Clearing Trouble Codes

NOTE: Ford DOES NOT provide procedures other than those described to retrieve or clear trouble codes.

NOTE: If a wheel speed signal fault is detected, the amber (ABS) indicator cannot be reset with the Key OFF and Key ON method. The vehicle must be driven over 12 km/h (8 mph) for the anti-lock brake control module to do a re-check of the system before the ABS indicator is turned OFF.

After the failures have been repaired and you have confirmed the vehicle functions properly, use NGS Tester to clear all DTCs from the anti-lock brake control module.

The anti-lock brake control module will automatically clear DTCs that have not recurred after 80 ignition cycles, provided that the vehicle has reached 24 km/h (15 mph) between each ignition cycle. (Simply switching the ignition switch OFF and ON 80 times will not clear the DTCs).
