FORScan issues

Using a elm 327 usb adapter to try and set this 2015 F350 Diesel to Bambi mode using the address 726-27-01 on BCM module. When I enter the new value 0000 0001 55 and hit write it acts like it changed by scroll bar on bottom of page but the values reverted back to stock 0000 0000 55. I did recycle the motor and checked but no fog lights on with high beams. The default value is not the same as spreadsheet for 2017. Can someone explain whats going on and what do I have to do to get the bambi mode on the 2015 F350 diesel.

Not real sure if the 2017 spreadsheet will work on a 2015 might need to search for a spreadsheet or values for your module year vehicle.

And for Halogens, appears you were changing the wrong value. Here's what the 2017+ spreadsheet has for Halogens.

Fog Lights with High Beam HALOGEN
BdyCM as built 726-27-01
Old value: x0xx xxxx xxxx
New value: x1xx xxxx xxxx

For programing whether it has been for a Ford or VW vehicle I have had the most luck finding the settings on the forums. If you have a 2015 then I would head to the 2015 forum and start searching or asking around. Good luck!

Did you try the Halogen settings? Looks like previously you were trying the LED settings.

Got the fog light issue solved for the 2019 F350. Went and reprogrammed so PDF % is in the information section and put the heated and cool seat icons on the start screen as well as heated steering wheel icon. After doing all this my wife tried to lock the truck with fob inside and it wouldn't lock. Got any suggestions or thoughts about this issue and how to remedy it?

Finding the gremlins can be a pain, the easiest way is to revert your changes one by one trying the key after each one. Or you can restore as built data and make your changes again one by one checking the key after each change until you find the one that disabled the key.

Hey, thanks for input. Let me tell you whats going on. My wife was claiming she could lock the doors with handle with her key fob inside the vehicle. Yes she could since she had the other key fob in her purse within 3' of door. What can you do or say to that?

I don't believe Bambi mode is activated through Forscan on a 2015. IIRC there is a relay that needs one leg grounded to keep the fog lights on when the high beams are activated.
As suggested, a search of forums dedicated to earlier model trucks will provide better information.
