F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

Wolfbox G900 Pro. It just attaches over your existing mirror and provides front/rear dash cams. Main downsides I've found are that it blocks the sensor on the oem mirror so the drivers mirror doesn't dim at night and there's some reflection on the mirror. Ordered a mat screen protector but won't be able to use it then as a normal mirror with the screen off.

I have a 23 Pro, which values need to be changed to enable the rain sensing wipers? I dont see them in the first post.

Okay that is what I thought. Looks like a clean install too. I appreciate the feedback on some of the cons you’ve noticed. I’m on the fence about purchasing one.

That mod required hardware changes/additions as well. The hardware and FORScan changes can vary greatly depending on year and trim.

So I purposely don't put in instructions for hardware mods. There are dedicated threads on those mods that include the FORScan changes needed dependent on year/trim.

I wouldn't want XLT/Pro owners thinking they can enable rain sensing, ACC, etc. by simply changing some code.

Remove "Full view not available" message on reverse camera screen while in motion (source)
APIM 7D0-02-02 xxx* xxxx xx--
If your current value is 0 then change to 1, 2 change to 3, 4 change to 5, 6 change to 7. Note: reset APIM after the change

what do you mean by reset APIM? I dont recall having to do that when I enabled my Glare Free lighting?

When it tells you to turn off the power to the truck it's being reset. You will need to open your door for a full reset. Alternatively, you can hold the volume down and skip ahead buttons on your steering wheel until the Sync screen goes blank. This solves a lot of gremlins.

Edit: read post #154 for more context. A ForScan reset may be required.

awesome. I appreciate the clarification. I definitely was power cycling it after each change when that message popped up.

Fix front camera not popping up on screen when front sensor activated (source)
IPMA: 706-16-01 xxx*-xxxx-xxxx
if old value 0-7 then add 8 (hex) to get new value. For example 3=>B. If current value is 8-F, then this is not for you. Applicable to trucks without Park Assist and BC.

I am wondering if anyone can help me with this mod.

If I remember correctly, I had to change this IPMA value to "radar camera fusion 110-degree" or something like that to activate my LKA/ACC addition to my 2024 Lightning Pro (ER, max tow, tow tech, 360 camera... NO park assist and no front parking sensors). This matches the recommended IPMA setting above, but adjusted for my truck's factory AB.

I don't have a toggle to enable the front parking assist. I looked through @Livnitup spreadsheet to try and find a setting in the IPC to enable a toggle, but I haven't been able to find anything that seems to fit the bill. The ICE post linked above doesn't have any info on adding the toggle either.

The source and the setting above imply that I should be able to have the camera pop up without having the small bumper sensors and only using my front camera and (new) CCM radar. The original mod seems to show that the trucks have a front park assist toggle already in the settings menu and the ForScan mod just enabled the camera and radar where I have the opposite, my camera and radar seems to be on the right setting now, but I don't have a toggle to enable it.

Any suggestions on where to look in ForScan and what the description would be on the spreadsheet to enable the front camera park assist toggle? Also, if this is something that can't be enabled on my truck, let me know and I'll save everyone's time. Thank you!

I need to put more instruction on this one I guess. To reset any module, see the second half of post 129, also linked by @BlakeGJ a couple of posts back.

Are you suggesting you need to do a reset after the power cycle? Forgive me for posting bad information if that's correct.

No worries. It seems certain mods are more successful if modules are reset. FORScan has a way to reset a module using the wrench icon menu. I doubt power cycling is the same - in some instances when folks have had SYNC issues, power-cycling didn't work but the steering wheel reset would.

Livnitup's tutorial does indicates a FORScan APIM module reboot and the steering wheel trick are equivalent. But for other modules, there is only FORScan.

I just want to keep the process pure to the original developer. If they say reset a module, they mean use the FORScan wrench menu. It takes less than a minute after you do the write command.

I will add additional instructions to those mods on how to reset.

Enable B&O Beosonic Equalizer (B&O Sound systems only) See this post for info and screenshots. Reported not working on 2024 Flash (post). Please reply to that post if it works for a 24+.
APIM 7D0-01-01 xxx* xxxx xx-- Add 8 to * (mine was "1" so made a "9")
DSP 783-01-01 xx*x xx-- Add 1 to * (mine was "0" so made a "1")

I wonder first of all why this is not enabled by default on a vehicle that has this system? second has anyone done this and does it work? I am especially interested in the equalizer.

Member XENOILPHOBE and I have turned it on in his truck. The sound really is appreciably better. He was still trying to get the visual screen "color wheel" control to work the last time we had touched base. He's got the Platinum with 18 or so speakers.

I appreciate that. I guess I will try to enable it and see if it does anything for me. I think I only have 8 speakers though, but it does have that brand marked on the speakers. Even with the tone only adjustment it does sound pretty good. I would like to tweak that in a little more so just the equalizer working would be OK with me.
