Forscan changes - tweak your truck

[FastEddie]

Just tried to connect to a 2019 F150 to make some changes and kept getting a message that it could not connect. That message also asked it the key was on.

Is there an issue with 2019's?

Nope. Works fine on mine. Make sure you have the right adaptor and follow the directions step by step.

I've used it on my 17' and a 16' but trying to connect to a 19' yesterday it wouldn't connect.

Go to the web site and submit an update for your license to make sure you have the latest version of the software.

I'll do that.

I just tried it again and got a message to contact the developers

Mine works fine on 2019, I did reinstall the latest version of forscan and had to renew my license though

 

[03'Darin]

I haven't had time to ask for a new license again but last time I did it before my current licenses expired it wouldn't give me a new one.

How do I download the newest version?

Got it... updated to the current version and it works now

COST AND PARTS FOR RAPTOR FORSCAN:

My appologies if this answer is already in this thread somewhere. I searched but could not find it.

What is needed to do Forscan on a 2017 Raptor 802A SuperCrew? I have Windows Laptop and Android Samsung Note8 Smartphone. What is the cost for the Forscan software, OBD plug, & whatever else is needed? Where to get it from?

Thanks, HT

Forscan is free. OBD plug depends on which you choose.

I just checked Amazon. Theres a load of choices for connection and scanners. Anybody have a recommendation that works well for changing settings on 2017 Raptor? Im an IT guy so I can handle the setting changes once I have the right scanner device and SW. Appreciate any detailed info on what Scanner to get, WiFi, Bluetooth, or wired, Forscan version, etc.

Get the wired one that is linked in the spreadsheet.
