1. Make sure truck is turned off and accessory timeout has expired
2. insert MX BT into OBDII port and and power truck on (without engine running).
3. Launch FORScan & press connect
Edit: and make sure you followed the pairing process as described in the MX BT instructions.

This keeps your hand from getting stuck in the window or a child or animal, etc.
I have the same issue with my Weather Guard visors. Its habit now that if it doesn't close the first time, close it again and hold the button until it closes.

Make sure you aren't running the OBDWiz software that shipped with the MX BT. Try connecting in this order:
1. Make sure truck is turned off and accessory timeout has expired
2. insert MX BT into OBDII port and and power truck on (without engine running).
3. Launch FORScan & press connect
Edit: and make sure you followed the pairing process as described in the MX BT instructions.

Thanks. I'll try that when I get home. Going to dinner in my wife's crap Dodge Avenger, haha. I hate not being in my truck!
I'll have to find the instructions. This is the first time I've used it in a couple/few months.

Well I just looked again and I see something called "Comfort Vent" and the options are configured/not configured (default). I guess you could try this in DDM/PDM and see if it does anything. I have no idea what this is/does.
740/41-05-01 xx4x xx - Comfort Vent configured
740/41-05-01 xx4x xx - Comfort Vent configured
I'll have to try it on mine and see if it is similar.

Hello friends,
I wanted to ask if you could help me out. I currently own a 2015 Mustang GT with the collision warning system. I ripped the radar our, because I wanted to swap the lower grille, which was fine for me, since I never used the adaptive cruise control anyways and I loathe the forward collision warning. Now everytime I start the car, I get a popup warning saying that the "forward collision warning system" is not available. I would love to disable the adaptive cruise control and the forward collision warning system. Do any of you knowledgeable people know how to accomplish this via forscan?
Thank you kindly for your time

I wonder if this is something similar to my 2012 Mustang. When you open the door, the window cracks open just a bit. When you close the door, the window then goes back up and closes fully after the door latches shut. This is to relieve air pressure in the cabin when closing the door.
I'll have to try it on mine and see if it is similar.

BMS Setting?
I note that the Battery Monitoring System settings in the spreadsheet are as follows:
726-04-01 xxx2 xxxx xxxx Battery Monitoring System Enabled
726-04-01 xxx0 xxxx xxxx Battery Monitoring System Disabled
However, in my 2017 F150 the original setting for 726-01-01 is xxx1 xxxx xxxx. Does that mean the Battery Monitoring System is half enabled?
726-04-01 xxx2 xxxx xxxx Battery Monitoring System Enabled
726-04-01 xxx0 xxxx xxxx Battery Monitoring System Disabled

However, I believe it is for the sunroof... when I have this setting enabled and my sunroof is vented open... when I shut my car off and open the drivers door. The sunroof closes itself.
