I do not see PCM data on @idahospud 's tracker, he and several 4/18 build weeks have tear tag values but nothing for PCM
Since I didn't know what it meant, I looked it up. "The powertrain control module, also known as PCM, is one of the most important elements in your vehicle. It oversees and analyzes data provided by other systems like the engine and transmission. This data helps it optimize numerous processes."

Maybe not present in ev?

That element might be for older generations vehicle systems, or all the data below [MOdule/address/Instruction] refers to either system device, see the snapshot of the ICS F150 build.

I'm only guessing, but seeing the TEAR TAG value might mean it's done with assembly and programing of the devices?

This is the oldest Lightning blend date 3/15/22, secured from the Auto Trader site.

PCM = Powertrain Control Module; BCE = Body Control Electronics

A great guide from the Bronco Forum (thanks to @Ksjrb03) on the production to delivery process is at:

https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...ed-emails-delivery-date-estimates-more.24987/

It is from last October but I have found it very instructive.
Thanks for sharing! According to that, if the modules have popped, the truck build has been completed. So now we are likely waiting on quality control and shipping!

OK, they really need to start shipping the trucks out. When Farley said it was going to start in "the next few days" I was envisioning 2-3 days...

My 4/21 blend had the sticker updated 4/27 and modules populated today. :)
Does the tracker have a date associated with “in production”❓❓

Good point, once the date is on top of "In Production" then its going down the line.

Is it? Not sarcastic. Thought they assembled in a day. Seen comments that tracker seems to not update in real time.I could have shed some light on subject if Ford had invited me to launch party. I think we all look for any detail, hoping our trucks are done and on a truck or train 🚂.

Yeah, from my ICE f150 last year, everything matched up. With the ICE we had people who could pull up what was actually going on with the truck at the assembly plant, but that stopped after too many people submitted request. If I were to take a guess, your trucks have already shipped. If you can find what transportation they are using then you can track it. I was able to track mine on Union Pacific all the way to the dealer.

But your modules did pop? If I recall this chat history? I'm a 4/22 blend date and noticed the date at the bottom of my window sticker updated today but no change on modules as of yet.

CORRECTION: My BCE modules just now popped. /thumbs-up

My modules popped awhile back, my sticker updated a couples of days after that.

seeing that the pro charger won’t deliver with the truck I now have to make a temp arrangement so I can use mobile until pro charger comes.
