Glare Free Headlights enabled with Forscan, but no difference?

If I had a nickel every time I did that, I'd have 25 cents. That's why I make backups now.

Yes, the first thing I did was back up all the modules like the FORscan guide says to do and it came in handy.

I also made a mistake in one of the changes and reverted to what I had saved then tried again more slowly and carefully.

Reminded me of what a pain my Fortran class was back in the 1970's on an old computer system that used punched tape (like punch cards but if you make a mistake, you have to start the whole dang tape over again).

Can you believe they sell old used punched tape as 'vintage' on eBay and ETSY?!

I guess I should have saved all the ones I fudged up in that class

YEP! It's totally transparent what's going on. I want the "bitfield" view in Forscan for sure, instead of us all in here doing binary math to find the right settings .

I hexadecimally agree!

Small snippet from the Operational Guide I posted based on Canadian Owner's Manual:

The system turns on if all of the following occur:

• The ambient light level is low enough.
• Your vehicle speed is greater than approximately 52 km/h (32 mph).

The system turns off if any of the following occur:

• The vehicle speed falls below approximately 30 km/h (19 mph).

So there is a delta between on and off.

I don't think I ever noticed a speed dependency on my ForScan'd glare free adjustment....but that might just be because I don't spend much time below 32mph...

That is exactly the problem that it solves. It dims the part where the other car is, and just that part, plenty early, leaving the shoulders at full high beams. It's really a great feature for those of us who drive rural roads with lots of deer and moose.

Those long straight stretches where you are either following someone and would have to stay on low beams the whole time, or meeting someone that you can see coming 2 miles away and not sure when to dim? Problem solved.

Has anyone else noticed pixels on the right side turning on and off while passing a semi on the highway? I've noticed it several times, but can't exactly complain to the dealer about a feature we're not even supposed to have.
