Note: Depending on the purchased version some of these functions may not be available in your software

When you run ABRITES diagnostics for Ford/Mazda it will try to automatically detect the appropriate hardware interface and will connect with it. If the connection failed a message box with the explanation of the problem will appear.

By default, when ABRITES diagnostics for Ford/Mazda is started in the main list all available electronic control units are displayed. You can reduce the number of displayed units by specifying the vehicle context. To change the vehicle context select a desired model.

The device scanning function is helpful when you want to perform a quick DTC check of all available device units in a vehicle. When you click on the “Scan all” button on the main screen, a progress window will appear. The behavior of the scanning can be changed by the “Device Scanning” option in the “Options” tab.

The Abrites diagnostics for Ford/Mazda is a diagnostic software application, used together with AVDI (Abrites Vehicle Diangnostics Interface), that allows the user to perform standard and advanced diagnostics for Ford and Mazda vehicles.

Standard diagnostics include functions such as reading, identification and clearing of diagnostic trouble codes, module identification, extended module identification, service interval reset, actuator tests and many others.

The above described functions are standard features of the Abrites diagnostics for Ford/Mazda. They allow the user to determine the cause of an issue as well as provide assistance in repairing problems with the vehicles.

The advanced diagnostic functionality of the Abrites diagnostics for Ford/Mazda allows the user to perform key learning, module exchange and cluster calibration using new and used parts in a quick and comprehensible manner. The list of supported models is constantly being updated and currently includes almost every model.

The software is quick, easy and agile, and by being such it manages to exceed the user’s expectations and provide a diagnostic level higher than the main dealer tools every time.

With this function hardware and software variant, calibration level can be seen. This information is useful when an used ECU is needed to replace damaged original part.

ABRITES diagnostics for Ford/Mazda provide some diagnostic functions, which are specific only to our product or they are not supported by the other similar diagnostic tools. These functions are separated in the Special Functions list.

The list is located in the bottom right corner of the main screen. You can run a special function by double clicking on it or by selecting it and clicking on the button Open in the right of the list.

8.2 Key Learning

Go to the Special Functions screen. Select Key Learning.

8.4 PATS Key Learning

This procedure will add keys to the PATS system memory.

Keys already known to the PATS system will not be erased.

Note: The steps to make keys when the alarm is on are as follows:

1. Open the car - the alarm will go off (start 15 minutes countdown)

2. Open all car doors

3. Counting down on 12th minute the alarm will stop, the hazard lights will continue blinking

4. Wait for the hazard lights to stop blinking and this is another 3 minutes- we have 9 minutes left

5. Wait 9 minutes more and as soon as you hear the double “Beep” sound, you have 1 minute

timeframe to program new keys. (You program the keys between the 15th and 16th minute.)

Should the 16 minutes pass and you’re still not ready, the alarm will go off again and the same method

should be applied.

8.4.1 Key learning for Mazda CX-30 / Mazda 3 2019+

Using the latest MZ001 special function for Mazda you can easily program keys for the Mazda CX-30/Mazda 3 models, produced after 2019. This function requires no additional hardware other than your AVDI and a valid AMS.

The procedure is simple and the only specific is that it requires seven minutes of waiting time in the beginning to read the BCM. Please do not disconnect the AVDI and have a steady power supply of 12V going to the vehicle’s battery during this time. The function programs the key completely during this operation, starting the vehicle, remote and keyless (if available) are included.

1. Select the model you are working with

NB! In the cases of all keys lost it is always a good idea to delete previous keys before starting the key programming, this can be done by selecting the “Delete all keys (smart or mechanical)” option. Make sure to remove all keys from the car (at least 2 meters or 6ft.) before erasing.

2. Once you have selected the key learning menu and you have chosen the model of the car you will be

working with make sure to press the “Execute” button and then the software will lead you the rest of the

way. In the beginning you will see that the software will start calculating the security key to access the

BCM. This is where you need to wait 7 minutes.

3. Once the access is granted you will here two or three distinct beeping sounds.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions closely and you will be able to program keys.

8.5 PATS Erase All Keys

This procedure will erased all stored keys from the PATS system memory.

Once completed a minimum of 2 new keys must be programmed,

8.6 PATS Initialization

This procedure is used to match the PCM to IPC ( HEC ) and/or BCM or FIP as appropriate. It is

important that the key in the ignition is programmed to the vehicle, otherwise module initialization

is not possible.

PCM - Powertrain Control Module

HEC - Hybrid Electrical Cluster ( instrument cluster )

FIP - Fuel Injection Pump

8.7 Spare Key Programming Enable / Disable

Enables or disables the spare key programming procedure as listed in the Owners manual.

8.8 Unlimited Key Mode Enable / Disable

Unlimited key mode is intended for use by those customers who need more than 8 keys for their vehicle.

The unlimited key mode is set up by creating a special, unique unlimited transponder security key code and programming this key code into all of the vehicle keys so they contain the same key code.

