Using FORScan, I have enabled a few items with no issues. Today was for Global Windows Open/Close. I made the changes to APIM (for SYNC4 menu), and DDM, PCM, and BdyCM (as it appears for me). I have verified the changes three times, still no joy. I decided to check the settings with the "Easy" method. All Global Windows options in APIM, DDM, and PCM are Enabled. Now the fun part. In BdyCM, here are the options. Global Open - Vehicle and Global Close - Vehicle are Enabled. Anyone with a 2023 and Global Windows working care to verify that this is correct for me? I really don't know what else to try at this point. I'm guessing that the second "press and hold" should only be for a second or two, and I've tried way past that.
And I don't know if it is important, but where is the Global Windows option supposed to be located at in the SYNC4? I can't find it anywhere, although APIM says that it is Enabled.
In my 22 I changed 7 lines of as builts I believe. 2 in the PDM, 2 in the DDM and then the other three were in the APIM and BCM. You have to make sure global open and close are both turned on. You also have to press and hold on the second press for something like 5 seconds or more.
to me it sounds like you may not be holding the button long enough. Just try pressing and holding the second one for up to 10 seconds. If it doesn’t work in that amount of time, it’s not correct.

Still no joy. I tried really quick clicks, moderate time between clicks, and pretty spaced clicks, all ending with a looonnnng 10-second press.
Update, I followed the locations and it works for my 2022 F150 XLT Supercrew.
Thank you old bear you are appreciated...
I have a 2022 F150 XLT and tried to program from people on YouTube. They were in locations not the same as you.(of course it didn't work) so my question is the list you provided is for a 2022? Because your locations are completely different. And are they they ones I copied ?

23 Lariat. I’ve got it working using as built, but it only controls the front windows. This is a change from my 18 SCREW which could control all 4 windows. It also stinks compared to my 14 Passat which controls all 4 windows and the sunroof. 🤣
