Ive had mine come on in that range, if not even in the 50s. Its subtle, so I think its on low, and takes a while to heat up. I have an XLT, so heated seats only and std hvac controls.

I did the upgrade from the 4.2" to the 8" MFT with NAV, and just today to Sync3 with NAV.

Unless people found a way around it, you need the NAV activated APIM module to activate NAV. I can tell you all the programming and I am selling my MFT with NAV setup if anyone is interested. I'd also be willing to make a harness for someone if they are want to upgrade from 4.2" to 8" MFT or Sync 3.

Anybody else having this issue?
Mine have been 100% so far. I did them Thanksgiving day.

You can turn it on, I have the option enabled on my 5.0.

Can we obtain and clear engine codes with forscan? I can't find it on the program.

LMAO

Low 40's?

Well, I can tell you that in actual cold weather the TED won't put out high heat with remote start. The module will turn on level 1 heat at most and that's it. I know first hand because this is my life:


If anyone thinks they figure out how to enable full hot on heated seats with remote start, I know many Albertan's who will gladly volunteer to test it (as soon as our laptops thaw).

The triangle buttons at the bottom left of the DTC screen are for reading/resetting.

Has anyone noticed that once they added the heated/cooled seats to the home screen that the heated steering wheel control on the temp page went away?

No I have them all, are you sure you entered the right number. There are several options. I would recheck your values to make sure.
