CPS Recall Update
Got my CPS replaced this morning. New part # is F7TZ-12K073-B, same as the old one except it now ends with a B instead of A. No hassle's, very friendly and quick service. Parts guy said no chance of getting a spare for awhile as they are in short supply. They requested 150 and only got a few, (so they say).
I also had them put in writing on the work order, no touching my PCM for any reason, just in case they might of had a mind too.
They also said that re-flash isn't a part of the recall but you just never know what goes on once the truck is out of sight.

Ummm, they never said they were going to test. It was bring it in and we will put the update in. I still had the original in mine so I guess it was a no contest kind of deal.
As it is listed in a safety issue recall it has to be replaced I would think. But don't quote me!

The sheet I saw at the dealer simply instructed them to look at the CPS. If it is black with a gold(i believe)bracket they are to replace it. If it is gray with silver bracket dont change. Also on that sheet was instructions for requesting refunds for previous CPS replacements. I didnt get any details on that, but when I track down my tow truck bill and cps invoice from last year I will see how far I get.

Ford must not have all the VINs listed yet. I checked my '03 350 yesterday and it wasn't on the list. Just checked it now and it is. If yours isn't listed, keep checking. Guess they will have a few to list.....
