Official summary
Some 2023 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 6.7L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) U3012 present in the powertrain control module (PCM). This may be due to the software in the body control module (BCM) and does not affect vehicle operation. To correct the condition, reprogram the BCM using the latest software level of the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS) scan tool. For claiming, use causal part 15604 and applicable labor operations in Section 10 of the Service Labor Time Standards (SLTS) Manual.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
