climate controls not on display after fcdim replaced

Recommended Posts

i replaced the screen myself after getting a $600 quote from my dealership to fix my blank sync screen on my radio/display it is a sync basic with no touch controls. one of the listed part # i found on ford parts was no longer available but show just as lcd screen. found the other part # on ebay motors as led screen as well (used). after install it works!!! but, my duel climate control does not show up on it. dont know if I need to reload past update or use different lcd. after removed old one which was only 2 years old (had been replaced under warrantee) had different letters on the end of the part number (ES7T-18B955-CA)post-17307-0-46679000-1560400952_thumb.jpg

Swapping used parts is always risky.

You should check with your ford parts department if the part number of your used part is compatible with your vehicles vin. Many part numbers change up several times. If it is compatible, then it needs to be programmed into your vehicle using dealer tools, a process called as-built. Independent shops usually can do this also.

Sounds like you need to get the configuration updated in the software like billford mentions. These parts are used in so many different cars but the different features have to be turned on and off in the software depending on how the car is equipped.
