How do I know if my Ficm relay is bad?
A dead FICM will therefore leave the system with no way to actuate an injector and the engine will not start. A weak or failing FICM will contribute to hard start, rough idle, and/or intermittent rough running conditions.
What causes no Ficm sync?
If there is no FICM SYNC while cranking the engine, then the problem may be your CMP/CKP. The FICM SYNC circuit relays information from the PCM to the FICM. FICM SYNC occurs through two circuits between the FICM and PCM. Check wiring harness to the CMP and CKP.
Will a bad ICP cause a no start?
Injector Control Pressure Sensor: When an ICP is failing, the engine runs extremely rough as load is imposed (under throttle), and the condition can eventually contribute to a 7.3L’s inability to start. If the engine runs smoothly with the connector unplugged, the ICP is bad.
What does a 6.0 Powerstroke need to start?
1 on page 38 shows a simple oil flow schematic for the 6.0L diesel engine. In order for the fuel injectors to operate, a minimum of 500 psi oil pressure is required for start-up. The high-pressure oil pump can deliver up to 3600 psi, but only if the low-pressure oil system delivers the oil to the high-pressure pump.
How long does it take to replace a Ficm?
No need to remove it, any hoses, or coolant. I just swapped out a FICM having no idea what I was doing and it took all of about 10 minutes.
Does a Ficm need to be programmed?
This half-shell repair costs less and does not require unit reprogramming, assuming that the vehicle has the latest software updates from Ford Motor Company. All three versions of Ford FICMs feature proprietary engineering enhancements available only from Genuine Ford Parts.
What does Ficm sync mean?
Powertrain Control Module. FICM SYNC. The FICM uses CMPO (Camshaft Position Sensor Output) and CKPO (Crankshaft Position Sensor Output) signals, which are sent by the PCM, to calculate FICM SYNC. FICM SYNC is calculated by the FICM and is the correlation between the camshaft pin and the crankshaft triggers.
What should ICP be at idle?
Normal readings at idle for a warm engine are 400-550 psi .
How long should a 6.0 Powerstroke take to start?
So far, it has started every time. However, it takes anywhere from 10 to 30 seconds to start. It used to start after a couple of seconds.
What are the symptoms of Ford 6.0 power stroke FICM?
Calibration concerns, powertrain component faults and FICM malfunctions may produce similar drivability concerns. NOTE: The most common symptoms of a failed FICM are: NO START or CONSTANT MISFIRE AT ALL ENGINE TEMPERATURES. Symptoms other than these are not likely to be caused by the Ford 6.0 FICM module.
How is FICM calculated in a power stroke engine?
FICM SYNC is calculated by the FICM and is the correlation between the camshaft pin and the crankshaft triggers. Once FICM SYNC is achieved, the FICM uses engine speed, MFDES (Mass Fuel Desired), EOT, and ICP to calculate fuel timing, pulse width, and pilot injection usage.
Why is my 4200 VT not cranking up?
If the engine ECM is not powering up either no key switch or battery power the engine will not crank. There should be an engine ECM fuse in the battery box make sure that circuit is good. There should be an ECM relay in the fuse box too. The ignition fuse was blown.
Where is the FICM on a Econoline 6.0L engine?
On 2004.25 6.0L engines, the dampers were moved to base of the bracket supporting the FICM. Econoline chassis have the FICM mounted in the engine compartment near the brake booster. The FICM is mounted with vibration dampers and they should be replaced upon completion of any service.
