Huge thanks!! Invaluable tutorial alongside your other vids on FORScan!! I just picked up a 2018 Lariat 3.5 and it is night and day after a few changes. The double-honk delete is worth the $50 OBD cable entry fee alone. Fake engine noise delete was also a complete gamechanger especially if your an audiohead like myself -the B&O sound system is drastically better without it. Cabin noise is also considerably lower on the hwy. Deleting the TCM adaptive learning tables and disabling adaptive learning all together is like a new truck when it comes to the 10 speed shifting. I've yet to jump into the As-Builts, and have been unable to figure out auto-folding mirrors on lock.. I've tried Lincoln Mode, and Mirror Auto Fold with no luck.
Thanks so much for sharing this video! Just ordered the adapter and got a list on my mind that I'd like to do to my truck: ° disabled double honk ° autofold mirrors on ignition shut off ° add seat heat / cool option to touch screen ° global window control via keyfob
Just bought my F-150 Lariat and brought it home to show the Wife. The door closed by itself with a gust of wind and I had the truck running. Scared the hell out of me and the Wife. Saw this video and instantly bought the adapter. Thanks man! I knew there had to be a way to adjust the parameters since I did this with my BMW as well.
I appreciate your attempt at explaining using ForScan; any information is more than I had before......BUT you say in your title, “New easy way with no spreadsheet”. Yes you showed it can be done without a spreadsheet BUT you were aimlessly clicking on stuff with no direction as to where to go to get to a certain setting (and you know a lot about the settings). A new user that has absolutely no idea of what module to go to would be just as lost as you seem to be. Honestly, I think your “phone quit recording” because your poking around didn’t work, so you had to find one that did. All I’m saying is a spreadsheet that drills down to where stuff is and gives a description of what it does is helpful. Thanks again.
So my CAMERA really did stop recording. Nothing was a play on anyone and obviously you have not done your homework nor watched the entire video because you would have caught the part where I say if you are new to this check out my other videos. Not to be rude, but I have several videos on this subject that explain how to download, setup, activate, and use Forscan. Check them out and your questions will be answered
This is amazing. I had no idea this was accessible until i started trying to find a way to change out my own back up motion sensor, which has to be reprogrammed. I am hoping this will allow me to do that. I kind of jumped in the middle here, and would like to start with first video and watch them all. I am waiting for my Motion Detection Sensor to come in from China. Ford was on back order anyway and the price difference was literally over a 1000 dollars less. So THANKS. I've been a Ford Fan since the days of Vacuum powered windshield wipers....my how things have changed... You made the leap much easier.
Thank u so much. Just started a couple things . Programmed my tire increase now I feel so much better with gas mileage. Programmed lights and raptor hack. I am trying to see if I can put a custom splash setting . Marine corps ..
It sure would be a lot easier and easier if this was like the J Scan app for Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep vehicles. All you need is an obd2 wireless dongle and the app. It's really that easy
My truck is a f250 just ordered the OBD2 Dungle for forscan pretty sure things will be the similar. So I subscribed to learn more others should do the same
I bought some ANZOS headlights Housing for my 2019 XLT halogen. It has the led STRIP but I have to put it in parking lights for it to turn on MANUALLY. Is there away on forscan where they turn on by them selfs?
Recommended connector purchased, software downloaded, just need to get the license. Great videos. Super helpful. Looking forward to a future without dings and setting my tire size correctly.
Very helpful, thank you. Is there a setting to let you adjust the oil mileage minder? I have the Ecoboost and I would like to set 100% to be at 5000 miles.
So this is great. I changed my radio splash screen to Lincoln a long time ago with this software and the spread sheet. Well I did not back up my default programing and sync 3 would not update as it did not see it as a F150 But now I can change it back and try to update it agian.
But... I like spreadsheets. My copy of forscan resolutely refuses to even look for my bluetooth, even though the laptop was paired with it. I'd rather use the cable anyway.
