Disconnect the battery for about 1hr.
Upon reconnecting it, there is a procedure Ford list to reset the ECU (and its also on aufalcon.com), but personally I dont use it, never have. I just drive the car normally. Be prepared for it to run like crap for the first few kms as its sorts itself out again, but after that it should be fine.
