Have a 2016 PIU, I've installed the Ford remote start. I need someone with Forscan who can activate it in the computer, maybe turn off some of the dark car features as well. Be happy to pay you for your time. I'm in S/W Fla (Fort Myers)

Hello all; I'm looking for some help with my cars IPC module, 2017 Explorer XLT. the problem started last week when suddenly noticed that the Trip 1 & 2 meter started resetting every time the car is switched off for some time. I wanted to check DTCs with Forscan and found some errors in the IPC...

Since it's Friday, I figured, why not post this one too! Another question I got asked was, "Can Global Windows Close be enabled?" Answer is YES! The video attached shows Global Windows Close via keyfob! **Global Windows Open should be enabled by default as standard. Check your vehicle settings...

Sooner or later, the parking lines on the 360 degree camera will not align and a calibration is needed. This used to be available only with FDRS. Then the F150 was able to do it with Forscan, but Explorers could not. I am happy to report that with the current latest version of Forscan 2.3.66...

Good morning team, I installed a 1.5" Traxda lift kit (front and rear) on my '23 Timberline and have observed that the reverse camera's indicator lines are no longer true. Can FORScan be used to recalibrate the camera, or is this something I would need to request the dealership to do...

I've gotten a few requests in forums and social media groups to look into a way to disable auto idle shutdown after 30 minutes (toggle stays off) instead of it going back to enabled at every start up. So I had a bit of free time earlier today and finally looked more into it. Good news--its now...

Hello, I know it's not a big deal, but I'm not feeling so comfortable with this. I bought my Ford Explorer 2023 without the climate icon on my screen! Could someone please tell me how to add it or if anyone has the icon on their car, could you share the As-Built configuration for APIM? Thank...

Below is the link to the updated FORScan changes that is currently available for our 2025+ Ford Explorer and applies to all trims for those who don't have an ST. This one is for us, which helps compile all into one. Keep in mind that the sheet will be updated by @powerboatr and @Nightshade...

I have a 2014 FPIU. I have been trying to turn off the dark car mode to configure remote keys for my explorer. I am trying to search for the BCM (AS BUILT format) but i couldn't find it. I am pretty much new to it. So i couldn't figure it out and came here for help. Details: 2014 Ford Explorer...

So there's already discussions about increasing the DRL/Signature Lights brightness for the F150 and Explorer 2020+ using FORScan (link: How to: - DRL LED Bar brightness boosted using FORScan mod! ). I was wondering if there was any for the 2016 XLT model. Rn the Signature Lights are at high...

Hello everyone, I'm scanning my vehicle's OBD2 using FORScan and noticed something unexpected. My vehicle has an engine (TIVCT), but the PCM module configuration shows a (BCDF). Which one is correct? (TIVCT) or (BCDF)? Thank you!!!

Hello, i bought this car last week with the fromt interface not working. Did some research and assumed it was the FCIM. I bought a replacement, plugged it in and still only have the hazard button being the only one that works. Radio controls do not work, and hvac is set to heat with the front...

Hi everyone, I have a ‘17 Explorer XLT and was wanting to add power-folding mirrors to it. I was able to buy the Explorer from a family friend for a good price and low miles so I am willing to spend what is required to add this feature as my garage door is a couple inches too narrow. When...

I have been all over the places I can think of, and I cannot find a spreadsheet or any document with as-built codes for a 2013 PIU. I have found quite a few LINKS but they all go to an iCloud page that no longer works. I am mostly trying to work with the stereo, Bluetooth, and rear-view camera...

I recently purchased the ODBLINK EX , since my last ODB cable was unable to connect to BCM module. However this one doesn't seem to bring up the option either. Hopefully someone can help. Here's some pictures of the laptop screen when connecting

Thanks to the information presented in other threads I was able to replace my Sync2 system with a Sync3 APIM and screen from a 2017 Explorer. After a couple weeks of reading and testing different asbuilt codes I have pretty much everything working except a specific type of nav information...

Is there a forscan setting to enable front speakers or something else.I tested speakers and harness is connected. Rear speakers work . Please help.

