Not sure if this is possible, but is there a way to easily reverse the Lincoln style mirror fold in setting? I'm now thinking that I'd like the mirrors to not auto fold and unfold as the truck locks and unlocks, and was wondering if there is a master list somewhere of the "original" code settings. Or is it that the "original" codes are all different for every year / style / trim of truck out there, and there is no way to know what the original codes were without having a saved original file for my truck?

2020 Autofold
Hello Im working on a 2020 Raptor it has the button to fold the power mirrors in. Im looking to understand what coding I need to do so that when vehicle is locked from key fob the mirrors fold. this vehicle does not have the option to enable in the dash like my super duty does.

Yes,you can use FORSCAN with multiple vehicles. For example, I use it with my 2020 F150 and with DW’s 2018 Explorer. As someone else mentioned, just connect to a vehicle and make sure to save files for that specific vehicle.

- perform a DPF (diesel particulate filter) operator controlled cleaning on my 2017 F350.
- repaired a “rear camera misalignment calibration” DTC on my 2020 F150. The lite version has the ability to reset all the computer modules back to OE factory settings which restored the camera settings to work as intended.
So the lite versions have some limited but very useful features that many of us can use.

Have had a ODBII MX Bluetooth module for a few years now from my last F150 (2011) just for diag/code reading. Stumbled across this thread, fired up FORScan for the first time and went to work on my new to me loaded 2019 F150 Lariat I got at the end of September just about an hour ago. Enabled stuff I wish my truck had that my wife's 2017 explorer has/my old 2011 had (Lincoln mirrors, see text messages/adjust nav), bambi mode, heated seats on the home screen and 5 blink turn signal just to name a few. Took me longer to wait for the 2 month trial license key to show up in my email than to do all the modifications I wanted to do. Insanely easy as long as you follow the guide and please for the love of god, always do an initial backup of default settings prior to racing into the mods. Anyone who is still on the fence, I just literally did it all in 15-20 minutes to include function testing the changes and I was not worried at all.
