Ford Diagnostic Software
 
The Ford IDS and FDRS software is the only software that provides complete diagnostic coverage, including module programming and key programming of 1996 to current and future Ford and Lincoln vehicles. The IDS/FDRS will operate on PC platforms meeting the minimum specifications and having a valid software license subscription. IDS/FDRS software license subscriptions are available online at the PTS, Ford Fleet, or Motorcraft service website.

Vehicle Communication Module 3 (VCM3)
