Joined Feb 7, Joined Dec 12, The TSB is for getting around replacing the leadframe if Ford can get away with it. They reprogram the module to NOT downshift into first gear based on a potential faulty signal from a faulty speed sensor I believe. It just doesn't replace the faulty component that leads to the dangerous downshift. Joined Apr 30,

Always a luck of the draw though.

In April , Ford issued a recall for over , vehicles including the F with the 6R80 transmission. The recall was described very commonly and generally but you could understand from the notice that Ford is concerned with the speed sensor output the sensor in the lead frame, in your transmission. Also, Ford was going to make some software updates to avoid this problem in the future. The recall was motivated by quite a lot of issues with the transmission downshifting and then staying in that gear without shifting higher.

F150 lead frame

The lead frame of the Ford F is an often overlooked but integral part of its function. Tracing its roots back in the 6R80 Mechatronic assembly, the latest 6R80 lead frame houses several electrical components necessary for the proper functioning of its transmission system. From to , Ford revamped some of its models, starting with the F, to the 6R80 lead frame. The ensuing update didn't go smoothly as planned though as it still retained some of the problems present in the 6R80 Mechatronic while creating new issues in the succeeding 6R80 lead frame. These are exactly what we will explore in this article. If you own an F produced before , the 6R80 Mechatronic works as an electrically conductive interface between the transmission control module TCM and solenoids in the valve body. The TCM essentially acts like a conductor, sending electrical signals from the onboard computer to the appropriate solenoid when necessary, based on data collected from various sensors in different sections of the vehicle. In effect, this allows for precise control over all aspects of gear shifting, such as speed, rate, and timing.
