JW1982 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 The F-COM (previously FoCOM) diagnostic software only works in combination with the F-COM/FoCOM diagnostic interface. Without this interface you can not use this software. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW1982 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 To download this software you need the serial number of the F-COM/FoCOM interface. Some older F-COM/FoCOM interfaces however are no longer supported. These interfaces only work with the older software versions. Same applies to Chinese clones. Using recent F-COM software with a Chinese Clone will result in a defective (blocked) interface. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The F-COM (previously FoCOM) diagnostic system was one of the first Ford specific diagnostic systems that offered similar functionality than the Ford IDS diagnostic system but for a much lower price. 10 years ago this system was basically the only affordable diagnostic system that offered PATS immobilizer programming functionality. Another major advantage was that the support was excellent. New software versions vere released almost every day to solve problems and include new functionality. However a few Years ago the free Forscan program became a serious alternative for the F-COM diagnostic system. I owned the F-COM diagnostic system for over 10 Years. However after I bought myself the Ford IDS diagnostic system the F-COM system became redundant so i sold it. 18 hours ago, mrmetallica said: does it go from free to pay for ? is it available for just the software F-COM/FoCOM has never been free. It has always been a paid diagnostic system. The latest F-COM software version can be downloaded from the F-COM website. The serial number of the diagnostic interface is required as username/password. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW1982 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Most clones have serial number **EDEA6412**. This serial can be used to download the software (note that Microsoft Edge prevents the files from downloading correctly so you have to use a different browser). (I will remove the serial tomorrow to prevent the serial from being blacklisted) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
