Speed limiter, Help needed

Hello,

I am stuck trying to modify the set speed limiter on my 2019 f250. I live in Finland where these trucks unfortunately have to have a limit to 80kmh. The problem is, when changing tires to different size, the speed needs to be corrected.

I have learned that the speed in my truck has been set by lowering the trucks 100mph original governor, to 80kmh.

So if possible, what is the easiest/cheapest way to modify that particular value? I do have forscan and icarscan.

Br. Mike

You should be able to adjust tire size with Forscan:

Any ideas how to modify the trucks original 100mph speed limit for my purpose? Does anyone know which program / hardware is needed to do this?

As njburn said, use Forscan to correct the tire size and thus the speedometer.

Or are you trying to remove the speed limiter? There may be tuning options for that but I don’t have any idea how you’d get anything implemented in Finland.

I can order whatever here if someone can advice me a gadget capable of doing this. Tire size correction does not get me to safe overtaking speeds. As said, it is now restricted to 90km/h. Thats like 60mph. It is done by modifying the factory speed limiter.

checkout fivestartuning in SC, USA, they may be able to help. Note, I have no affiliation with them other than purchasing from them in the past.
