Yes I have regular mirrors. But the tow mirrors have two different lights inside right. One for running and another for turn.

Can't be done with FORScan, you'd need to edit the EEPROM chip on the speedometer to do this.

Did anybody get the auto fold mirrors to work on the 2017?

Yep. I can confirm that the Lincoln style auto fold mirror mod works on the 2017.

I highly doubt it. For forcan, you don't want an OBD scanner, just an OBD dongle that will connect to your laptop/tablet.

I have this one and it has worked fine for me...

But if I were to do it again, I would have probably gotten a USB with MS/HS CAN switch for a few more dollars. I don't have the link, but one was posted (maybe in the 09-14 Forscan thread?) for one that was around $30-$35 IIRC.

Many on here have asked if you can change the number of blinks when activating the turn signal for lane changing. This has not been discovered, up until now.

Thanks to member @Airborne_Ape, This is now possible. Using FORScan you can configure the number of blinks, or disable completely. It also appears that whatever you set it to adds two blinks when a trailer is connected.

See his post here, complete with a video. Click on the "Thank" button there.

Enjoy!

Just confirmed in my work truck that this at least applies to 2011 to 2014 as well. I have a 2014 XL 101a which I use daily to sit in drive through's lol.
