2019 Ford Ranger MIL On Due To P0630 Invalid VIN Information

[@JamesBooher-n3t]

I work at a ford dealer,I'm going through the same thing you are.

[@JamesBooher-n3t]

I'm chasing my tail and our hotline is no help.

Can this be accomplished by a simply BCM reset? I have the same issue/code with my 2013 f150.

[@PhillipBailey]

I believe this code was generated by the aftermarket programmer corrupting the vin in the BCM. A simple reset or code clear won't do it. What is the history on your truck?

[@tonycappi317]

@@PhillipBailey My truck started throwing this code right after I installed sequential blinker lights on my door mirrors. I've never added any tuning or messed with the BCM or ECM. Very strange issue for me.

[@PhillipBailey]

@@tonycappi317 that's pretty strange. What brand of lights or mirrors did you install. Was it an engineered kit? Did you have the battery disconnected or BCM harnesses disconnected?

[@tonycappi317]

@@PhillipBailey Don't remember brand, probably just from China..lol No, I didn't disconnect battery during install. My stock mirrors didn't have front lights (only yellow reflectors) the lights i added, I had to splice 2 wires to the stock mirror lights. I may just uninstall them and see if it fixes it. Its a pain taking the mirror apart though..

The customer said all he has is a remote start,after m arket.

Fdrs is a lot better than ids just takes time getting used to.

Yes definitely a learning curve for sure but I do like it. I'm going to connect to my Lightning later while I have an active subscription just to compare to my Thinkdiag.