Just moved from a 2013 Lariat to a 2016 Lariat and am super grateful for your videos! Adapter is on order and software is standing by at the ready. I have to ask - which raptor style grille did you go with and from what seller? Thanks :)
2020 xl sxt. I cannot get rid of the stupid bounce back window feature on the passenger side. I’m thinking this is the ticket! Also I hear the adaptive learning for the transmission shifts is often the reason for issues I believe you can default if you buy used and disable.
Ford dealer just charged me $120 to turn on the trailer brake controller I installed. I put taller tires on so my speedometer is off. They told me they couldn't calibrate it with new tire size but they obviously don't know what they are doing.
This may be a long shot but would you have any knowledge if the turn lamp drl and hyper flash disable option would work on a 2010 escape? I’ve done a full led conversion on it and have been thinking about doing this for a while. You’re probably thinking “why the hell does this guy have a 2010 escape???” Honestly it’s because I’ve been turning mine into an off-roader, and because I fell in love with them after my grandmother bought hers new in 2010, so they hold a special place in my heart to be honest. Great cars that are criminally underrated. Just hit 60K miles in mine today and WILL make sure it’ll run 5 times that.
Excellent video, man. Thank you for sharing this. Question for you, I have not hook this up yet to my truck but I am wondering if there is a setting which will disable the honk of your horn when you click the remote twice? Reason I ask this is for my auto start
Great video, I have a 2019 F250 Platinum. I added LED lights strips to the bed. I tied them into the existing bed lights but when i turn them on, they quit working. I have to start the truck for them to reset and turn back on only to go out again. From my research, it's drawing to much. My question is can i change this in Forscan so that i can use these LED lights in the bed with the existing bed lights? Thanks
Thanks for the video, I tried on my 2016 limited F150 and change it but isn’t work. I did the DRL, down up windows, Lincoln style folding mirrors and not working. Also I have a problem with the Radio, all components like GPS, climate, backup cam. 360 and all other apps work but the radio runner does not work or turn on.
I got a 2023 F150 power boost with blackout has three quarters of an amazing tow package but even when my trailer is not connected it keeps saying height restriction ahead Every time I go under an overpass Is there a way to shut that off in forscan also is there a way to change the power output to the electric drive so that it will go farther or faster versus a stock setting for when the motors should turn back on for drive power or charging
My 2023 rear bed camera was deleted by ford due to parts being unavailable when the truck was built. I want to add the camera back by replacing the third brake light lens that has the camera. I have the 360 camera option on my truck minus the bed camera. Can you show me how to enable the bed camera using Forscan? Thanks, Dennis
I Just bought a 2020 Lariat. I would love to have a digital readout (like you have) for the oil and coolant temps. Someone come do this to my truck LOL. I love in WI
Can that annoying chime be disabled in my 2019 f250 that sounds off when i exit without removing the keys? By the way, great video! I learned a bunch from it and thank you.
Doesn't work for 2022 F150 XL. Its only off or on for DLR. High beam with fogs does work. Friendly FYI. Note, I did try putting numbers in and also enable/disable. Neither worked.
I tried to activate turns with parking lamps on my 2017 platinum and it comes up with an error message saying incompatible combination. Next I will try parking lamps and fogs or driving lights and see if that will take. If it does I will switch out the driving light bulbs with amber LEDs. Currently stuck on parking lamps and low beams.
Hey so I do a lot of coyote hunting . Was wondering if there is a way to program all lights on the vehicle to my headlights switch? Too many lights on pulling into hunting spots, trying to have it blacked out basically
We have a 21 expedition. For canceling DRL, I can just turn it off on the #0? I see that there is a list of different ways. We have halogen lights and just want it off.
Hey brother, great video. I am a new owner of Ford Raptor 2018 and I have replaced the front radar with a used one. However, it is not functioning as I believe it must be programmed due to VIN differences. Any thoughts of the steps from the ForScan this can be programmed? Thanks
I just downloaded and paid for Forscan a week ago. It only has the as built options. So it's very confusing trying to figure anything out. Everything is just numbers and nothing shows what anything is. 2018 F150, 2018 Explorer, 2007 Mustang. All 3 only have as built data.
