Not really. But you need to pmi the abs to the 2013 vin. Sal did a nice write up on the complete procedure on SVTP.
LEXiiON
I did last night I started a new session then when I got to the screen to confirm my vin I put in a 2013 then I went to PMI the ABS and asked to confirm the vin I said it was the wrong vin and put the same 2013 vin in. Then I had to go manually download the calibration files but It said the the operation was completed successfully. the I did the yaw calibration that went fine as well but my abs light was still flashing and my traction control and advancetrac lights are still on so I tried to clear a CDTC It cleared a lot but I still had one for abs that was incompatible software I believe it was code 57 or 51 can't remember.
I just brought the car to the dealership today and I did not get any progress on this I sat down with the tech and we PMI'ed the ABS and I still had DTC code 57 Incompatible software on my cluster so does anyone have zero's phone # where I can give him a call and try to troubleshoot this?

This is what worked for me ... you sure you have the correct ABS module?? Was you ABS module NEW or USED? Mine was USED. I think other folks have gotten defective ABS modules and when they replaced them they PMI'd successfully.

Its good to hear from you my friend and I bought a used 2014 module eBay listing:http://www.ebay.com/itm/171236733701?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT and it says it PMI's successfully but the code is still there so far I have my SJB, IPC, PCM flashed successfully and are working its just the BCMB and ABS that are not working BCMB gives me a module config failed error when i try as-built and abs is well the problem I am trying to fix now. do I need to do my BCE module too or is that the same as the BCM?
Dan sadly this did not work I used a vin from a 2014 VIN: 1ZVBP8AM2E5245359 but I still had code 57 on my screen could you pm zero's number so I can try and call him and see if he can shed some light on this?
Got this finally working and a bonus for v6 users it unlocks advanctrak sport mode! But I got the new module from tasca parts for about $200 and took the Vcm II originally I ran a 3.9s 0-30 but then I turned the sport mode on and I ran a 2.8s! Here is a pic and no DTCs
is there a harness anywhere that would connect to the factory RGB controller for ambient lighting/my color?
Ford uses the "common cathode" RGB LED lighting and so since I have a trackapps cluster now and changing colors on the cluster works like its supposed to, i know that to change the "my color" i would need some more stuff to add the factory ambient lighting... HOWEVER, RGB common cathode LEDS are all the same, you've got a positive (R)ed (G)reen (B)lue wire and a negative ground. So i've wired up my ambient lightning (factory harnesses and cup holder ring etc) to an aftermarket controller which works fine but its controlled by a little IR remote rather than by the cluster. If i could find somewhere in the dash that a harness WOULD connect to for the RGB i could run that into an RGB 12v LED amp then back out to all the LEDs.
***edit***
I meant to post this on the other post "retrofit trackapps cluster"
There is a module in the trunk on the passenger side where the leds connect to, I tested for voltage on my cluster swaped base an got nothing.
okay good to know! I meant to post this on the other trackapps thread! i didnt realize this one said 10-12 cars lol.
well, my aftermarket rgb controller works quite well i guess! Just wanted a more of a factory setup!
I have all the factory ford OEM lighting its just that its controlled by an aftermarket controller. Whats cool is that when the car is off, its that cyan blue/green color or (ice blue) or whatever ford calls it. then when i start the car it turns red and red is much easier on my eyes at night and matches the settings ive got on my cluster.

This is how it's wired to the BCM (the module in the trunk - passengers side)
