I've seen daytime running lights being a thing, not much else. Maybe AC manipulation?


Anything else cool that can be done with my truck?


I'd like to get this up and running on my galaxy tablet and play with it.
No ac manipulation.

It has been discussed but was never successful, I was able to do it using a different software, IDS, same system Ford dealers use and then only by manual input, there is no setting to change that will stay changed without having IDS connected and accessed every time the truck is started.

There's another thread around here about using a resistor to fool the hvac module so the compressor runs longer, has nothing to do with Forscan.

Messed with it a bit on my 2012, does not appear to be a lot of standard changes on the non-as built data tabs. Luckily it did not have any background DTC's despite some of the issues I have been having.

Turned on DRL just to try a change and then it offered up an engine hour meter but I never could locate it in the cluster, probably not a valid option on the 2012.

Ill have to try messing with the code changes like some have been to see if there are more changes available like auto fold mirrors or something.

My 2013 either, now our 2016 Transit 250 road service truck has an hour meter in the center cluster. So it's obviously a possibility.
