Default FORScan: Disabled DR'S and now LED headlights are flickering

Used FORScan to disable DRL'S. It's a Canadian truck and can't do it using my dash screen. Noticed last night when driving and parked that my headlights are flickering. Truck is 2015 F150 with the stock LED headlights from Ford that came with truck. Anyone else's headlights flickering after having done FORScan???

Did you notice it while looking through the front camera? Or did you see them flicker while standing outside the truck? Because when you see the light's projection through the camera they appear to flicker but in reality they are not

I can see them with my own eyes when I'm outside of the truck and driving. Not through the camera.

Try programming back to stock and see if problem goes away.

Double check your settings. I've seen things like this before and it is sometimes changing the wrong bit or the wrong address.

If you don't have any insight into FORScan and can help don't waste my time with your comments
