Can any of the Canadian truck owners check something for me. Do you all receive a CEL when programming tires larger than 35's?

I had eberlestock try several values while we dialed in his tire size and even with AD7 entered he never got a check engine light. I was hoping if some other Canadian trucks could confirm this we might be onto something. For my US Job 1 '17 truck ABA is the largest i can go without hitting the limit within the TCM and triggering a CEL.

Using the ABA Hex code translates to 364rev/km in the TCM. Anything lower than this 364 causes the CEL to come ON.

So someone with a Canadian truck if you could pull the PID from the TCM "Tiresize, revs/km" and see what it reads where you are now.... no CEL light and tell me. Then try a large code such as AD7 or B75 and then refresh the TCM PID and tell me what that number is again.

Thanks

 

With the 16 SD and older, you woudl put your key remotes into programming mode. This woudl allow you to program a 3rd or different remote. The Keypad was just treated like another remote. In the 17 and newer...you can NOT put into programming mode. That is way I am wondering how we program a keypad to the system. We will need to do a F450 in a couple months. The dealership woudl let me watch what they do to see if I can figure out what they are doing.

I know the dealership needs the code that in the box the keypad is in to program to the truck.

The door code that every '17+ Super Duty truck ships with (regardless of whether it has a keypad or not) is already programmed so when installing a wired keypad, it only has to be enabled in the BCM and and wired up and it will work. A dealership doesn't need the factory code to enable it but they can pull the code for a customer who doesn't know what it is. Once the keypad is enabled you can program additional keypad codes via the Sync screen if you enable the door keypad menu item in APIM. I own IDS (dealership software) so I can tell you there is a simple option to enable keypad (same as the BCM value change that can be done with FORScan) and there's another option in IDS to pull the factory code for a customer that doesn't know it.

A wireless keypad would be a different story and would need to programmed like a key.

 

I have a question for you guys. I was trying to to do the Bambi mode. My truck is a 2015 with the Halogen.
Module codes reads as follows 726-27-01
the three boxes read as follows
0000 - 0000 - 55
According tot the 2017 spreadsheet posted, I should use Fog Lights with High Beam HALOGENBdyCM as built726-27-01x0xx xxxx xxxxx1xx xxxx xxxx
So when I change the code to 0100 - 0000 - 55, and hit write, the system says the its not a valid code and automatically changes the 55 to a 56. the dash clicks as if it was entered but the fogs do not stay on with the HIGH beams.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Thanks!

You can't use the 2017 spreadsheet for your '15, in 2017 the BCM was totally changed and the addresses/values aren't compatible with yours. Use this spreadsheet instead: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...#gid=882975515

 

The "English Selected" announcement went away after a while on mine. What graphics are you talking about? Maybe I didn't notice them before I made the switch. My issue now is that the channel guided doesn't come up anymore. I don't know if that's because of the code change or because my subscription ran out for a while and then I renewed it.

 

I noticed today in my truck that when I go to fuel prices it shows that the language is English (UK) is selected (no other English options available), but it doesn't show the fuel price in US dollars? I believe the only changes I made were to put the seat ac controls on the screen and to be able to type addresses while driving that could cause any issue with the screen. Anyone else run into this?

Thanks

 

This is happening from the change to allow NAV/texts in motion. What version of Sync 3 are you running? You may be able to upgrade your Sync version to a newer one and you won't have the problem with fuel prices not being in U.S. dollars even with the NAV in motion enabled or maybe a simple APIM reset in FORScan (wrench icon) will jump start that into U.S. dollars.

 

I will check the version tomorrow and then try the APIM reset. Thank you

 

You are correct the announcement did in fact go away.
The graphics I am referring to are the SIRIUS channel logos.
Im with you the channel guide doesn't come up, AND the channels themselves are no longer even numbered when you turn the dial.

Going back to the stock code soon, just haven't had time to sit down with it to change back.

 

Any advice on getting my Galaxy Tab A to connect to the obd mx adapter ? It connects to my laptop with no issues . Trying to get it to connect to Forscan Lite on my tablet is proving to be a challenge . Should I be using a different Bluetooth connection other than "0" ( there is also 1 and 2 ) ? When I attempt to pair using the settings menu on the tablet , the adapter shows up , I click it and a screen pops up to enter code , then it disappears and another screen pops up and says unable to connect . Any advice or help would be appreciated !!!

 

 

 

Is there somewhere in Forscan to enable key programming ? I purchased a spare IAS key and tried the programming 10+ times and I get no indication of any kind that the programming mode is working . I did exactly as the manual instructed , but no luck . Thanks for any advice .
