This is the complete and definitive professional-grade diagnostic solution for the full range of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. This unique package provides total dealership-level coverage by combining both the legendary legacy system, Ford IDS, and the next-generation Ford FDRS system. With this toolkit, you are equipped to service everything from older models to the very latest vehicles with the most advanced electronics.
What is Ford IDS? (The Legacy Workhorse)
Ford Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) is the established and comprehensive tool that has been the backbone of Ford diagnostics for years. It is essential for full functionality on all vehicles up to approximately 2018.
• Version Included: 132.01
• Key Functions: In-depth module programming, PATS security and key programming, injector coding, power balance tests, and a powerful datalogger.
• Hardware Support: Designed to work with genuine and clone VCM & VCM II interfaces.
What is Ford FDRS? (The Modern Solution)
Ford Diagnostic & Repair System (FDRS) is the next-generation tool required for vehicles from approximately 2018 onwards, which feature modern network architectures.
• Version Included: 45.5.5
• Key Functions: Streamlined diagnostics with a modern interface, support for new gateway modules, HV (High-Voltage) battery health checks, and compatibility with the latest VCI diagnostic devices.
• Up-to-Date: This version includes recent enhancements for 10R80 transmissions, HV battery repairs, and more, as of July 2025.
Why You Need Both IDS and FDRS
A professional workshop cannot rely on just one system. This package gives you both, providing critical advantages:
• Total Vehicle Coverage: Seamlessly service a 2005 Ford Mustang with IDS and a 2025 Ford F-150 with FDRS, all from one installation package. You will never have to turn a customer away due to vehicle age.
• Full Functional Depth: Use the specific tool that was designed for the vehicle's architecture, ensuring all diagnostic and programming functions are available and work correctly.
• Full Multilingual Support: The software includes a massive selection of languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Korean, and many more.
System Compatibility
This software has been fully tested and is confirmed to be working perfectly on Windows 10 LTSC (2019).
