F150 Tremor FORScan

[Kevin]

I'm unable to use FORScan. I purchased the recommended device: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081VQVD3F?tag=f150tremor-20
and it gave me errors writing. I then returned it and got this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F0GVBWY?tag=f150tremor-20
but it was not recognized by FORScan. someone here advised me to install the BETA version which I did, but it still not working.
The only mods that I was able to do are:
- Driver & Passenger seatbelt minder status off
- Double horn honk disable.

I would like to apply more mods like:
- Global window open/close
- Bamby mode
- Reverse Tilt mirrors
- Autofold mirrors Lincoln style
- Powerpoint timeout disabled (for my car fridge to stay on)
- and more

but I can't apply any of those!

I have F-150 Tremor 2023 with 402A Package

Any help will be appreciated

I have the first adapter you brought and have never had any issues. Using windows on my laptop. make sure adapter is up to date and have the latest version of forscan. Go to motorcraft service.com. You can get as built data using your vin#. Print it off so you have a hard copy backup. This forum is really good, follow the steps and read up on it. Try the glare free lighting. Good luck

When I change one cell, I notice the last cell also change its value. Should I put it back to its original value?

 

[Kevin]

Enter the cell and do a power cycle. I have noticed the same thing. Change the number you need to and hit write icon. After that do a power cycle. Go to youtube and there are some videos that really help. Seeing it really helps

I'd have to double check, but I think that is the checksum, which changes based on the other values. So you don't worry about it.

You don't, as mentioned thats the checksum. I just learnt that recently myself. Cheers

That’s an awesome forum! Thanks guys so much for helping each other.

I was able to do lots of mods to my Tremor… but I have questions:

1. The folding mirrors Lincoln style, when I unlock the door and open it they stay folded, but when I close back the door they unfold. They don’t unfold when I turn on the ignition as states…. Any solution to that? Otherwise, no point of doing that mod.

2. The rain sensor wipers stoped working as designed. Now it is just starts, then stops for few seconds, then start again… not affected by rain.

3. Is there a mod for the drive modes to stay on ECO mode or any other mode? It switches back to default everytime I turn it on

4. My 402A package doesn’t have the autostart button nor the heated steering wheel button! May be there was supply shortage? I’m not sure… anyway, can I enable them from FORscan? So I’ll have displayed buttons instead of physical buttons? I’m not even sure if I have the heated steering wheel option installed

Thanks guys so much

On number four, you will need to install options for auto start/stop (why anyone would want this installed is beyond me) and heated steering wheel. A few have looked into/executed these in the forum here so feel free to search.

No. This is likely an embedded module difference.

3. Is there a mod for the drive modes to stay on ECO mode or any other mode? It switches back to default everytime I turn it on

No. for an EPA rating to count, the vehicle has to start in the tested mode every time (same reason ALL Auto-Start/Stop cars can't defeat the feature). Normal will always be the default, though they try to help out by asking if you want to resume the previous drive mode in the IPC on most restarts.

@P0H0 hey man, any idea how to get this splash screen? Is there a code for it?

I've only seen, other than raptors, the built RCSBs with it but that's because they swap in I'm assuming a raptor head unit when they do the interior swap.

Not sure, but I will look into it this weekend when I have some spare time.

In the ForSCAN Program, find the "splash screen" section in the BCM and select the Raptor option. I currently have it on mine, I love it, I just wish it didnt say Raptor.....lol. Th eBranco one is pretty rad too

Did some mods today, no errors no issues.

• Bambi mode fogs
• DRL w parking lights
• DRL w fogs (might undo)
• DRL full brightness (used the "60" setting and looks fine)
• No door chime
• No auto start/stop
• No double honk

Gonna do GlareFree tonight, battery on laptop was getting low and didn't want to risk it shutting down during an operation.

Thanks for the folks who figured all this out. Really takes care of a few annoyances

You'll love Glare Free!

 

[CAinCA]

Yes, Glare Free is wonderful for daily driving. My only complaint is when we take drives out in the country looking for wildlife. The high beams don’t come on until you’re going ~20mph. Most of the time we’re not going that fast. I turn them off in these situations so I can leave the high beams on constantly.

Can you override the glare free with pushing the stalk to activate high beam? I live very rural so sometimes I want as much light as possible, regardless of speed or conditions

 

[CAinCA]

No, you can't. You can pull the stalk back to flash your high beams but pushing the stalk forward just turns off the high beams. I've just been going into the menu and turning off GFH when we're out on one of these drives. It only takes a few seconds.

Question the folding mirrors Lincoln style, is when the mirrors fold when you lock the truck and unfold when you unlock, correct. These was an option in my settings to toggle this feature stock from the factory. Is this the case for anyone else? Picked up my Tremor 402A on Tuesday.