I tried to use the non as built to program Global windows on my F150 2016 Platinum with no success, setting to remote and both. I programed with as built with success?
Hey man, thanks so much for your videos. Even though spreadsheets have been almost all but not needed, this is still a fairly complicated program to navigate. I have a 15' Platinum and have made several successful changes- I like the DRL setup and have it changed as well, but the LED outer rings aren't as bright as the turn signal light like your are. I've tried to find the settings here and some have said when they turn up the brightness (somehow) they lose their rear parking lights in the process. I was just wondering about this, and if you could tell me where I find the settings to turn these up brighter in the DRL mode? Thanks again for your videos, I couldn't have done it without you!
Hey! Everytime i press write to change something an error came saying Writing blocks failied - incompatible configuration, i did exactly what you did :(
I enabled Bambi mode but may have changed something else as my DRL stay on after the truck is off and locked, they use to stay on like 20 sec but now they won’t turn off by themselves.
Thanks for the videos. I have a 06 Ford Escape XLS. I'm using the ELM327 adapter. I'm trying to turn off the tire pressure light on the dashboard. It's very annoying. I can't seem to find the file. I found it on my 2017 Escape. Any ideas where it could be?
The Akon headlights are on my F250 not this truck. The highbeam auto is controlled by the camera and module so changing the headlights should have nothing to do with it
I realize this is an older video but i had a question regarding the DRL changes and even headlamps. I changed my DRL to turn lamp aswell and enjoyed it, but I noticed when I hit the unlock button on my key fob the low beams cut on with the park lamps, whereas it used to just cut on my park lamp alone. Same goes with my headlamp switch, from auto to park lamp option, to the middle option…the low beam is always on. The only time my low beam does not come on is if my DRLs are on or the headlight switch is all the way off. Any ideas, thoughts, solutions?
I ran out of the license but just got an extended one. I’m headed to see if I can figure out what’s going on now. BCM is what I need to focus on with the headlights correct?
Seems like you are good at this. I just did a 2" to 8" cluster and I was able to write miles but not the engine hours or idle time. Do you know how i can change those values?
I have a Canadian f150 lariat 2017 and don't see an option to disable the headlights when I want only parking lights, like driving up to a gate and want my headlights off and parking lights to remain on. What is the code for that or where is it on the modules?
I have an xlt ford f250 and I exchanged the tailgate from a manual tailgate to a push button one All the wire are there and I also added the push button on the dash all the wire are there also but I can’t get the buttons to work
Is there glossary for this new part of Forscan that actually describes what each change will do? Like Dark car mode for example. I know what that one does because you just told us. But there are a lot on here I have no idea what they are. Thanks for the videos you were the reason I got Forscan and started tinkering with it.
2019 F150 XLT Sport. I have the Extended License for Forescan. Can connect w/ no issues, and even into the BdyCM Configuration. I go directly into "DRL Configuration". No matter which option I select, and try to write, I get "Writing Blocks Failed - Incompatible Configuration" every.......single........time. No matter what I do. Stumped by this :( :(
Plugged in forscan yesterday when it was going down the checklist everything was good until the very bottom DTC error not sure how to clear any help would be grateful thank you
Question I have a 2012 mustang and dropped an 2013 Recaro in it bothe the new and old didn't have power seats and the airbag light came on and couldn't figure out the issues can't slap the old seats on because they're gone is there a way I can edit that on the for scn?
I change the steering wheel on my 2017 F350 XL To a XLT steering wheel with buttons how can I get them buttons to work with my aftermarket stereo. I’m pretty sure I have to go into the BCM but I don’t have the values numbers for XLT
I’m stuck! I’ve downloaded and got the license. When I get to the part where you click “load license” it takes me to a bunch of folders and I don’t know where to go from there. I’m so computer illiterate!