The customer must choose an 8-digit number (except for 00000000 or 00000001) to be programmed into all of their vehicles keys (or, to all of the keys they want programmed to one vehicle). All customer vehicles keys (or all keys for one vehicle) need to use the same number. Valid digits are 0-9 and the letters A-F.

If the PID UNL_KEY_ID is not available, unlimited key mode is turned on, and must be turned off before viewing the stored code. At this time, unlimited keys may be programmed to the vehicle. To view/change the stored code, follow the procedure for disabling the unlimited key mode below. Monitor the PID UNL_KEY_ID and compare its value against the code chosen in Step 1. It should not be the same key code.

8.9 PATS OUT – IN code Calculator

The special function “PATS INcode Calculator” is commonly used together with Ford/Mazda IDS.

Open Special Functions list control and select OutIncode Calculator icon.

Start Ford IDS and connect to the car. Follow instructions and lets IDS read vehicle data. For example let you have this IDS screen.

The essential here is the line:

Outcode:- 0040 8EDB43 000000

This is “SINGLE” outcode.

It is used during key erasing or programming operation.

If ECU initialization is needed. IDS returns “DOUBLE” outcode:

Outcode:- 0044 8EDB43 ABCDEF

Note that “SINGLE” outcode has xx40 in the first digits group, and “DOUBLE” outcode has xx44.

Be sure that you enter xx44 ( PATS Outcode Prefix ) as it is provided from IDS.

Enter digits from Outcode line in the three edit boxes and press button “Calculate”.

After a short time calculated INCode will appear in Incode edit box. Enter calculated value in IDS.

8.10 Vehicle Identification Data ( VID ) Block

VID block is a array of 128 bytes present in PCM ( Powertrain Control Module ) in most of Ford/Mazda models.

VID consists of are many configurable vehicle parameters:

VIN

Step 10

During the write process, automatic backup of PMI data is performed.

If something going wrong, you can find backup PMI file in AVDI log folder.

PMI backup files have format “Backup_yyyymmdd_hh.mm.ss.pmi”.

Use “Load” and “Write” buttons to restore data.

8.12 Fuel Injector Programming (TDCi Engines)

Fuel Injector Correction Factors

There are 3 common situations that demand this function.

• After Injector replacement.
• Fuel Injection system calibration
• Drivability problems like Lack of power, Black smoke and the presence of DTC’s P2336, P2337, P2338 can often be fixed by re-entering the existing 4 injector codes. Support for more than 4 injectors has been added.

Note:

- On earlier model years ( pre-2003 ) it is not possible to read the actual injector codes.

- It is important to check the codes carefully before entering them.

- After entering an injector code the fuel system will initially run without any pilot injector sequence. The car must be driven for a few kilometers.

Engine Type: Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection

Capacity: 1.6L

Implement this service function if a new fuel injector has been installed.

Each injector has an individual 9 digit code called an injector correction factor.

This code applies individual compensation for each injector as a means of reducing the fuel delivery tolerance.

Perform this procedure to enter the required injector correction factor.

The injector correction factor is located on the head of the injector.

The injector correction factor is 8 digits long.

Ignore the last digit of the 9 digit code printed on the fuel injector.

Enter the injector correction factors in cylinder order.

To update or enter a new code, select the required injector and enter the relevant 8 digit code.

Enter all of the required codes, then press the return key displayed on the screen.

Engine Type: Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection

Capacity: 1.8L

Capacity: 2.0L

The data required for each injector can be found on the injector body.

It consists of 16 characters - numbers and letters.

If you are certain that the original injectors are still fitted to the engine, you may find the data on a lebel on the engine.

Engine Type: Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection

Capacity: 2.2L

Capacity: 2.4L

Capacity: 3.2L

Carry out this procedure if the Fuel Injector has been replaced:

Each injector has an individual 16 digit code called an injector correction factor.

This code applies individual compensation for each injector as a means of reducing the fuel delivery

tolerance.

Perform this procedure to enter the required injector correction factor.

The injector correction factor is located on the injector body.

To update or enter a new code, select the required injector and enter the relevant 16 digit code.

Enter all of the required codes, then press the return key displayed on the screen.

If a label listing the injector code is still present (on top of the engine), remove it.

Information on the label is no longer correct and could mislead other service technicians

The Pilot Correction Learn procedure must now be performed

Engine Type: Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection

Capacity: 2.2L

Perform this procedure if the following new component has been installed: Fuel Injector Each injector has an individual 6 digit code called an injector correction factor. This code applies individual compensation for each injector as a means of reducing the fuel delivery tolerance. Perform this procedure to enter the required injector correction factor. The injector correction factor is located on the injector body. Enter the injector correction factors in cylinder order. To update or enter a new code, select the required injector and enter the relevant code. Enter all of the required codes, then press the return key displayed on the screen.

Engine Type: Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection StgV

Capacity: 2.0L

Perform this procedure if the following new component has been installed: Fuel Injector

Each injector has an individual 20 digit code called an injector correction factor. This code applies individual compensation for each injector as a means of reducing the fuel delivery tolerance. Perform this procedure to enter the required injector correction factor. The injector correction factor is located on the injector body. Enter the injector correction factors in cylinder order. To update or enter a new code, select the required injector and enter the relevant code. Enter all of the required codes, then press the return key displayed on the screen.

