2.5 Reading Vehicle Strategy

Ford will often times update the computer in your vehicle. The new update ID (calibration ID) that is
loaded into your computer is called a strategy. Many times your SCT dealer will ask you to read your
vehicle’s strategy for many reasons which includes creating custom tunes.

1. Once the device is powered on using the OBDII cable provided.
2. Scroll down and select “VEHICLE INFO”. You will be prompted to turn the key to the ON

position.

3. Make sure you turn the key forward to the position just before the crank position. Your

dashboard should be lit with indicator lights. Select “Continue”

4. Once the X4 has detected you turned the key on, it will proceed to display your VIN, COMM and

ECU Strategy.

2.6 Reading/Clearing Vehicle DTCs


If you are experiencing a check engine light on your dashboard, you will be able to retrieve the code and
read the cause of the code using your X4. You will also have the ability to clear these codes if you have
fixed the problem that was causing the check engine light.

“Vehicle Diagnostics”. Press the center button on the X4 keypad to select.

2. Use the up or down arrow button to choose “Read” or “Clear” DTC Codes.

will automatically detect and display any codes that may be present. You will be able to
read the definition of the code by scrolling and selecting the code being displayed. To go
back to the list of DTC’s, highlight and select the back button.

b. CLEAR DTC: Turn the vehicle key to the ON position and select “Continue”. Device