You don’t have to use a lap top to change the logo on the radio at all. There are buttons you can press and do all sorts of hacks in the f150. Ppl you don’t have to go through all the trouble he is showing. On steering wheel where volume is and arrows press the one point right and the same one on your unit at the same time and you’ll have the options. It will say testing.. end test when it comes up then press test setting then press theme.
This works for some people, but not all. Some have reported that the change does not stay. The purpose of this is to introduce what the software can do, not just change a logo
have you ever tried any of the more complex mods? example adaptive headlights. They normally require changes in several modules however in the BCM there is a one click button to enable them. Does that change the other modules as well?
I love forscan and I'm willing to support them by purchasing the $ 12-a-year extended license.
ikr, why be a tight @$$ over $12 a year when you get use out of it.
Huge thanks!! Invaluable tutorial alongside your other vids on FORScan!! I just picked up a 2018 Lariat 3.5 and it is night and day after a few changes. The double-honk delete is worth the $50 OBD cable entry fee alone.

I've yet to jump into the As-Builts, and have been unable to figure out auto-folding mirrors on lock.. I've tried Lincoln Mode, and Mirror Auto Fold with no luck.
I paid for the lifetime extension as I felt that these guys are worth it. Sure is going to save me from having a dealer do it for me.
Lifetime is no longer offered sadly.
Thanks for the video.
I went ahead and purchased the 3yr license to support the developers.
Love how u actually show the changing in forscan. Thanks!! So nice to not have to use a spreadsheet anymore. Not worried about bricking my truck now.
Thanks so much for sharing this video! Just ordered the adapter and got a list on my mind that I'd like to do to my truck:
° disabled double honk
° autofold mirrors on ignition shut off
° add seat heat / cool option to touch screen
° global window control via keyfob
how did it go did you get it all done?
Just bought my F-150 Lariat and brought it home to show the Wife. The door closed by itself with a gust of wind and I had the truck running. Scared the hell out of me and the Wife. Saw this video and instantly bought the adapter. Thanks man! I knew there had to be a way to adjust the parameters since I did this with my BMW as well.
I think the BMW software is a little less user friendly than this. I have not tried this on my Z3
These are the exact changes I will be making (front turn and parking lights as DRL). Thanks man!
I appreciate your attempt at explaining using ForScan; any information is more than I had before......BUT you say in your title, “New easy way with no spreadsheet”. Yes you showed it can be done without a spreadsheet BUT you were aimlessly clicking on stuff with no direction as to where to go to get to a certain setting (and you know a lot about the settings).

Super helpful vid. I was hours into the spreadsheet when a buddy linked me to this vid. Now going through your other vids.
Glad I could help!
Thank you for making these videos. I have the same year and trim as yours. You've given me so many ideas.
This is amazing. I had no idea this was accessible until i started trying to find a way to change out my own back up motion sensor, which has to be reprogrammed. I am hoping this will allow me to do that. I kind of jumped in the middle here, and would like to start with first video and watch them all. I am waiting for my Motion Detection Sensor to come in from China. Ford was on back order anyway and the price difference was literally over a 1000 dollars less. So THANKS. I've been a Ford Fan since the days of Vacuum powered windshield wipers....my how things have changed... You made the leap much easier.
motion detection sensor?
I was watching the video wondering if I could turn of XM and just as I thought about it, you answered my question
Some of the “easy” way ones don’t work properly or at all.
Thanks man, I just bought an F150 and I can’t wait to do some of these.
This is exactly what I have been searching for! Thank you for the great video!
Thanks for the video! i couldn't find much online about the new version of forscan
Thank u so much. Just started a couple things . Programmed my tire increase now I feel so much better with gas mileage. Programmed lights and raptor hack. I am trying to see if I can put a custom splash setting . Marine corps ..
Were you able to do the custom splash? Semper Gumby
Great video. Worth it alone to get rid of the double honk while vehicle is running! I have the same truck as well and love it.
