I mean, if you totally nuke some module with bad values and something truly goofy happens, that’s why you have a backup. links in this thread show you how to restore from a backup.

So what else might you do? Lincoln fold mirrors... as was pointed out earlier, you could simply operate the mirror button when you’re bored sitting at stop lights every day, and if you burn out the motor early, that’s why there’s a warranty to begin with.

now, I can see the dealer saying something if you complain about the temp gauge numbers - if you do that mod- don’t look right. The stock truck doesn’t illustrate the actual numbers on the cluster.

I’m hard pressed to think of a situation in which a dealer could proclaim abuse for programming the display, gauge values or mirror behavior.

Does anyone have the as built for the following? I'm in an 18' and making these changes had no affect on DRL other than totally disabling it. DRL is set to "on" in the IPC adv settings but I get nothing from the lights when the vehicle is put in gear. I always screen shot the as built prior to making changes but didn't this time of course....

DRL - Parking Lights only (stock LEDs only) BCM
726-26-02 x1xx xxxx xxxx
726-50-01 01xx

Still nothing for the auto start/stop disengage or will it always be a rewiring of the switch? TIA

Forscan disables auto start/stop.

Auto Start/Stop Disable BCM 726-48-02 x0xx xxxx xxxx
FCIM 7A7-01-01 xxxx x0xx xxxx (optional - disables switch)
IPC 720-01-01 xxxx 1xxx xxxx (optional - disables stop/start message center in the trip/fuel IPC menu)

Or just pull the trailer lights plug under dash, takes 2 sec.
No downside.

Just plug back in if you need to hook up a trailer

can search, "easiest way to disable auto-stop"

so 40 is 726-40-01 xxxx 2828 xxxx
and 45 is 726-40-01 xxxx 2D2D xxxx

right?

726-40-01 xxxx 1E1E xxxx - 30 psi
726-40-01 xxxx 2323 xxxx - 35 psi

I missed the part that described this setting it more detail, is there a formula to set to more #s? For example 25lbs? And/or say 28lbs?

Thanks
