According to
[email protected], Ford doesn't have an actual black box, compared to what GM installs in their vehicles..I'm not really sure what Ford calls thier device, but it doesn't store or record info. in the same way as GM's meaning that with GM's..there is no way of getting around their setup..However with Ford's, there is a way.. First, you return you're vehicle back to stock programming, Second, disconnect the negative battery terminal. Third, after an hour.. reconnect the battery. and finally make sure to drive at least 50 miles or so, before taking you're vehicle in for service..If you follow each step, you should be able to get around it, without Ford knowing as to whether or not, you made any changes...Anyway, hope this helps..
also look at it this way..whenever you take you're vehicle in for service..Ford ends up re-flashing you're computer, each and every time any factory repair work is performed, so how could they really prove who did the actual re-flash anyhow and when ?? just a thought..
