2015 Mustang Gt PCM issues

[CBurns]

Looking for some help, I have went the google research route, some forum digging and just getting too much conflicting information so Im here to ask what I thought would be easy to find questions and answers.

I have a 2015 Mustang GT manual, the pcm failed one of the coil drivers, confirmed by opening the PCM to see the driver is shorted. I am now looking to replace the pcm all together, while researching I havent found anything that answers my questions directly.

1. Can I get any pcm from ANY 2015-2017 mustang to replace it?
If I cant get any pcm, how would I know what PCM is compatible or is new the only option?
Can a used pcm have the VIN changed?
If so, is a dealership the only way to have it reprogrammed?

Thanks for any responses.

Having same issue.

No

If I cant get any pcm, how would I know what PCM is compatible or is new the only option?

Your PCM should be a
FR3A-12A650-EDB or FR3A-12A650-EDC if you're a V8 with manual transmission


Can a used pcm have the VIN changed?

Not by my dealer anyway

If so, is a dealership the only way to have it reprogrammed?

It's VIN locked, dealer can't change VIN on PCM, buy a new one.

FR3A-12A650-EDB are discontinued.
FR3A-12A650-EDC still available

I ended up repairing mine. If it's a coil driver failure let me know, I can very likely repair it for you and save you a ton $$$.