Hello, I am completely new to the community, I just purchased a used 2017 Ford Explorer PIU earlier today. It came with the standard key, no key fobs or anything else. I would like to know what I can do to modify things in the vehicle if ever needed. I‘d love to start with getting a key fob, I...

Hey guys, A while back I had a 2015 PIU and successfully made a bunch of mods using an OBD connector and FORScan installed on my laptop. Including: AWD Display, RKE, Dark Car etc. I am buying a 2016 PIU now, which to my understanding is the next generation and after spending hours and hours on...

I started a new thread as I have not found any real discussion on this. Adding it to the end of the thread titled "New Forscan Update Allows Module Programming" just means that it will get lost. Link:New Forscan Update Allows Module Programming I have a 2014 Edge. That's pretty close to an...

Hello everyone. I’m looking for someone that can do some mod changes on my 2014 Explore or help me do them. I live in Portsmouth but can travel to any of the cities nearby. I look forward to hearing your someone.

Hey all, greetings from the Flex forums. As you probably know, the Explorer gets all the fun new technology while the Flex has been completely forgotten by Ford. Pretty much the only difference between a 2013 and 2019 Flex is Sync3 and paint colors -- no new features. They haven't even...

I have a 2015 sport with rear camera. I would like to hook up an additional camera for front.. Does anyone know if there is any aux input the screen and how to trigger it? Or do ai have to find a hack like Lockpic which I think I heard is out of business.

I have a 2016 PIU and have successfully made a number of configuration changes with FORSCAN. I am struggling with these two, however: AWD display - IPC 720-01-01: I have tried multiple times to enable the AWD gauge display on my 2016 PIU. I have tried both options 4 and C. No change on the dash...

Hi All I have a 2012 Explorer XLT and I also noticed that one day the backup guidelines just disappeared. Reading through these threads and various youtube videos I saw that this could be easily restored with an OBD cable and laptop using the Forscan app. So I bought a cable and downloaded...

Well after I bought two "Bad Clone" devices I need help. Can someone direct me to source for a good reader that will make Forscan happy? I'm anxious to start personalizing my car. I'm interested in hearing from someone who recently purchased their reader. These days with clones of clones...

I've been looking for a newish car and finally picked up a 2016 Explorer XLT. In the past I owned an Acura Integra, Chevy Astro Cargo, and Toyota 4Runner. So far I've blacked out the wheels with custom wrap, replaced all of the external lighting with LEDs, added carbon fiber "explorer" letters...

Hi Guys, :) Thank you for all the usefull threads on this forum, i was reading you guys often but never create a user before. I was wondering if any of you had a clean not modded copy of your BCM and IPC modual save with Forscan? For this exact model: FORD EXPLORER XLT SYNC3 2017 (Canadian...

Soo is there anyway through programming to unlock the nav for access by the passenger while driving and also to activate for watching trailer when towing or just checkingout the dork behind you LOL..

Greetings.... I installed some LED turn signals that supposedly had built in resisters to keep them from hyperflashing...but, alas, they lied...Anyway, rather than put in those tacky resistors, I wanted to use my shiny new OBD2 device to program the BCM. I found my way through that maze of...

PlatinumOwner has gone to the trouble of figuring out the codes in the BCM in order to enable DRLs and to also allow the LED turn signals to work without resistors. It disables the bulb outage warning and is supposed to stop the hyperflashing. Look at the second link where he lays it out in a...

Hi Everyone, I was not able to find a thread that seemed to align specifically with my issue. I have a 2016 Ford Explorer Sport 401A Package. This means it has the wireless key FOB with the factory installed remote starter and perimeter alarm. I recently used ForScan to remove the double honk...

Mod: Don't know if you want to leave this in basic forum or move to MOD section. Kinda gray area since its essentially changing OEM settings. Don't usually do disclaimers but I feel this one needs it. DISCLAIMER: The content listed is for modifying existing code in your control units. You do...

I just wanted to shout out to Forscan for allowing me to use their upgraded software for programming 3 PAT keys. This saved me from going to the dealership and spending $400.00. I purchased an OBDLink SX for 18.00 on Amazon using a discount coupon. The module connected to my 03 Explorer...
