Default Auto-Fold Mirrors...?

Hello Everyone...I'm new here... :-)
I recently purchased a 2015 Lariat, 5.0L, Supercrew, 4X4, with only 20K miles!
I have the button on the door to fold the mirrors, but, I've been trying to figure out how to make them Auto-Fold when I lock the truck...
Everything I've read says 2015 and up, with Lariat & King Ranch Trim, has this feature, but I cannot find anything about it on my truck...
PLEASE, HELP A LADY OUT...??
Thank You!!

To enable auto fold, you’ll to need to use FORScan. It’s a great feature once setup.

In 2015 models, you also have to rewire the mirror. I know because I did that successfully on my 2016 following instructions found on this board.

Isn't the rewiring only required if you have the tow mirrors?

That’s what I thought too.

That may be true. I had tow mirrors and was unaware there was a difference in the need for rewiring.

I'm in a '15 Lariat 3.5 EB Sport and have my mirrors autofold/unfold with forscan along a few other cool things.

I have a '15 Lariat (502a) with standard mirrors and needed only Forscan to enable auto-fold.

Only for tow mirrors.
Regular mirrors do not need pin changes.

Where'd you read that? Not in your manual. They don't come from the factory with auto fold, but a simple change in Forscan can activate it. See the Forscan thread for the spreadsheet and instructions. I activated it on my truck and I like it.
