Forscan changes - tweak your truck

[dboat]

Yes, my Sequoia and MB has this feature. I like it.

My Acura, gone now, had it and I really liked it.

You want that? My wife's old Acura did that. It drove me absolutely nuts, I wanted to see what I was about to run into and all the mirror showed me was the ground. I felt like I was backing up with blinders on.

try using the rear view camera to see whats behind you and not run into anything - and the tilted mirrors to see the parking lines.

So if I have a Cobb ECU tuner, will thIs conflict with Forscan?

It shouldn't because you're modifying different modules in Forscan than what your Cobb tuner is modifying.

2 quick questions.

is there a spread sheet for the available changes on the 2020' F-150's?

I sold a buddy a used 17' Raptor. I did a bunch of Forscan changes for him. We needed to program a second key and when we tried to do that we couldn't. Our lead tech contacted Ford and they said we needed to reset I believe 2 of the modules. Could a Forscan change affect programing another key? As our tech was going through the programming process he got to the step that said to turn the ignition key on. Truck is push button start. Yes we did try just pushing the start button to accessory mode and that didn't work. Has anyone run into this issue?

I am in Europe, Romania. I have a Raptor. Is Lobo, i think for mexico or Canada because is in Km, not miles.
I want to make some forscan changes and i wish to know what is the best adapter for my truck. Maybe with a link from where to buy.
I know this question was many many times here, but i cant find it, so many to read...

A normal ELM 327 can be good. I can buy here locally and is very cheap. Maybe too cheap to be good. Or i need a special one.

I just want to change a DLR, folding mirror and maybe other small thinks. And also to red the codes when will come.

Thanks.

1 - look at the spreadsheet on the regular F150 site, you will need to sort thru yourself
2 - can't see how this is related

I've been using mirrors so long that they're second nature. Looking at the backup camera is strictly a child/gear check before getting to business. I can tell how close I'm getting to objects when I use the mirror, but I just don't have a feel for that dang fish-eye lense and it's distortion and I don't trust it. Maybe someday I'll start to rely on it. Of course, that's when it will fail ...
