Here is a link to the Ford literature on the 6.0L FICM.

It contains description, operation, and general diagnostic information.

heck yeah, thank you....

 

I put good use to that a month or so ago,great info. The tech that flashed the FICM thought I was crazy,a bricklayer coming into to fix his truck in the lot by replacing his FICM.He was of the mind that the FICM was either working or not, the truck won't run with a bad ficm mind set.(it was running on maybe 6 when I drove in).He blushed when she fired up and was as smooth as silk.I love my truck and this FTE!

 

After my FICM was changed last week and the appropriate Inductive heat flash was prog. i was shocked to see how easy and quick my truck started after sitting out for 9hrs in temps of -37 deg below while i was at work. this is without being plugged in.

 

Looks like the original link "dried up".
