F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

[bmwhitetx]

Noob on FORScan here. How do you find this info you posted about DSP Module Strategy using FORScan? Thanks.

I wrote a small tutorial here. I wrote instructions for phone apps like CarScanner, Forscan viewer (free), or Forscan Lite (paid but worth it). Or you can use Forscan Windows (free license is fine) with a wired dongle.

Quick update - got an OTA (with no release notes, might be due to the truck being in Norwegian now ) and after this I can activate lane change and still get lane center active - haven’t seen lane change actually work yet but at least it’s not bricking lane center assist!

In regards to this, it will not work over there. I have tried many times with the Mach E's to get lane change to work over there, but the changes that work for US vehicles do not work over there. It could be that the software in the GWM does not support lane change, or the IPMA software for Euro spec vehicles does not include the events for lane change assist. Or, it could be something else. I don't know why it won't work over there, but AFAIK, it is not possible. At least not yet.

Send me the VIN. I'll look into it later.

Thank you so much for this info. I have FORScan (Windows version) and OBDLink EX dongle. I will give that method a whirl when I get him this evening. Thanks again bmwhitetx.

Got your message. Strange that it appear as a no-name update. OTA dashboard shows it is the regular BC 1.4 update every one gets.

I do see something wrong with your config that is most likely preventing lane change assist from working. Do you have FORScan?

The no name OTA might be because the APIM is in Norwegian?

Thanks a lot! Yes I do.

So no euro-adjusted by the dealer then?

Do your tail-lights blink? I can’t get mine to do so.

No euro adjustments have been done (except using FORScan to enable Norwegian language and swapping the cellular modem so the app and OTA updates work). The truck is registered under the §5-3 exemption, as far as I know, that’s the only way to get the Extended Range battery with 5 seats as a regular car without the C1 speed limitations etc. That also means I get to keep the original red tail-light blinkers, which is explicitly approved and written in the registration papers.

Cool, have you tested BlueCruise in Sweden? They are enabled for BC