Great job man. Leaps and bounds from your first forscan video 🤘 The screen recording is so nice to watch. Cheers and happy new year! 🤘
It sure would be a lot easier and easier if this was like the J Scan app for Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep vehicles. All you need is an obd2 wireless dongle and the app. It's really that easy
Thank you for helping me with my first rodeo with forscan
You have to wait for the odometer led's to go off before you turn the ignition switch back on to reflect the change for the themes
I just bought the one without the switch, it does work good. I still wish it was like the old days though.
The beeping noise he turns off at 12:45 from key in ignition when door open, can you disable that? 🙏
My truck is a f250 just ordered the OBD2 Dungle for forscan pretty sure things will be the similar. So I subscribed to learn more others should do the same
Love it! I have 2015 F-150 definitely going to look into this. Thanks for the video.
set “Allow DRL options” to all options in BdyCM if you want it switch daylight running lights option
I bought some ANZOS headlights Housing for my 2019 XLT halogen. It has the led STRIP but I have to put it in parking lights for it to turn on MANUALLY. Is there away on forscan where they turn on by them selfs?
Recommended connector purchased, software downloaded, just need to get the license.
Great videos. Super helpful.
Looking forward to a future without dings and setting my tire size correctly.
Very helpful, thank you.
Is there a setting to let you adjust the oil mileage minder? I have the Ecoboost and I would like to set 100% to be at 5000 miles.
So this is great. I changed my radio splash screen to Lincoln a long time ago with this software and the spread sheet.
Well I did not back up my default programing and sync 3 would not update as it did not see it as a F150 But now I can change it back and try to update it agian.
But... I like spreadsheets. My copy of forscan resolutely refuses to even look for my bluetooth, even though the laptop was paired with it. I'd rather use the cable anyway.
Thanks so much for making this video!
Just moved from a 2013 Lariat to a 2016 Lariat and am super grateful for your videos! Adapter is on order and software is standing by at the ready. I have to ask - which raptor style grille did you go with and from what seller? Thanks :)
2020 xl sxt. I cannot get rid of the stupid bounce back window feature on the passenger side. I’m thinking this is the ticket! Also I hear the adaptive learning for the transmission shifts is often the reason for issues I believe you can default if you buy used and disable.
Ford dealer just charged me $120 to turn on the trailer brake controller I installed.
I put taller tires on so my speedometer is off. They told me they couldn't calibrate it with new tire size but they obviously don't know what they are doing.
You can change it. I did mine myself
Got Forscan in February and I wish I knew this. I’ve input codes manually on three trucks now…
There are auto switching dongles now that make things easy and no drop outs.
This may be a long shot but would you have any knowledge if the turn lamp drl and hyper flash disable option would work on a 2010 escape? I’ve done a full led conversion on it and have been thinking about doing this for a while. You’re probably thinking “why the hell does this guy have a 2010 escape???” Honestly it’s because I’ve been turning mine into an off-roader, and because I fell in love with them after my grandmother bought hers new in 2010, so they hold a special place in my heart to be honest. Great cars that are criminally underrated. Just hit 60K miles in mine today and WILL make sure it’ll run 5 times that.
Wow what a great video
Appreciate !!
Looking to do my 2018 f150 - just to chicken shit to try - but I do love your videos -
wish I had the guts - with my luck I would destroy my truck
Excellent video, man. Thank you for sharing this. Question for you, I have not hook this up yet to my truck but I am wondering if there is a setting which will disable the honk of your horn when you click the remote twice? Reason I ask this is for my auto start
When switching to MS it does not load further modules. I bought the same one you have off Amazon and licensed it. Why is this happening?
Great video, I have a 2019 F250 Platinum. I added LED lights strips to the bed. I tied them into the existing bed lights but when i turn them on, they quit working. I have to start the truck for them to reset and turn back on only to go out again. From my research, it's drawing to much. My question is can i change this in Forscan so that i can use these LED lights in the bed with the existing bed lights? Thanks
Changing a battery in my 2018 F-150 requires a reset or some input to the battery control system. Can this be done through FORSCAN?
