F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

[21st Century Truck]

Ever since my 1990s BMW days, I liked the "orange snowflake" Frost Warning telltale and turned it on in my 2015 Fusion and in my 2022 Mach E.

Unfortunately, although I turned this telltale's alphanumerics on via Forscan per Livinitup's spreadsheet (IPC), it hasn't worked so far on my 2023 XLT Lightning's IPC.

Does anyone here have the Frost Warning telltale? ...and if so, did You turn it on Yourself? ...and if so, what are the Forscan codes and lines to do it?

Thanks in advance!

I tested my luck with this yesterday and was very successful on my 22 XLT SR. I completed and verified working global window open/close, Enable silent mode, and Remove "Full view not available" message on reverse camera screen while in motion.
I did the Glare-Free headlights and have the settings in sync menu, but have yet to try it at night.
I also enabled the 50/50 view and the button appeared on the screen but no camera view.

Odd. The 2022 XLT has the 360-degree view feature so you should have the cameras in the mirrors.
Can you DM me your vin?

Forscan glare free mod resulted in losing "Sound" from settings menu. see before and after photos..... any ideas? thanks....

 

[bmwhitetx]

Start with APIM. Triple check the APIM changes you made. Restore to original values and confirm sound is back. Then re-apply one at a time.

If not APIM, do the same for the other modules.

Also, let me know what your original values were for those parameters or DM me your VIN:
APIM 7D0-09-01 x?xx xxxx xx--
APIM 7D0-09-03 xx?x xxxx xx--

@alanack i think I saw this as well and it made me take a double take…but as soon as I played a sound source, the sound menu was lit up again and worked fine. Maybe for you too?

 

[Henry Ford]

I modified the first post to indicate Beosonic may only work for Platinums with B&O Unleashed. I also did not notice any difference in sound on my Lariat.

I have a '22 Platinum and couldn't even get the Beosonic circle to appear. I'll try again at some point.

Hi Scot, welcome to the $#!@ show that the 24's are. Officially they were not supposed to have the front sensors, but Ford did not remove it from the window stickers or the marketing. Take it to the dealer, show they a copy of the original window sticker (don't give them the original!!!) and demand they install the sensors. There are a bunch of us pushing and I am going to start withing with an attorney soon. They need to make right on this. Also check the tailgate. It is supposed to be assist (slow lower). The dealer did install the fix for that. It is also supposed to have the speed limit recognition and display on dash. That I just fixed myself with ForScan. See below.

Enable Speed Limit Recognition

IPC 720-03-02 xxCx-xxxx enables TSR (traffic sign recognition)
IPC 720-09-01 xxxx-xxxx-9xxx enables SLIF
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-x5xx-xxxx enables TSR NCAP Adaptions
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-xxxx-xDxx enables TSR
IPMA 706-01-01 xx4x-xxxx-xxxx enables SLIF feature
IPMA 706-02-01 6xxx-xxx-xxxx sets TSR mode (6= fusion of camera and navigation, 4 is camera only)

Window sticker says I should have "Forward Sensing System" i.e. proximity sensors on front bumper. My last discussion regarding this problem was moved to another thread. I've broken out the old windows lap top, loaded up FORScan, bought a dongle and am ready to ruin my new truck. Can you tell me if I'm approaching this correctly.

First the wiring diagram shows all proximity sensors front, and rear all go to the IPMA module, so I looked over livinitup's spreadsheet dated this year and found the bottom tab for IPMA 2024. I started down looking for anything with the text "Cnfg_PA" thinking this would be all parameters associated with Parking Assist. It was basically all in 706-02-01. Still pretty opaque, but I compared it to my As-Built Data to see if I could make some sense of it. I came away pretty confused. I guess I'm looking for a methodical approach to discover how to recognize the sensors and enable the features and I feel more like I'm about to become a monkey banging on a typewriter. I feel pretty confident I could perform the actions others have discovered, but I think this may be virgin territory (adding front sensors). I did read the thread of the fellow who added radar, etc, so I'll go re read that. Can someone point me in the right direction.

 

[EdNewman]

It was supposed to be active from the factory, but apparently Ford screwed it up. You can go to the dealer and ask them to activate it. Tell them to reference the order guide which shows it on Pro and up. If you have forscan, here is the easy fix to implement yourself.

Enable Speed Limit Recognition

IPC 720-03-02 xxCx-xxxx enables TSR (traffic sign recognition)
IPC 720-09-01 xxxx-xxxx-9xxx enables SLIF
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-x5xx-xxxx enables TSR NCAP Adaptions
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-xxxx-xDxx enables TSR
IPMA 706-01-01 xx4x-xxxx-xxxx enables SLIF feature
IPMA 706-02-01 6xxx-xxx-xxxx sets TSR mode (6= fusion of camera and navigation, 4 is camera only)

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.

