How to clear codes and reset TPS adaptations in IDS 118.5?
I got my grabby hands on a genuine Ford VCM and IDS 118.5 Patch 11 (the latest available for that version IIRC). I can read the codes just fine. This includes TCM, ABS and others. For some reason I don't see an "erase" button on the right side of the screen like I do with Ford/Mazda IDS. How do I erase the codes?
Also, How to I reset the adaptations for TPS? Which menu is this buried in? Any pointers to IDS Jag manuals or training materials would be very much appreciated.

This is from memory so I might miss something.
Erasing codes is a 2 step process. First click on the code or module you want to erase. A button appears on the right of the screen - looks like an eraser on the end of a pencil. Click that. That adds it to the list of things to be erased. Select all of the codes or modules you want.
When you have selected something to erase another button should appear but I can't remember what it looks like. This lets you actually clear the codes selected.
For TPS, click on the Tab at the top of screen with the Car/Spanner Icon. Select “Setup and Configuration”, then expand “Engine and Transmission”.

I bought a genuine ford VCM (not a clone). So far it has been working great with IDS 118.5. The only issue is, frankly speaking, my lack of experience with IDS.
