Ford Focus MK3 "reset all adaptation" function

Post by FocusMK3 »

Hi, I need some help

I own an european MK3 Ford Focus, year 2011, 1.6 diesel, 115hp
I have used FORScan with ELS27 (purchased from Russian friends), and performed the function "reset all adaptation".
After 40km the Focus is very bad, engine rpm not stable, loud rattle when I accelerate, at cold start is worse, it seems that is not doing the self learning. I have no visible errors on dash (only one for faulty headlight because of HID xenon kit, after tweaking with foCCCus, but lights are ok)
Other info: on my car the main radio , navigation unit and the rear camera are aftermarket, but I don't think this is the issue. The fuel consumption was worse over the last few months.

Soon I will post the current DTC codes. I have cleared the DTC codes before the reset so we will see only newly created ones. Here THE OLD DTC CODES:

I read this in the log message

Code: Select all

===PCM DTC B1206:00-28===
Code: B1206 - Crash Occurred
so I decided to check BCM configuration with foCCCus. After readind BCM and IPC, the engine changed suddenly. Regular at low rpm and normal behaviour..
Strange, I dont know if the vehicle restored a previous copy from a backup, or if the self-learnig ended suddenly.. or the IPC reading restarted some module (all dash counters are resetted after IPC reading I think)

Now I have to deal with the current DTCs.
First of all:
someone know what this mean?

Code: Select all

===PCM DTC P02A2:00-2C===
Code: P02A2 - Cylinder 3 Balance - Fuel Trim at Max Limit

Re: Ford Focus MK3 "reset all adaptation" function

Post by FORScan »

The problem is that it seems the Reset All Adaptations function in case of Focus 3 1.6 TDCi clears important data related to injection. These data must be re-initalized in order to have engine working properly.

Please do the following:

1. Download this new test build:

http://forscan.org/download/FORScanSetu ... 191114.exe

2. Uninstall old version, install this new one.

3. Execute Service function "Reset pilot injection quantity learned values"

4. Clear all DTCs using Reset DTC button.

5. Drive the vehicle for 8 km at least

6. Check again the errors.

Please email us results. It would be interesting to see what are Fuel Injector correction factors before and after the procedure (you can use service function Read Fuel Injector Correction Factors)

Please use email for a quick feedback.

Thank you for your reply.
I will do the steps as soon as possible.

I suggest also to modify the software to WARN the owners of Focus 3 1.6 TDCi.
Also, I know at least another owner of Focus 3 1.6 TDCi, that have used this function without issues. Maybe the version of the original firmware is different.

I will write results.
Thanks again.

Your complaint is the 3rd one we got on this issue, and all 3 are for Focus Mk3 1.6 TDCi (although this function implemented on many models). We don't know how many Focus Mk3 1.6 TDCi users ran this function successfully, because people usually do not write us if everything is OK.

After analyzing this issue in the past we come to the conclusion this is not a normal PCM behaviour and most likely is a bug in PCM firmware. So, it is quite possible that in later (newer) calibration files this problem was fixed.

We actually think to remove this function for Focus Mk3 1.6 TDCi at all. Experience shows that warnings may not work (some people don't read them). In the meantime, we can try to collect some information about vehicles that experience this probelm - calibration info etc. By the way, can you please email us the calibration data for your vehicle (Configuration Tab, data displayed under Vehicle and PCM sections)?

hey - i do have the same issue after "adaptation reset"

The new app did not solved the problem, however thank you appreciate your work. Engine is loud and consumption is ...almost double. I drove the car for 12 km....but is still not the car i used to drive.

i am not able to upload new PCM calibration neither.

Cheers

Mishu, did you use the special build of the application provided some post above?
And did you run "Reset pilot injection quantity learned values" ?

Yes i did. I spent hours trying to learn the vehicle that i am the owner.... :)

Immediately after servicing there was a lot of rattle and diesel specific crank. After 30km the noise decreased.. A new start and the noise was back.
During my tests noticed HUGE fuel consumption. Unfortunately is still the same the consumption. Apparently the noise eased. Can you please let me know about the "learning" process how long it usually takes? Still hoping the car coming back to silent run with a decent fuel consumption. ( for your info 6th gear highway 100km/h autopilot plain road i gget a fuel average of 7.6l /100 km.
This is not good -in these conditions i used to get under or somewhere arround 5l/100km.
If you have any guidance i would appreciate.

cheers

Do i need to load calibration for PCM? If so i need to go to dealer to use IDS since focccus return an security error at 1% when attempting to load PCM .vbf.
