LCM Not Working

[whitey]

So you agree it not free.. Correct?

Do you also replace the other 3 relays?

Jim, we both know if i post up about my service again, itll get nuked, and ill have to sit in the corner. Lets not anger the moderators again with the same ol' same ol'. But one thing is certain, dont ever think you can call me out and not get a response back. To answer your question, the service i USED to offer was free....but that service isnt here anymore. If youd like to continue this conversation, you know where to find me...but in here, im done with this conversation.

I jumped on this repair the minute I got my letter and was the first one to get it done at the local Ford dealer. Had the part in 2 days. I never procrastinate.

Still waiting for my dealership to get some in stock.

I'd love to know if Ford fixed the problem with the OEM or did I just have another faulty LCM installed? But I won't worry because next time it breaks it's going out to Jim for repair.

Although I haven't seen one of the replacement LCM I'd bet that Ford changed nothing inside the LCM. I believe Ford is just counting on getting most vehicles over the 250k in mileage so the "new" LCM is out of warranty.

BTW.... In addition to a new heavy duty external relay for the headlights I also replace the three other relays on the LCM (with higher amp rating than OEM), for the same price. I still guaranty the LCM's I repair for the life of the car.....

One thing I've noticed is if I turn the lights on before I start the engine, the headlights work. If I start the engine then turn the lights on, the headlights do not work. Hopefully this will continue to work until Ford can replace my LCM.

Good luck!

When mine went bad sometimes activating the high beam switch would trick the relay into turning the lights on...get it fixed as soon as possible, they surely will fail for good at the worst time.

FBM provided mine a few years back, I dont worry about the LCM any longer , tho the recent letter from ford amused and pissed me off at the same time...

I believe the hi beams actually bypass the LCM relay.

BTW... Ford never had to issue a safety recall because you could still use the hi beams.

My LCM only failed once for like 2 seconds in 6 1/2 years of ownership. I'm really ok with that.

Ford says it could be 4-6 weeks before they have any LCM's available. I'm going to demand that they pay for a new one from Rock Auto or some other source until the factory Ford units are available. What are my chances this will happen?

Do you know what an "obese opportunity" is?
