1. Most importantly, REMOVE THE FICM CONTROL RELAY. We will not be responsible for an injector failure due to not removing the FICM Control Relay during a reflash!
Please check your vehicle’s instruction manual for the proper location of the FICM
Control Relay. This is located under the hood in the Relay Panel (located by the driver’s
side hood hinge).
On 2003-2004 trucks, the relay box is small and contains 2 relays. The FICM Control
Relay is the one closest to the engine.
On 2005+ trucks, the relay box is large and contains several relays and fuses. The
FICM Control Relay is the one that is closest to the engine and radiator (forward-right
position). The relay is nearly always GRAY in color.
After removal, you can verify that the correct relay has been removed by listening for
the injector buzz when turning the key to the ON position. You SHOULD NOT hear the
injectors buzz! When turning the key ON. Failure to remove the FICM relay will often
result in the failure of the Number 1 injector.
