“when PCM reprogramming,i met Ford VCM2 IDS Error Code:11.0×0 851082,what’s wrong ? Any effective solutions ? Thanks for your help. “

Well,this error usually resulted from the operation cannot begin because the PCM failed to complete a service procedure. You can Perform PMI on the PCM to resolve the issue this questions.And following are several workable methods that have been tested by forum members,i made a summary and post here for sharing

Solution 1 : Turn off your firewall . You should close the internet, anti-virus software before using.

Solution 2 : Uninstall fmp and reinstall it, Use 32 bit processor,because fmp would not work correctly with 64.

Solution 3 : If you are checking PCM for up-dates, Ford will advise on 6.0L powertrain if there is a reflash avail for TCM, FICM or PCM, if it states there is no update then all three modules are at latest level, no action required, I am aware it states to remove FICM relay prior to reflash FICM, this is a carryover note from when we used PDS or WDS to reflash the FICM, if you are using IDS with VMM interface its not required to remove the FICM relay, I have reflashed over 1000 of them this way over the last 7 years, as always make sure the battery stays in the sweet spot @ 13.5 volts, make sure your laptop has sufficient power, I always plug in, make sure cables to veh and laptop are safe from accidental disconnect, Good luck!

Solution 4 : If you try to VCM2 genuine or clone to make reprogaming well you need IDS V98.01 or higher.It would be good to check if during initiation programming interface output 18,5V on pin 13 in OBD connector.
