific module configuration record. During vehicle build, the configuration from all modules is downloaded and stored in the
As-Built database. As-Built data will not reflect customer preference items that have been changed from the default state. These items will need to be
changed using programmable parameters after the module is configured.
NOTE: It is not necessary to obtain As-Built data unless directed to do so by the scan tool. This data may be accessed from the technician service
publication website.
Module Addresses for As-Built Entry
The following chart lists module As-Built data addresses:
