Came back to truck at 50mins, radio shut off at the 60min mark!
I was able to restart the radio by opening and closing my door.

Wondering if anyone can help me... I finally have my Windows tablet and have it all set up with the OBD MX link, OBD Wiz and FORscan Windows Beta version installed. I generated an extended license key and when I attempt to download the key/program, the file says there are 0 bytes in the file to download. I can almost taste the disabled horn honk! LOL Please help!

That's weird, maybe try a different browser or temp disable virus/malware protections? The license file is only 3kb in size and worked fine for me using Chrome with my virus/malware programs running.

OK next thing... when the start button is pushed (no brake) and hit a second time the truck is effectively in the ACC mode the only thing that works is the radio and windows. Anybody try their windows after changing the radio timeout?

First off, many many thanks for the hours of work you and everyone testing have put into this.

I do have two questions, but no hurry in answering:

1) Is the last 4-digit group (the CCCC below) for each parameter the checksum:

7D0-01-01 AAAA BBBB CCCC

2) Have you determined that FORscan will actually calculate this checksum correctly from the data in the first two groups (AAAA and BBBB)?

Or am I misunderstanding?

Again, many thanks for your work!

7D0-01-01 AAAA BBBB CCDD - DD is the checksum

I'm still doing it the hard way but I take Livoniabob and anyone else at their word that it will automatically calculate it. I have some plans for testing tonight though and I will be trying this
