I have followed everything by the directions and so far have everything done to the point I now need to either go into Forscan and get the directions or take to the dealer to enable Blind spot which would be best for me, the question is..... are techs at the dealership knowledgeable enough to enable this process which they would do with IDS, has anyone had the dealers do this process, please let me know what you think, otherwise is there a step by step for Forscan that I could look at, have done small items in Forscan but nothing big, this is for a 2017 F350 dually, thanks in advance for anyone’s help with this.

For Educational Purposes only. Also the configuration will vary depending on how you truck is equipped.
BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL CONFIGURATION
Roly
IPC:
720-01-01 xxxx xxxx 7xxx - CTA Present
720-03-01 6xxx xxxx xxxx - BLIS enabled
There's also another value in IPC for Trailer BLIS but without knowing your as-built values I'm not sure if this would be correct for your truck
IPC 720-09-01 8000 0100 08 or 720-09-01 8000 0180 09 - (the 9 enables the lane keeper, 08 removes the menu)
DDM/PDM: (This enables the light in the mirror)
740/741-04-01 F400 xx - Turn Signals, Puddle Lamps & BLIS
OR
740/741-04-01 74xx xx - Turn Signals & BLIS - without Puddle Lamps
SODL/SODR (This enables the radar modules)
7C4-01-01 xxx2 xxxx BLIS/CTA enabled
7C6-01-01 xxx2 xxxx BLIS/CTA enabled
You need to code your VIN in these modules in order for the modules to talk to the other modules in your truck.
Sample VIN: 1FT8W3BT3HED13111
Convert ASCII to Hex

Sample VIN coded for SODL/SODR (make sure you do both the right and left modules)
7C4/7C6-08-01 3146 5438 57xx
7C4/7C6-08-02 33xx
7C4/7C6-09-01 4254 3348 45xx
7C4/7C6-09-02 44xx
7C4/7C6-10-01 3133 3131 31xx

Any other ways to check?
I'm still looking for a truck. Is there any other way to check on one I'm looking at buying? I can't exactly pop things off someone else's truck lol
Any years to stay away from, like prior to 2015 wont have the wiring, etc?

Ok, so do you have Halogen headlights/tail lights? The only reason I added the BLIS was because I did a halogen to LED upgrade and the LED's came standard with the BLIS radar. Halogen tail lamps come with either BLIS or no BLIS. I have a Lariat Value trim and it originally came with halogen non BLIS tail lamps. When I upgraded to the LED's I had to order and replace the rear wiring harness to support the rear LED's. If your planning on keeping the halogens then you should be fine. One quick way to see if you have all the wires needed will be to remove the black mirror trim piece on the inside of the door to expose the connector from the door to the tow mirror. If you have the 22 pin connector and wires in pin 13 & 20 you will be good to go. It will just be a matter of swapping the top mirror glass out on each mirror so you have the orange dot indicator and a using Forscan to code a few modules in order to get it to operate. You will have to run 2 wires inside your tow mirrors to get power to the led indicator. I took my truck to my local car stereo shop and they ran
the wires for me. It's a lot more economical than replacing each mirror that already has the wires. (about $750 ea. vs. $80 at the car stereo place). The top glass itself with BLIS will run about $75 ea. There is another forum user who can help you with giving you those values to change if you are familiar with using Forscan? I will be more than happy to assist as I just finished this project 2 weeks ago and it works as it should with no problems. I will try to send some photos when I get a chance for install.

I want to say thank you for all of you that provided this information.
I've read this thread and others countless times. I'm missing something somewhere.
I swapped to LED tail lights and BLIS, changed the harness, moved the two wires. They work great.
I pulled the wires through the mirror and wire in, hook everything up and then program with forscan. I update the modules with the correct vin and adjust the parameters in the 5 areas necessary. BLIS/CTA are options in the IPC (not trailer BLIS) and I get this code: B11D6:15:AB
The code is circuit short to battery or open.
I've been over the wiring a bunch. I've been looking through Forscan. I am totally lost. If anyone is still looking at this I would love some help.

Would you be able to send the codes as well? I have blis already and replaced a sensor and now I need to use forscan to reprogram the new module. I’m getting the same error codes. Just don’t know what needs to be changed.
