I suggest buying the one year subscription. It does allow access to more features. It cost me less then $20.00 Canadian. Plus you get to support all the R&D that goes into running the website and features of this program.
If you read and open the modules that are NOT labeled "AS BUILT", then you do not have to deal with the spreadsheet style or changing numerical code. You will get the simplified text parameters, and drop down menus of textual explanations of options to enable or disable certain things. Its MUCH simpler.
Thank you this was very helpful , new forscan user and had 0 issues changing a few settings. If you are tuned like i am the only thing you need to do is get the part number for your BCM which you can google, no need to take off kickpanels or anything. I have a Gen1 Raptor and once i put in the part number i was good to go.
Thank you very much! With the help of your video and a few other resources, I was able to swap my bad rack with a replacement used rack for under 500 bucks. The programming was the smoothest part, thanks to your awesome directions. So appreciative! Thanks!
Thank God I got rid of the double honk on my '16 Explorer Sport 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. Can't tell you how many times I blew out my ear drums or woke neighbors 😵💫🫣. I wasn't sure about that message that came up after hitting write but you confirmed to continue. Now on the other mods. Thanks for sharing 🫡
Don't be a free-loader the rest of your life folks. Spend the 12 bucks for a full functioning product while supporting those that developed the software. Nothing is "Free".
@@ENVY____ yeah but the 12 bucks keeps it going and can likely save you hundreds of dollars over the dealer doing something like activate a trailer brake controller after install.
He's not circumventing any protection he's just using the trial version there's nothing morally wrong with that at all stop trying to guilt other people.
Hey Hunter, thank you for explaining in detail, I have a 2020 Explorer Police interceptor which didn't come with key fob and I'd like to add a key fob but I cant seem to find the correct procedure for this car, also cannot find forscan spreadsheet for the values. I was hopping you can show the rest of the world how that's done on this 2020 Explorer Police interceptor. Thank you
Amazing video. Many thanks for sharing. I noticed when you made a backup of your 'As built" module. I also noticed there was a "Load factory AB" function. Is that a good way to go if you really mess up. Also, what does "Restore All" and "Load All" do
Best to save copies of original modules before making changes. Then if you make a mistake or want to remove all changes you just need to Load All and click on your saved file.
Very good video. Very informative. I have a 21 Ford raptor. Which has the amber DRL lights. I saw something about brightness on the DRLs I think it says 60% to 75%. Does that mean I can turn the brightness up on my DRLs. And can I turn the brightness on the three extra amber lights which come with the raptor also in the fender flares Amber lights can they all be turned up brightness wise with four scan.
Thank you very much for this video and the spreadsheet you made available. I would like to know if it is possible to disable the DRL "burnt out" bulb warning on a Jeep Renegade. Greetings from Brazil!!
Hi - Have a 2007 Ford F-150 5.4 . I don’t want to modify any factory settings. I just want to be able to read live data or any pending codes and be able to clear them. Am I able to do that with forscan? First timer. Thanks
Upgrading from a 150 to a 250 amp alternator and replacing the standard starter battery to dual AGM H8's, my mechanic states that he needs more than merely knowing 'H8' but needs the 'serial number' of each battery. Is this the case?
Is this searchable? For example, if I want to change injector size can I search for where I need to make the change? Since I don't see a spreadsheet for my 2002 Mustang GT.
@@impaqtmusic524 Point is, I didn't realize FORScan is not a two way scanner. Still made good use of it to program a couple keys, and for that I'm grateful.
You make me krazy, 5 days I'm trying to do, it's not easy, finally I did but my computer it's broken the screen. I need please same like this but it can works on android devices, or on google Chrome OS Version. Thank you your video it was excellent 👍👍👍👍
Hey bro, great video. I bought a Ford Raptor 2018, but had to replace its original front radar by a used one. However, I believe it must be programmed please help
Thank you so much for the video. Is there a way to retrieve or reprogram the door lock key code with Forscan? Never got the door unlock code with the vehicle when my wife purchased it for me as a gift 2010 Ford F-150. Thanks
im gonna install the 12inch infotainment display upgrade on my 2022 f150 but im wondering what are the things i should change in the forscan so it can work perfectly?
Why do some of the rows have "RESTORE" & "WRITE" and others don't? I'm trying to change my Bronco Badlands to have the sport mode but that row doesn't have "READ""WRITE" to the right of it. In those cases do you just use the "WRITE ALL" towards the bottom of the screen?
