P0506 and P0357 code, need help
#17
I moved the coil from #7 to #3. I will see what happens. I did check all the wiring with my meter and visual. Did not find any shorts. I am starting to think that pcm is bad. If this is the problem will I need to do anything when I get a new one? Again thanks for all the help

I'm not as familiar with Ford PCMs as I am with GM. With GM you need to do a CASE learn and a security relearn. I would assume there is something similar with Ford. I did a little looking and looks like the VIN will need to be programed, as well as any security keys. This would all need to be done at a dealership. I don't see the PCM as being the problem.

the codes came back today after moving coils. It is the same codes. I checked the wiring yesterday by looking at it for breaks and bare spots. Did not find anything. What do you suggest to do next? Take it to a shop to have computer put on it

Did you replace the spark plug?
At this point we know it's not the coil, you moved it and problem didn't follow it. If the spark plug is new, that should rule it out, but still check it, I've seen cracked plugs. You need to look at what is unique to that cylinder. I would be looking at the wires between the ignition control module and the coil. If that all looks good, perhaps the ICM is acting up.