Thanks for the video, I tried on my 2016 limited F150 and change it but isn’t work. I did the DRL, down up windows, Lincoln style folding mirrors and not working. Also I have a problem with the Radio, all components like GPS, climate, backup cam. 360 and all other apps work but the radio runner does not work or turn on.
I have 2020 f150 lifted 3 1/2 added 35s will FORScan let me update my tires and rims to speedometer.
I got a 2023 F150 power boost with blackout has three quarters of an amazing tow package but even when my trailer is not connected it keeps saying height restriction ahead Every time I go under an overpass Is there a way to shut that off in forscan also is there a way to change the power output to the electric drive so that it will go farther or faster versus a stock setting for when the motors should turn back on for drive power or charging
FORScan doesn't pick up the DDM and PDM for the auto fold mirrors.
My 2023 rear bed camera was deleted by ford due to parts being unavailable when the truck was built. I want to add the camera back by replacing the third brake light lens that has the camera. I have the 360 camera option on my truck minus the bed camera. Can you show me how to enable the bed camera using Forscan? Thanks, Dennis
I Just bought a 2020 Lariat. I would love to have a digital readout (like you have) for the oil and coolant temps. Someone come do this to my truck LOL. I love in WI

Looking for the same solution
Need DRL turned on , used Forscan , now the interior lights flash on and off !! Why?
We have a 21 expedition. For canceling DRL, I can just turn it off on the #0? I see that there is a list of different ways. We have halogen lights and just want it off.
Hey brother, great video. I am a new owner of Ford Raptor 2018 and I have replaced the front radar with a used one. However, it is not functioning as I believe it must be programmed due to VIN differences. Any thoughts of the steps from the ForScan this can be programmed?

I want to see a video of top changes everyones done. never knew about this, ordering an adapter asap. Has anyone had issues using forscan with Mac?
I tried to use the non as built to program Global windows on my F150 2016 Platinum with no success, setting to remote and both. I programed with as built with success?
How do I change my temperature gauges so it will show the actual temperature for transmission coolant etc along with the regulator guage
just an fyi, if the battery voltage drops to low while tuning/writing, it will bomb the computer
Hey man, thanks so much for your videos. Even though spreadsheets have been almost all but not needed, this is still a fairly complicated program to navigate.

Thanks for the videos.
I have a 06 Ford Escape XLS. I'm using the ELM327 adapter. I'm trying to turn off the tire pressure light on the dashboard. It's very annoying. I can't seem to find the file.
I found it on my 2017 Escape. Any ideas where it could be?
I am unable to see BdyCM to adjust for my aftermarket tires. Any idea how to fix this?
Your new Akon head assembly does it still go into highbeam and low beam automatically with approaching vehicles
The Akon headlights are on my F250 not this truck. The highbeam auto is controlled by the camera and module so changing the headlights should have nothing to do with it
I realize this is an older video but i had a question regarding the DRL changes and even headlamps.

I’m sorry I forgot to add, my truck is a 2016 Ford F-150 limited with the factory LEDs
That is strange. I have never heard of that happening before. Maybe reset the values and try again
That’s what I was thinking I I might have to do. Do you suggest restarting from scratch or just reset the BCM values only?
Just bcm
I ran out of the license but just got an extended one. I’m headed to see if I can figure out what’s going on now. BCM is what I need to focus on with the headlights correct?
Great video man
Seems like you are good at this. I just did a 2" to 8" cluster and I was able to write miles but not the engine hours or idle time. Do you know how i can change those values?
I have a Canadian f150 lariat 2017 and don't see an option to disable the headlights when I want only parking lights, like driving up to a gate and want my headlights off and parking lights to remain on. What is the code for that or where is it on the modules?
great info and video
Can you turn off the auto stop start feature with this forscan?
