If it does, I'm not aware of that. You can activate sensors, solenoids, etc. for testing systems (such as EVAP). But as far as programming, I don't think so. I think you actually CAN program things like turning off seat belt chimes.... seems like you can also change the code on the keypad. Ford IDS is much more thorough. You can do PCM's, ABS modules, etc.
I also have Ford IDS, but I haven't played with it much because I drive Ford's and they don't need to be worked on...... or something like that, LOL.

Whitey...do you have the IDS controller module or are you using a DTC port to computer hardware and IDS software program? If it's a software, we need to talk. LOL I need to swap 2 codes for my ABS on my 07 Mustang to turn off the light on my cluster. I've done the cluster swap to 6 gauges, and the only thing I couldn't stop was this light. I have the codes from an 08 and vin info to program the changes but not the module. A buddy on Mustang Source has one and has given me info etc. I got the correct codes from a tech at Ford, but haven't done it yet.

I can probably do it.... at least the Bambi part. I researched that a while back when someone wanted to know how to do "Bambi" to gen 10's.

Yeah, I know. I know, no politics. But, I know of someone with a long history of never finishing what he starts and if they had any clue they would be the one that pisses their pants and cry's. What an emotional and intellectual moron. If wishes were real mine would be that the moron had to be there. Maybe feeling real anger, fear and rage would wake the MF up.

I am also scared... he's a loose cannon. I believe that if we go to war, he's a shoe in for a second term. I want someone more middle-of-the-road in the white house. I was really hoping Jon Huntsman would give it another go, but it looks like he's running for Governor here again.
