If anyone here is in the process of adding Adaptive Cruise Control to their trucks, I have a new test beta from the FORScan devs that includes the Cruise Control Calibration service procedure built-in. Normally, guys doing this mod would need the dealership (or someone with IDS) to carry out this final step but if anyone needs this, pm me and I'll give you a link.

 

You will still need ids if adding adaptive cruise control due to having to reprogram the pcm to recognize the changes. I ran into this problem the computer system for super duty isn't the same as f150s.

 

Got a chance to work with forscan a bit today, added dpf% to screen info and enabled Bambi mode, but when it came to displaying temps agave gauges replacing EA with E5, A5, or 65 as listed on the spreadsheet wouldn't work. Never could get it to write the new value is there anything else that has to be done? Everything else I tried worked great but changing the 720-07-01 line failed every time.

Also on the Winblows side of things is there any way to get it to display gauges like the iOS apps or is it dynamic text only?

 

Can you post a pic of this service procedure in IDS because I own IDS and haven't seen anything except the calibration procedure. I'm curious what IDS shows when connected to a '17 SD

 

what about oil life percentage?

 

This is the only feature that I want to add on my truck

 

I'm not sure what to offer on this. I've done this myself on several different trucks without difficulty. I've only changed to E5. Have you tried unplugging and replugging the adapter and restarting FORScan? I have seen erratic write errors that resolve when you shut everything down and try again.

 

This is the code it was showing

 

Any idea for the Lincoln theme ? That theme with the camel interior is really good looking !
if you enter the diagnostics screen on sync the name of the theme is lincoln-D544

Thanks

 

Thanks Livinitup.

Now I'm to my next hurdles. I didn't see, or save my extended license properly. When I go back through the Forscan process to "Generate", I get "License key with such Hardware ID already exists". On my PC, I can download it, but not open it.

Any suggestions?

 

7D0-01-02 8xxx xxxx xxxx
7D0-03-01 xxxx x2xx xxxx

OR

7D0-01-02 8xxx xxxx xxxx
7D0-03-01 xxxx x3xx xxxx

 

You sure you coded your VIN correctly in the CCM? If VIN isn't coded correctly it will throw DTCs and not work because of VIN mismatch.

 

Great thanks I'll go try it !

​​​​​​Did I missed it in the spreadsheet ??

 

Yup it was coded correctly and would still kick off adaptive cruise any time with the brakes were applied due to a car in front of me. We tried all sorts of combos. And finally shooting a different vin in my pcm from a truck that had one from factory worked.

Or it could be one extra value we need to change in forscan I am not sure.

 

This is what would pop up.
