Ford transit UK speed limited

[toniz]

Hi guys,

I have a Transit imported from UK limited to 60miles .
What is the common speed limiter units used in UK, or should i look for limitation in ECU?

Regards

As far as I know, IDS is the only tool to take this off. Some tools SAY they can but in practice they cannot.

What year is the transit?

[toniz]

2003 model

I do have IDS, what is the procedure?

[accarrepairs]

That year is normally in the pcm flash, ids would probably be the best bet for this. The dealers around my way don't charge much to do these. The 2007 models can be done with dec superscan normally.

i think autoboss can remove the limiter also

i think autoboss can remove the limiter alsodone afew with autoboss , very easy , l have ids but autoboss is faster than flashing pcm


ids .. module programming bcm download and set speed limiter function to off or go into programing down load peraimeters from car turn off speed limiter then re send back to van

My autoboss does not give service functions on 2003 model.

[smirnoff_rules]

might have done later ones , not sure about 2003 , later ones are in pcm menu

2003 model needs a full reflash with ids, during the procedure it asks about speed limiter,
autoboss and other tools cannot help you on this you need good knowledge with IDS only

Use your vcm ids go in to PCM service functions/ speed limit flash full pump job done in 2003 van its only in pump ecu.....

Thanks kev

Thanks guys, unfortunately my VCM just decided to fry itself while connected to the car.
Will have to wait for new unit.

No need to fully reflash with ids if you read the parameters from the pcm you can the just change speed limiter yes to no and write it back takes about 5 mins with ids

Does anybody know if Fo-com can do this? Whether early or late models.

@Cleevesy Can you explain more how your method works, usually do this as Kevfield says but can take a while.
