Ok just had a play and i managed to get to enter the code,

It changes the ccc option in module programming to a different list with more options and also appeared to give me icons to read and write dumps,

But I ran out of time to play more and see what options did, I did try to disable my seat belt off warning buzzer but it failed to work, Other peoples input would be nice once you test it...

See my photos, get the first page up as shown then click update/ special functions on your right hand side


Enter the code 60274

If i have helped click the two magic buttons for me

I tried that when I posted that info.
It's for special CCC editing. I still couldn't anything to appear in Special Function.

Well it worked right away for me as you can see in my images it supplied me with options to work with, I think its going to allow me to save the various as built configuration files to the desktop for instance,And look at the files in a hex editor then i can have a safe play with my setting and see what i can turn on and off like the annoying seat belt reminder for instance.

You say you could not get anything to appear or you mean could not get anything to work?

I got it all to appear quite easily.

And as for getting nothing to appear in special function i had two option in there, read config file and modify, Also for me the tool box module programming, 3rd option down had changed to allow what i would normally alter within ccc as well as a as built option which i do not normally see on this year of car, It had speed items for one listed, were as this is found on later fords than mine in the pcm on first page.

I found where IDS stores these codes:
C:\Program Files\Ford Motor Company\IDS\Runtime\Registry.xml
Under <key name="UPDATEFUNCTIONS">
Going to try them out.

As I remember, registry.xml does not affect. wink

Not yet; it could be the 3 day temp license. Maybe you need a real license?