This function is required by service centres when an Injector needs to be replaced, or there is a

driveability problem.

For 1.6 TDCi engines the each injector has an 8-digit calibration code stamped on the body.

For 1.8 , 2.0 , 2.2 and 2.4 TDCi engines the each injector has a 16-digit calibration code stamped on the body.

These codes relate to the electrical and structural characteristics of each injector, which are defined during production. The PCM must know the calibration codes for each injector in order to treat and operate the injectors in the correct manner. This helps to reduce emissions and improve performance. The code must be programmed in by communicating and downloading the code into the PCMs memory.

There are three common situations which demand this function.

1. After Injector replacement.

2. Fuel injection system ‘calibration’.

3. To cure drivability problems. Lack of power, black smoke and the presence of DTC’s:

P2336 - Cylinder 1 Above Knock Threshold

P2337 - Cylinder 2 Above Knock Threshold

P2338 - Cylinder 3 Above Knock Threshold

P2339 - Cylinder 4 Above Knock Threshold

can often be fixed by re-entering the existing 4 injector codes.

NOTE:

• On earlier model years (approx pre-2003) it is not possible to read the actual injector codes. On these vehicles you will see ’00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00’ or ‘FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF’ or a mixture.
• After entering an injector code the fuel system will initially run without any pilot injection sequence. The car must be driven for a few miles to correct this. The codes of the ORIGINAL injectors fitted to vehicle can be found on a label, which is fitted to the side of the engine or on the engine rocker top (if it has not yet been removed).

The codes of the ORIGINAL injectors fitted to vehicle can be found on a label, which is fitted to the side of the engine or on the engine rocker top (if it has not yet been removed).

The codes on the label are in the following format:

Where:

11111111 is the code for injector 1,

22222222 is the code for injector 2,

33333333 is the code for injector 3,

44444444 is the code for injector 4.

NOTE:

The injectors are in the physical order, NOT firing order.

When replacing an Injector the code stamped on the body of the new Injector must be programmed

into the PCM, NOT the code on the label.

Duratorq-Turbo Diesel Common Rail Injection 2.4L Carry out this procedure if the following component has been replaced: Fuel Injector Each injector has an individual 16 digit code called an injector correction factor. This code applies individual compensation for each injector as a means of reducing the fuel delivery tolerance. Perform this procedure to enter the required injector correction factor. The injector correction factor is located on the injector body. To update or enter a new code, select the required injector and enter the relevant 16 digit code. Enter all of the required codes, then press the return key displayed on the screen.

WARNING:

Before attempting Injector Programming it is necessary for the vehicle to be left stationary with the Engine off for at least 8 hours. This is to ensure that the engine is stone cold before Injector Programming is performed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in failure of the Injector Programming function and/or drivability problems.

• Up to 4 transmitters can be programmed.

Note: After programming Smart keys in Mazda, you may experience the “Keyless System Inspection

Required” error message on the dash. This happens when keys that are intended for Mazda3, Mazda6 are

programmed on Mazda CX3 and CX5 and vice versa. The only solution is to erase all Smart Keys and use

the correct keys for the model. If there is even one wrong key programmed, the same error will show up. It

has no effect on the overall performance of the car:

8.13 Dump Tool

Dump Tool is an instrument for editing the content of the EEPROM files of specific electronic control units. You have to select a unit and load a dump file. Then when you click on the “Parameters...” button you will see a pop-up window with all available parameters related to the chosen unit. Typical parameters are odometer, security code and VIN. For the airbag units the option clear crash data is available. You can modify them by clicking on the parameter value. When complete with modifications click on the OK button. The dump data will be updated accordingly. All necessary check sums will be regenerated.

9.1.1 Reset Keep Alive Memory (KAM)

This procedure will reset the Learned Values stored in the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) such as idle and fuel.

9.1.2 Reset the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Learned Values

This procedure must be carried out if a new diesel particulate filter is installed

The powertrain control module will continually learn the characteristics of certain components over time. There may be differences in the characteristics from the old and new components which will result in differences in the learned values. If a new component is installed the difference in learned values may result in poor driveability or set a diagnostic trouble code. This service function will reset the learned values of the old component. The learning process of the new component may occur immediately or over a number of drive cycles.

When doing all keys lost on a Ford Transit 2006, 2010, 2013+, when the alarm has been activated , the BCM is blocked and denies entering diagnostic session. This won’t allow programming/deleting keys and the procedure will fail.

The following few steps are the workaround to this issue:

1. Select the CCC function - Central Car Configuration

2. Read the config from the Master BCM module

3. Find parameter “11 Alarm”- there is a value “01 Alarm” Edit it to “02 No Alarm” and write it

4. Now you can enter the function to erase/program keys- the BCM is no longer blocked

5. Once done, enter the CCC and enable the alarm using the original parameter
