Using FORScan with a 2019+ Ranger | QUICK TUTORIAL
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Here's a quick overview of how to get FORScan, what it is, and how to use it on your 2019+ North America spec Ford Ranger! I'm no pro, in fact, I've only been using it for 3 days, but in those three days, I've enabled some of the coolest features Ford has tried to hide from us. Please watch other videos and do your research before messing with your vehicle. You can easily brick your truck if you're not careful, so I encourage backing up your work and doing your due diligence.

I know I blew through this at 100MPH, but I hope it's of some help. Don't be afraid to ask me questions. I may not know the answers, but I can help find them!
Very helpful. I was able to
Make some of the changes I wanted with your help!
I updated my synchronization 3 via wifi of my Ford Ranger 2021, but at the time the update ended, the screen was big like that of your car, but the image it gives now is like the STX is small and I can only occupy the radio what can I do before the failure?
My 2021 only had Off Road Guage, I enabled it and all is working.
Please guide me to activate the automatic retreat and exit feature on Everest - Ranger 2019
Could I get a walk through on speedometer calibration? I’m all new to this
I know it’s an old video. When I try and register it is asking for a Confirmation Of Registration. Won’t let me by pass
Enjoyed the video. Thank you for making it. I ordered the same scanner you did for the same reasons you did. Can’t wait to play with it. You’re the first video I watched that didn’t use the advanced mode to program. I think I will take your advice and try that first. Again, thanks for your video. One quick question. Did the OBDLink EX ask about switch position when you hooked it up? Other videos I’ve watched with other scanners ask about switch position. The EX is automatic so I’m wondering if it ask about the switch position. Thanks.
I purhcased the most recent forscan and paid 10 dollars for a 1 yr license. i have a 2021 ford ranger lariat 4wd. I puchased the new knob with the terrain mgt button in the center and easily installed. now i am trying to enable the "selectable drive mode" and it is not there. i think they changed the name?? very confused. I would love some help. thank you.
Very detailed good video
Nice tutorial... also windows on MacBook Pro, interesting... 🤔😆
@@addisonlessing8709 niceeee
Hi, how do you adjust the accessoires switch of time? Now my fridge stops 15 minutes after switching of the ignition.
Hi! I manage to enable the 4wd system but i noticed that the steering angle is the only thing working there. Pitch and roll isn’t moving. Any tips on how to make it work properly?
I really like that setup I'll be doing that with mine
Thanks for the info very much useful
Hey men thank you for video this very good.
But i have small problem.
I have like same elm327 odb2 but not cable have bluetooth. do you know how i can connect to bluetooth? Downloaded everything FORScan etc. just i need how i can connect to bluetooth.
Do you have a spreadsheet for the 2019 Ranger with all mods?
@Addison Lessing How did you get Windows on your MBP? Did you dual boot, or use a virtual machine? I'm running a virtual machine (Windows 10) on my MBP, but it would not let me write to my Ford Performance Power Pack Tuner from a virtual machine... wondered if FORScan permits you to connect to your vehicle thru a virtual machine.
@@addisonlessing8709 Ah, good man! The only reason I would get a PC is so I can mess with my Ranger haha... I may follow suit, since it seems to work for you.
I see you're on a Mac Book. How are you running Windows? Did you partition the hard drive?
@@addisonlessing8709 Thanks!
Random question: Did your Ranger come with the matte trim pieces (like the embossed one on the dash in front of the passenger), or did you alter them? Mine are magnetic gray too, but GLOSS (fingerprint magnet) and I would give my left arm for matte ones!
i have th3e XLT too and its the same.
If you have a lariat then its probably chrome
Is it really necessary to flash back to stock before using forscan ??
@@addisonlessing8709 for sure dude thanks
I put the ford performance on in demo mode (not paid for forscan) it never worked - then I paid for forscan and now I can get every other splash screen except for the ford performance one. If I load it just the default one loads. Seems the demo must alter or damage it somehow.
@@addisonlessing8709 I've tried a few more times and its still not working - apparently the latest update for the sync does not support that particular screen anymore. all the rest that I've tried work no problem. cheers for your reply before and a great video.
well damn i was just looking at one of those adapters to auto enable bambi mode. Looks like im just getting a cable and life time FORscan for the same price instead.
Thats interesting. why will it not let you lower the miles? i know a guy who said he sent his cluster to a mile correction company and they changed it to a lower mile and his reason was he bought a used engine that had lower miles on it and he wanted it to match. I only know what he told me though.
It is illegal to change a vehicles odometer to show less miles than the chassis has on it . How many miles a new engine or transmission has is not the actual miles on the vehicle . You would not want to purchase a vehicle that shows 10k when the whole vehicle could have 100k right ?
So the Extended Licensing is required to do this? Won't work using Standard Licensing?
Which part of nc?
@@addisonlessing8709 sweet im in onslow
Winston-Salem here..
I've been trying to get the Trail Control to work but can't. I've followed all the information on how to turn it on but no luck. I even put in the OEM button and enabled the F150 Forscan settings with no luck. 2019 Ranger 4x4 non-FX4 have you seen anything on this?
@@addisonlessing8709 Yes it is 4x4 just not the FX4, just straight 4x4.
Wow looks super complicated. Guess I will get on with my life instead. 😂
Wow looks super unnecessary, guess I’ll do the same