Great video !!! This has a tidbit harder to follow interface than APPcarDiag FCA . But in the end similar process. Can one write VIN when swapping a Used PCM to a car ? thanks .
Just buy the extended license you cheapskates! It's only $12 per year to help support Forscan, which is, a drop in the bucket for what they provide. Other than that, thank you for the video. Very comprehensive!
Thanks for informative video, question when i connect to Bluetooth from laptop to obd can o switch on the car instead keep ignition on position? As I experienced obd draining the battery
well. done. i spent 140 bucks on the BT version on amazon - should have just got the 30 dollar corded version instead. Prolly would have worked the same. but oh well. great video.
Your videos are great and very informative. I have a 2003 Lincoln Navigator and a 2011 Ford Taurus SEL. My interest is mostly for diagnostics, such as misfires, etc.. The Navigator is now 20 years old. With that in mind, will ForScan take care of diagnostics for both vehicles? Thanks for the feedback.
Hi mate thank u for the guidance really appreciated! Can you tell me how to find a way on forscan to enable me to connect an electric front driver seat on my FORD kuga/escape as I just PURCHASED the seats for my kuga but the drivers seat is electric and ive been told I need to program it to the car using forscan for it to work
Hello , thank you for your video, when you save your as built settings, where does it save them to so if i want to come back a day, week, month down the road i can find the as built settings. thank you
Can you PMI on all modules? BCM,PCM,IC, RCM, ABS , ETC... CAN YOU PULL KEYLESS ENTRY CODES? PROGRAM PATS KEYS? UP TO WHAT YEAR MODEL ON KEY PROGRAMMING? ASBUILT DATA?
I noticed the IPM (image processing module) on the extra list of functions. Does it off the feature to calibrate the IPM? I own an autoglass company and this would be a cool feature to experiment with. (I also use the Autel Calibration tool so nobody get there panties in a bunch)
Good video, I have a 2010 ford fusion hybrid I replaced the abs module and hydraulic pump using forscan I program the module but my dash abs, advance traction and check brake still on and the car have no brakes. I'm not sure if I program correctly, after I program message say recycle ignition off and back on I did it but no message tell me if programing completed. If possible can you do a video or can I contact you directly. Thank you
Good video. I have a question, please. do you have any idea how to add the camera icon (to activate or deactivate the camera) in the sync home screen ? (at the top right next to home icon ). what is the line or lines of code to modify (with Forscan). THANKS
Have a question but.... FIRST Thank YOU for the very educational video in using FORScan and the describing the difference between the (factory as is data) vs the Blank data! But, when I hook up FORScan for example and look at say "folding mirrors" which shows Disabled..... However, I know my folding mirror currently work. . . . If I enable... will that shut down the folding mirrors? Just a bit confused... Thanks!
I need help! Where did you get that data sheet for your truck that shows all the values in what to put in to change? I have a 2015 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 turbocharged and im trying to enable navigation on my screen. I see ford trucks use a certain line and it doesn't work for me with Sync 3. I have no idea what to change and what to. How do I get a list of all these values???
When programming modules, can you load the AS BUILT data straight from the forescan tab that says "load as built data" or do you need to get it from the ford service website first?
I bought an OBD II adapter, my laptop has windows 8. I downloaded Forscan driver, but then message says my laptop already has driver. I signed up for Forscan's two month free trial. When I attempt to operate the Forscan software on my laptop, I get can't connect to vehicle, contact producer. Anything?
My 07 Mustang is having an intermitant problem with the starter relay-pcm-ign switch system. I think it might be a wiring problem. Do you think Forscan would find that? Thanks.
I suggest buying the one year subscription. It does allow access to more features. It cost me less then $20.00 Canadian. Plus you get to support all the R&D that goes into running the website and features of this program.
Agreed it's only 12 bucks US. No brainer.

Its a trial for those who are only gonna use it like twice in their lives lmao

bruh. as a shop you should totally be able to shell out for the license. support the devs man! good video tho

Good job Hunter . would like to see video on make changes on the PCM
I recommend a wired connection. The Bluetooth one sucks. You waste more time waiting to connect.
Plus a recommended OBD Link EX is only $59.95 on Amazon
Blue tooth works Greta for me never had a issue
Oh man, thank you! Really good video, gonna make things a lot easier for me 😊
