You will need a Torx T-15 screwdriver to remove the four screws holding the IPC to the dash. The top two screws will be obvious when the top cover is removed. The bottom two are hidden behind a removable cover that clips to the dash and the steering column with a bit of vinyl in between - That one can be a bit tricky to get disconnected from the steering column. Use extreme care not to drop either of the bottom screws into the bowels of the dash, where they might never be found again! Don

Removing the cover can be tough. Carefully pry with a tool that won't bend or mark the plastic. A firm tug will unclip it. The IPC connector self extracts by rotating the bracket on the plug.

Thanks Don - appreciate the quick reply and info. Your confirmation gave me the confidence to continue exploring but with the battery charger connected going forward. I had a better session today and saved the BCM and IPC as-built configurations as a starting point before I make any changes. Also took a screen shot so I could save it in readable text format. I've got a question regarding what Forscan shows in the as-built config versus what Motorcraft was showing for the IPC Module. Below is screenshot of both. In comparison, Forscan doesn't show all the registers but does show a few extra ones in the upper range (720-24-01 and 720-25-01) that didn't show up on the Motorcraft site. Wonder why? Also, what are the Restore and Write boxes to the right of several of the registers? I'm assuming those are the only ones that Forscan will allow you to change. Thanks!
