1994.5 computer Numbers

Hello
I have been talking to the guys at XDP about a TS 6 pos. mod chip for my 7.3. but they need the Cach # off the computer to program the chip. I have given them all the numbers off the side and gone to my ford dealer and can not find the number they want? They tell me it should be 3 letters and 1 # any help would be great.
Thanks
HB

Did you look on the BACK of the PCM, accessible by removing the fasteners for the parking brake pedal/release assembly and pulling it away from the sidewall of the cab?

My numbers were on the engine side where the harness connector is. Pretty sure I Had to use a mirror to read it. Mine said BEG8

Sorry on the side of the computer
It is inside the engine compartment on the fender.
I didn't unbolt it to see if there are numbers on the back.
should I ?

The XXXn code should be in both locations. Less likely to be worn off on the interior location.

Not trying to be a *****, but are you sure you are looking at the pcm? The idm is on the inner fender, the pcm is in the firewall..
