Ford F-Series 7.3L Power Stroke Edge Juice Module PDF Installation Instructions Manual

The Ford 7.3L Juice Module The picture below shows the Ford 7.3L Juice Module for the Ford 7.3L engine with all available options – Both the Attitude™ display monitor and the three position switch. It is essential that the cables that are supplied with this module get connected as shown on the following pages.

Harness Connector Your Juice module may be equipped with a harness that can be disconnected at the Juice module itself (See figure 1A). It is important to make sure that your juice module is always connected to the harness when the wiring harness is connected to the truck, otherwise the truck may not run properly, or may trip engine “codes.”

Engine Codes As with many aftermarket electronic performance modifications available for the Ford 7.3L Power Stroke® Diesel engine the Ford 7.3L Edge Products Juice module for the Ford 7.3 Power Stroke® Diesel engine will likely set engine “codes.”

The engine codes are generally set during heavy acceleration. Although the codes will remain “set” in the PCM, the dash board indicator light should turn off within 15 minutes. Most codes that are set under hard acceleration are called “soft codes”. These soft codes are retained in the PCM and can be erased by unhooking the battery for 30 minutes, or by using the Edge Products Evolution to clear the codes. Codes that may be set: P1211 – Injector control pressure is different than expected P1209 – Peak injection pressure fault.

The Ford 7.3L Juice Module modifies sensor readings that are monitored by the ECM. These sensor inputs may or may not be what the ECM is
expecting at any point in time. Because of the difference in expected readings the ECM may set the engine codes. This is not expected to harm the Ford 7.3L engine and should not cause damage to the engine.

Stacking This product is designed to be “stacked” with other products. Edge Products has designed this product to take advantage of other performance products and to reduce the fuel to the engine if the Exhaust Gas Temperature gets too high. This feature has been optimized to work best with the Evolution programmer from Edge Products.

Automatic Transmission and shifting During the development of the Ford 7.3L Juice Module our development team discovered that the stock shifting pattern for the transmission used with the Ford Diesel Powerstroke® engine maintained “stock” shifting even while the engine gave additional horsepower or torque especially when the Juice Module was set to Level 5. Because the transmission shifting may not have been designed to shift with the additional horsepower provided by the Juice Module, Edge Products recommends that the Edge Products Evolution
module be purchased to adjust transmission shifting for better shifting under the additional horsepower. Call you Edge Products (1-888-360-EDGE) or your Edge Products dealer to find out how the Evolution can add positive shifting to your Ford 7.3 Powerstroke®

Low boost fueling Low boost fueling refers to the amount of fuel added to the combustion process while the turbo boost is low. Often adding additional fuel when the boost is low produces dark sooty smoke from the tail pipe, but many times doesn’t produce a great amount of additional horsepower gain. Unless using your truck in a racing condition, it’s recommend that the low boost fuel setting be placed where it produces the least amount of dark smoke. This adjustment can be made from a menu selection on the Attitude display.

Orientation: This is a top view of the vehicle (looking down from above the vehicle). References in the text to “looking down”, means looking toward the ground. Looking up, means looking towards the sky from below the vehicle. Front, rear, left and right are as noted below.
