I just replaced the Body Security Module on this truck, and I am not sure if this should just plug and play, or if there is a relearn procedure or something similar. Any ideas??

Thanks,
Ted

I had an 02 gem module that had to be reprogrammed?

It has been my experience that most of this newer stuff needs programed to match the vehicle. I would not say its that way with every one but most of them at least. Usually if I get my modules from the dealer, they do the programing at no charge. I tend to like that arrangement.

for some reason, now i'm not 100% but won't fords read with a certain key function? i remember on older ones if you left the key on for 20 minutes and then off for a time and then back on the gem would read and program.
