Powertrain Calibration Information
NOTE: Powertrain calibration information is limited to a maximum of five characters per line on the vehicle certification label. Because of this, calibration identification consisting of more than five characters will wrap to the second line on the VC label.
Powertrain calibration information is printed in the lower right corner of the vehicle certification label. Only the base calibration information is printed. Revision levels will not appear, however, they can be found in On Line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS). For the current model year, Ford Motor Company is using three different protocols which describe powertrain base calibration. These protocols are designed to provide worldwide standardization for vehicle calibration. If the electronic calibration strategy was introduced in 1998 and carried into the current model year, Protocol 1 will be used. Refer to Protocol 1 below. If the electronic calibration strategy was introduced in 1999 and is carried into the current model year, Protocol 2 will be used. Refer to Protocol 2 below. For new electronic calibration strategies introduced in 2000 or 2001 use Protocol 3. Refer to Protocol 3 below.
Protocol 1
Item Description
1 Model year (model year in which calibration strategy was first introduced)
2 Engine code
3 Engine revision level
Protocol 2
Item Description
1 Model year (model year in which calibration strategy was first introduced)
2 Engine code
3 Transmission code
4 Emission standard (designates the specific country emission standard)
5 Design level (design level assigned to the engine)
Protocol 3
Item Description
1 Model year (model year in which calibration strategy was first introduced)
2 Vehicle code
3 Transmission code
4 Unique calibration (designates different hardware to similar vehicles). Example: tires, drive ratios, etc.
5 Fleet code (describes fleet to which the vehicle belongs). Example: 6 – evaporative emissions
6 Certification region (lead region where multiple regions are included in one calibration). Example: A – U.S. federal
7 Revision level (will advance as revisions occur). Not printed on label
Protocol 3
The following offers a more detailed explanation of the coding strategy used in Protocol 3.
Model Year
0 — 2000
1 — 2001
Vehicle Line
F5 — F-150
Transmission
1 — Automatic transmission
2 — Manual transmission
Unique Calibration
The Emissions/CAFE/CO2 Compliance Department is responsible for assigning these calibration numbers. Unique calibration identification identifications are assigned to cover similar vehicles to differentiate tires, drive configurations, final drive ratios and other calibration-significant factors.
These two characters are chosen by the analyst to provide identifiable information unique to each calibration. For example, using the number 2 to denote a two-valve engine versus using the number 4 to denote a four-valve engine, offers an easily identifiable difference.
Fleet Code
1 — HDGE/Dyno
2 — Fast AMA, U.S.
3 — ADP, U.S.
4 — Not assigned
5 — Not assigned
6 — Evaporative emissions

M — Mexico
N — New Zealand
P — Australia
Q — South America (Brazil)
