I've done this three times, and am thankful for using this reset process. I will be getting the TCM replaced per the latest letter from Ford. Thanks for posting this.

I tried getting the TCM replaced on my 2015 focus. The dealer said it didn't need it . But it needs a clutch replacement for $3,500. It has been reported that there is a shortage of TCMs.

Dude, you saved my Ass. 2007 Mercury montego Premier. I was 30 miles out at a job interview, stopped for gas on the way home, and started the car. TCM is dead, and it's stuck in low gear. Then I found your video. The check engine light is still on, but it's shifting right for now. THANKS AGAIN for the video.

I'm having TCM problems and have to wait to get it replaced. But, when it acts up & goes into limp mode with check engine light on, I do this. Afterwards, I have to start up and shut down the car a few times before check engine light goes off and I can drive normally again until tcm glitches again. This has saved me several times.

That helped me - I have Ford Kuga Mk2 with MPS6 DCT450 (powershift) that stopped switching to any gears. I wasn't able to put it in reverse, nor drive or sport mode. It happened after some problem while driving and car just shut off itself. On parking lot gearbox wasn''t applying R or D or S. It was just Parking or Neutra. After doing that procedure of reset it just alive :) WOW BTW. Step 7 should be "turn ingintion OFF and quickly turn your car ON (turn on not only ignition - but turn on the car) - and then Step 8, which is "Put it to D or S". I put mine on D and it worked.

2013 Escape. My project is trying to disconnect the negative battery cable in order to "reset" the transmission scheme. Will disconnecting the battery neg / ground where it is bolted to the firewall enough to clear out & "reset" the transmission scheme memory settings, or will the cable connected at the negative battery post need to be disconnected too?

In the video its stated that the engine shouldn't be started when turning on the vehicle to go through the steps, but being that my vehicle has a push button start I can't shift into the required gears wuthout starting the engine with the push button ignition...If it can be done as mentioned in this video, how exactly do I turn on my vehicle without starting the engine with the push button?

Ford Focus 2012. 55,000 miles. Car always serviced by Ford. I had 7 transmission errors including “transmission overheating” and “transmission error” and transmission malfunction, service now”. All errors occurred in stop and go traffic, both city and highway, uphill in hot summer months. I turned the engine off for 10 minutes, restarted and was able to continue driving. TCM was replaced by Ford about 3 years ago. Then last week in highway stop and go very hot, I had the transmission error again 5 times. I finally left the car on the side of the road. I came back at night to get my car. Car started right away and I drove home without any problem. 5 days later I brought the car to Ford to be checked. According to Ford there were no error transmission codes. Is this legit that error codes reset themselves if the car restarts and can drive or did I get b.s. handed to me?

My 2016 Mondeo had 163000.00 miles on it and the issue I have from around 45000 miles is that it goes into a sort of safe mode where on the dash says seek owners manual , the way I get over this is to pull over as the car will not excellerate as it cannot select the next gear - I will pull over and turn the car off and wait for 20 ish seconds and then turn it back on and it resets the computer or something and then I drive off until it happens again - it may not happen again for thousands of miles or may be just 1 mile - any thoughts guys - Cheers (UK)

@@bocean07 don’t worry just go to a local certified Ford dealer the TCM is under warranty across for every Focus vehicle, Google customer satisfaction program Ford input your VIN# and print the TCM warranty information and head to the dealer, my car got fixed in two weeks with factory parts and I was provided with a vehicle loaner, just be kind and polite with the guys at the service center everything is a slow process at the beginning but it works at the end, remember is the TCM customer satisfaction program.
