I'm trying to reset my calibration after Deaver +3HD and Fox 3.0s, but Forscan will not display the VDM module upon connection. I'm running the most recent Forscan version (2.3.59) and all the latest drivers for my OBD EX. It connects and I can run PIDs, but no VDM when viewing the dropdown. I did buy the truck used but really don't think there is a tune as it's docile in Normal mode and everything functions like stock. Anybody have any ideas?

I think some had issues until they tried an earlier version of Forscan.

I found this in my records, maybe it will help.

"Update (Gen 3, but may apply to Gen 2). I can confirm it's the FORScan version, not having a tune, that impacts whether VDM can load. I updated my FORScan version and lost the date there. Tried uninstalling my tune after reading this thread and no dice. Tried reverting back to FORScan 2.3.48 and bingo. VDM loads in this version even with my AccessPort installed and maps loaded"

I also read that too. I reverted to the same version as this guy and still no VDM. My PCM is also reading as a Ford strategy, so I don't think there's a tune. Maybe I'll have to visit the dealer, which I'm not a fan of.

Are you starting with a new profile when Forscan first connects?

Rears at 3.00mm look perfect. I forgot to check my front height before installing Eibachs. But after calibration they come up closer to 0.00. I meant after parking the truck on level ground just press on the bumpers a couple of times to settle down the suspension and see where you are truly at.

Stock suspension

So i recalibrated my suspension today, several times actually. I put it in engineering test mode as directed in forscan, and then recalibrated. With fuel being nearly exact, i have recalibrated several times and consistently have come up with 3mm front, 12mm rear. I cannot get this thing to zero like people talk about. Am I missing something or is this where it should be at stock. Everything was way out prior to. Thanks in advance.
