I don't think PCM and BCE modules mean much. I've had them for over a week; i.e., since I got the window sticker. I'm in batch 6133.

It is likely the batch numbers are being produced with some overlap - so it can look like they have completed the earlier numbers before they have. I'm 49 /305 in 6074, maybe I'll see progress tomorrow. Anyone know if Mexico works 2 or 3 shifts?

PCM & BCE Modules showing for me. Batch 6074.

What is your number in the batch? I'm in the same batch, but I don't see modules yet.

I see the same thing

I think if you are seeing this then you don't have any modules yet.

I may be wrong though.

Oops?

Congrats! I'm also Batch 6074 - 84/305. Maybe my modules will show up tomorrow. Does the batch correspond to the trim? I'm getting a CR1 AWD

None for me yet. I’m in 6074, 106/305. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!

I'm getting Premium AWD ER - 49/305 in 6074.

Interesting, I don't understand why Ford breaks them into batches if they build different trim levels within the same batch. I'm sure there's a reason...just never researched it.

Could be ER or AWD or even color.

Just checked and modules confirmed! (at least BCE modules, no PCE yet, not sure what the difference is)
Batch 6051 (41/307)

Someone on here supposedly had some insight into the production line and said that installation of the panoramic glass roof takes some additional manpower. It was something like an additional two steps of a worker's time, so instead of delaying everything, they would slot two vehicles without glass roofs in between one that did have the glass roof.

I don't know if that's true; given that it seems there are a lot of premium-level trims in this group, maybe it's no longer true, or... who knows. Either way, it sounds somewhat plausible.

I found this on a different Ford forum for trucks:

When the BCE codes show up it means your truck was built. Mines in transit now and no PCM codes ever showed up, but the BCE codes showing up corresponded with my build date.

Looks like PCM codes might not display.
