Vehicle CAN Support

BA

The Ford Falcon Elite Pro Plug-in has extensive BA 6 cylinder Falcon CAN support integrated into the software. Once the initial setup is done, the Haltech Pro Plug-in will interface with all modules within the vehicle. Some of the functions require setup and others are automatically taken care of in the background.

The functions which do not require setup are:

  • Dash Temperature Gauge Display

  • Dash Temperature Warning Indicator

    • This warning indicator illuminates when the Coolant Temperature Sensor (Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor) reads 120 degrees Celsius and above

  • Tachometer

  • Fuel Consumption Display

  • Range Indicator Display

  • Ford Travel Assistance Service

The functions which may require some ESP setup are:

  • Air Conditioner Control, with a CAN based request

  • Check Engine Light

  • Oil Pressure Warning Light

    • This warning light illuminates when oil pressure is below 42 kPa.

  • Vehicle Speed Sensors

  • Cruise Control

    • Enabled Light

    • Active Light

WARNING

The factory Ford audio module maintains complete functionality with the installation of the Haltech ECU. For some variants, if the OEM ECU is reinstalled after the Haltech installation the audio module may require reprogramming. Please contact your local Ford dealership to re-establish correct operation.


TUNING NOTE

While tuning the vehicle on a dynamometer, the vehicle speed main source must be set to the rear of the vehicle. Failure to do so will upset the instrument cluster of the vehicle and result in the speedometer not working, the odometer increasing at an exponential rate and traction control and ABS systems to be upset. Once the vehicle is off the dyno and on the road, the vehicle speed main source must be set to the front of the vehicle to avoid any false instrument cluster readings due to wheel slip.
