F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

[Andrewbens]

Thanks I have added to the post 1.
NOTE: This is one of those that it is important to know what you are doing. Livinitup's spreadsheet just says
IPMA 706-01-02 3xxx xxxx xx--
APIM 7D0-02-03 xxxx x8xx xx-- adds Trailer Side View toggle under Driver Assistance

But that is for ICE F-150's. Our trucks have additional/different features. And blindly putting in these values can disable some of those features. I always research the actual spreadsheet and provide Lightning specific values in post 1.

For example changing IPMA 706-01-02 first value from a 0 to a 3 does enable trailer view (MFCTSV Both) and is appropriate for 2022-2023. But 2024's have a 7 there not a 0. This means trailer view is already enabled AND so is CEA Egress Warning. So if you change it from 7 to 3, you disable CEA Egress warning (whatever that is).

Same with APIM. Looking at vehicles, they have a 0,4,8 or C in that position depending on year, trim, ICE or not. 8 or C already has the Sync feature enabled, 0 or 4 do not. But the difference between 0 and 4 is that 4 enables Controls Tab. This is Drive Modes. That why you read some folks loose their Drive Modes selection on the Sync Screen. It's because they changed this value to an 8 instead of an C by blindly following ICE advice.

I have an As-Built database of 40 different vehicles across years, trims, options, and ICE/Lightning. So I can see what a typical value might already be for those trucks and makes the change recommendation appropriately.

Thanks for maintaining your thread! A lot of people are gonna love this!

Global window open/close using keyfob: only works on the front windows because one-touch is not enabled in the back windows.

Just sharing, this is an option in the menu on my 2024 Flash now.

Now we just need to figure out how to keep the power in the bed on while the truck is off just like the Newer 2024 trucks.

Interesting. That may mean there is an APIM change others could make. Could you share a screenshot when you get a chance of the Sync option?

Edit never mind, I realize we are enabling that already - your's is just already enabled. I'll check the As-Builts I have.

This is my Sync screen with no Forscan changes made.

Does anyone know if it is possible to add Speed Sign Recognition for a 24 XLT? I'm not well versed enough yet in ForScan to go digging myself.

Thanks I have added this to post 1. This should not be needed on 2024+ since it appears they already have this enabled.

Can you link me to that please? Im assuming that has info on 2023 Pro trims?

With most of these mods you are changing a single bit. If you show the numbers in binary instead of hex it makes a lot more sense.

FORscan could certainly make this easier but its interface is 20 years old.

If you're referring to Livinup's spreadsheet, it is linked in post 1. It is part of this post on the ICE F-!50 forum.
http://f150gen14.com/forum/threads/2021-f-150-forscan-list-database-spreadsheet.1578/

And he clearly states the info is for ICE F-150's hence my mini-rant above when people blindly use his values for a Lightning or a Mach-E, etc.

Does anyone have trailer side view working?

Yes.

 

[21st Century Truck]

Yes.

I assume that to get this working the Lightning needs at least power folding mirrors, and possibly also a memory capacity in the outside mirrors?

Is there any way to get side mirror video when turn signal activated without towing?

Some have used something like https://a.co/d/0Q1ACqW to fool the truck into thinking you have a trailer. You lose Blue Cruise, cross traffic alerts, etc though. There is also the option of 50/50 views which shows both side cameras but requires you to hit the camera button.

Enable Silent Mode (AKA campground / dark / police mode)
Creates a SYNC toggle to turn on/off Silent Mode. Silent Mode turns off cluster lighting, welcome lighting, courtesy lights, SYNC screen, and silences the horn when locking doors. See this post for more info, pics, and how to enable using easy mode.


Has anyone done this yet on the Lightning successfully? Would love this feature, it would be like generator mode when truck is on and powering a campsite (I think?)

I tested it before I posted and it works. Note this is for when the truck if off and you open doors or lock/unlock it. Like when you need to get something out of your truck at a camp.
" turns off cluster lighting, welcome lighting, courtesy lights, SYNC screen, and silences the horn when locking doors."

I don't believe this is for when the truck is On for ProPower. Maybe it works for that but I didn't test. The Sync screen will probably turn on when you start the truck. When it warms up, I'll test it and update my post.
