Factory Authorized Modifications?

On my "new" (to me) 2000 F150 4X4 there is a sticker under the hood that says Factory Authorized Modifications. Written with a sharpie on this sticker are three codes: YU7A, EHA and (I think) 12AU50.

Can anyone tell me where I can go to find what these modifications are?

Thanks for your help,
Doc

I did some searches and couldn't really come up with anything, except the "YU7A" appears to be related to the software version of the ECU. Keep us updated on what you find, this is a pretty interesting mystery.

They are usually just emissions updates or recalls that were done.

The PCM (12A650) was probably just reprogrammed to a later calibration for a driveability or emissions concern.
The PCM would now be the same as a YU7A-12A650-EHA part number.

Yes, I'll bet that is correct. Racerguy put them in the order in which they were written on the sticker. I had them in the wrong order because I memorized them and ran inside and wrote them in the post out of order.

Darn, and I thought it was that Factory Authorized Modification of adding that Jack Roush Nascar engine.

No, that's a secret modification that doesn't get a sticker
