Do we know if this voids the warranty? I see in the linked thread we have to save the factory settings one by one in the FORscan. Is there no way for me to convert to factory settings from the dash? So for example: I take the truck to get worked on at the dealer, can I just select reset to factory settings from the dash or something?

What is "secure engine idle"?

Also, is there a way to take any limits off the volume of the stereo?

No one knows. You are only adding factory options so hard to say why and how they could void your warranty.

No there is no way to change this on the dash its programmed through the ODB Port.

Can FORScan control headlight functions? (ie: running oranges instead of DTL under Auto)

Well I bought the module and got the license.
It's crazy what can be done! Super simple just follow online instructions. Well worth the $80 for the module off amazon!

I Disabled the fake engine noise, double honk, and seat belt minders! (Local dealer told me they couldn't disable the engine noise as ford would not support thier request.)

Also added heat & cool seat icons to home screen & climate touch screen, numbers above gauges in cluster, auto-folding mirrors which is freaking awesome!

How did you get the heated steering wheel to show up? I followed the spread sheet values, and only the seats showed up.

I believe that you used "2" instead of "6" in the x****

See below.

FORScan can control the DRL's. However, right now they have only figured out how to have both the LED headlights and orange LED's on in auto but they believe there is a way to get that. Hopefully they will soon... I know that it took months with multiple people and hours working together to finally figure out how to get the global window and auto mirror codes determined.

I know for a fact, if that is an option, there would be a lot of us that would want it!

Make sure you go into the respective module tab and use the correct value for what you want. The "common" tab just gives examples, so may not always be correct. The correct APIM value is "xxxx xxxx x6xx"

Absolutely!