Yes
If I want turn signal bulbs on only for drl’s, do I literally just select “turn signals” in the drl configuration tab? Thanks!
Thank you. I will order a cable soon; but do you know if I can re-program the ACM module with a SSM update to fix the "No Audio" issue?
I have an xlt ford f250 and I exchanged the tailgate from a manual tailgate to a push button one
All the wire are there and I also added the push button on the dash all the wire are there also but I can’t get the buttons to work
I think you need to go into the body control module and change it from manual to auto
Is there glossary for this new part of Forscan that actually describes what each change will do? Like Dark car mode for example. I know what that one does because you just told us. But there are a lot on here I have no idea what they are. Thanks for the videos you were the reason I got Forscan and started tinkering with it.
You just need to research them on the forum
Thanks for the details. Great video 👍🏼
2019 F150 XLT Sport. I have the Extended License for Forescan. Can connect w/ no issues, and even into the BdyCM Configuration. I go directly into "DRL Configuration". No matter which option I select, and try to write, I get "Writing Blocks Failed - Incompatible Configuration" every.......single........time. No matter what I do. Stumped by this :( :(
That is strange. I would try the as built method and see if that works
@@AutoDad Thanks! Will do. Need to research the correct codes. Keep you posted.
Plugged in forscan yesterday when it was going down the checklist everything was good until the very bottom DTC error not sure how to clear any help would be grateful thank you

I change the steering wheel on my 2017 F350 XL To a XLT steering wheel with buttons how can I get them buttons to work with my aftermarket stereo. I’m pretty sure I have to go into the BCM but I don’t have the values numbers for XLT
Is there a way to change the heated seats when you restart the engine that the heated seats come back on to the previous setting?
Can you enable LED bed lights in the BMC programming?
Anyone ever have a pre collision assist on/off pop up after doing some forescan changes? How do you get rid of it?
I changed my whole headlight housing to ANZOS. But the whole housing flickers at random times. How can you fix this?
I just bought a 22 f150, will this allow you to reset the tcm back to factory settings, so the truck can learn my driving habits?
I have a 2017 F150 Lariat. Can it be programmed to give numerical temp readings on the gauges? Also turn off thedouble tap horn. Thanks
Yes to both
Can you still find an up to date spreadsheet for a 2023 F150?
Thanks!
Any idea why I’m only seeing the APIM, PAM, and BdyCM Modules?
I have a 2016 f150 Lariat 3.5L V6 and I’m using the ELM327 connector.
Are those the stock headlights? My 20 lariat has the white outline leds not the amber. The amber is much better.
I agree. Yes, stock. They used them only from 2015 through 2017
I’m stuck! I’ve downloaded and got the license. When I get to the part where you click “load license” it takes me to a bunch of folders and I don’t know where to go from there. I’m so computer illiterate!
Go to your downloads folder. Should be in there
You don’t have to use a lap top to change the logo on the radio at all. There are buttons you can press and do all sorts of hacks in the f150. Ppl you don’t have to go through all the trouble he is showing. On steering wheel where volume is and arrows press the one point right and the same one on your unit at the same time and you’ll have the options. It will say testing.. end test when it comes up then press test setting then press theme.
This works for some people, but not all. Some have reported that the change does not stay. The purpose of this is to introduce what the software can do, not just change a logo
Great video! Having problems with my Electric rack and pinion on my 2015 Ford Explorer. Will this help me reprogram the module?
I am not sure. You would need to research it
What’s wrong with your rack and pinion? I could possibly help.
have you ever tried any of the more complex mods? example adaptive headlights. They normally require changes in several modules however in the BCM there is a one click button to enable them. Does that change the other modules as well?
Great video, I love it. I have a 2021 lariat with the 12 inch screen, Is there a way to make the CarPlay full screen?
That I am not sure of
Is there a way to reverse the auto start stop switch to default to the off. ?????So when you want to use it you hit the switch to turn it on ????
Yes. It is in the body control module
@@AutoDad thanks I will look into that module