 

[bmwhitetx]

That I just fixed myself with ForScan. See below.
Enable Speed Limit Recognition
IPC 720-03-02 xxCx-xxxx enables TSR (traffic sign recognition)
IPC 720-09-01 xxxx-xxxx-9xxx enables SLIF

APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-xxxx-xDxx enables TSR
IPMA 706-01-01 xx4x-xxxx-xxxx enables SLIF feature
IPMA 706-02-01 6xxx-xxx-xxxx sets TSR mode (6= fusion of camera and navigation, 4 is camera only)

I checked your values with my database. For each year and trim of Lightning I have 2-4 As-Built values from real trucks. I wanted to see if 2024's have different settings than the earlier years that have Sign Recognition. In general, looks like for all years, values are the same (except 706-02-01)

My notes on your values in italics:
IPC 720-03-02 xxCx-xxxx All years and trims have a "4" here
IPC 720-09-01 xxxx-xxxx-9xxx All years - Pro and XLT 311A have 1, all others have 9
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-x5xx-xxxx enables All years - Pro and XLT 311A have 4 all others have 7
APIM 7D0-09-02 xxxx-xxxx-xDxx All years - Pro and XLT 311A have 5 all others have D
IPMA 706-01-01 xx4x-xxxx-xxxx All years - Pro and XLT 311A have 0 all others have 5
IPMA 706-02-01 6xxx-xxx-xxxx 2022,2023 - Pro and XLT 311A have 3 all others have 7
2024 - Pro and XLT 311A have 2 all others have 6

Hopefully you consulted Livnitup's Lightning spreadsheet and toggled the right bit. Compared to 50 other Lightnings I've looked at, three of your values are unique.

I can send you my data if you want.

Yes, I worked off the spreadsheet and google to figure these out... 2024 Dec build XLT 311A. I think what we are seeing and it is going to make things challenging is a more complex scheme of setting features. Instead of a binary 0/1 per feature, it is now a combination where multiple features are lumped together in a single setting. I personally think this makes the software more complex rather than easier, but obviously someone at Ford feels the other way. Here is the data I used for my changes as well as my as built info...

And again worth nothing that this feature was supposed to come enabled from the factory per the 2024 order guide, but it seems like it is just another on on the list of things that Ford screwed up on these trucks with the 2024 model year.

720-03-02 - Enable Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) seemed logical, maybe not necessary?
As built C8(4)D 296A - change 4 to C
4 = TSR disabled • TS enabled • TBS disabled • TSP disabled

It is indeed a binary way of thinking of things. Each of the characters can be 0-F hex which is 1111 binary. Each bit is an on/off option. So if you want to enable the first bit which is TSR then you add 8 to your existing value. Of the 16 possible values, half will have the feature enabled and half won't. So you need to see what your current value is and choose the value that just changes it and not the others

This is my mini-rant when folks say just change to a particular value. You can't do that when the parameter controls 3 others options as well. I know many folks who enabled BC 1.4 with FORScan who lost a different Sync setting because they used the code for an ICE F150. Others have mistakenly deleted one-pedal.

I will try and check your specific settings, now that I know the parameter you have identified if you want me to. I feel like a few of them may be wrong (or at least different than every other Lightning).

True on a computer binary as compared to each feature having a single bit on or off.

higher trims seem to already have this active and this mod would apply to 2024 pro and XLTs which should have had it enabled at the factory but did not.

You are more than welcome to tweak my recommendation into a cleaner format that will be better for other people to implement.

Ok, so I went through your settings and your logic is sound. You do end up with some unicorn values. I am curious about it being a 2024 only problem. In looking at the As-Builts of 22-23's, it would seem that all 22-23 Pros and XLT w/o ACC would also not see the speed limit display on their dash. The values you enabled for your 24 are also disabled for the 22-23's.

So if true, this could also help 22-23 trucks that don't have ACC see speed limits.

Here is my additional analysis. If you're game you might change the first IPC back to original 4 to verify if it's needed. Maybe the second IPC also.


=============================== my notes in red
IPC
720-03-02 - Enable Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) seemed logical, maybe not necessary?
As built C8(4)D 296A - change 4 to C
4 = TSR disabled • TS enabled • TBS disabled • TSP disabled
C = TSR enabled • TS enabled • TBS disabled • TSP disabled
Since all 22-24 Lightnings have a "4", I agree this change may not be needed.

720-09-01 Enable SLIF - again, maybe not necessary?
As Built 6062-1554-(1)975
1 = SLIF disabled • HUDC No_HUD • FCWARTTC ON
9 = SLIF enabled • HUDC No_HUD • FCWARTTC ON
SLIF= "speed limit information functions", matches trims with ACC so likely needed unless it's just used for the ACC part. So could change it back to As-Built and see what happens. Same for all 22-24.

APIM
7D0-09-02 - Traction Control/IVD/RSC (TCIVDRSC) • Adaptive Cruise (AC) • TSR NCAP Adaptations (TSRNCAPA) - This enabled the TSR, trucks with Adaptive cruise would probably be different

4 = TCIVDRSC TC • AC Disabled • TSRNCAPA Disabled
5 = TCIVDRSC TC • AC Disabled • TSRNCAPA Enabled
7 = TCIVDRSC TC • AC Enabled • TSRNCAPA Enabled
22-24's with IACC have a 7.
22-24's w/o IACC have a 4.
Like you show, 5 would enable TSR but keep AC disabled.

Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) • TPMS By Location (TPMSBL) • TPMS Placard Pressure Display (TPMSPPD) • Centerstack Settings (CS)
As Built C065-5400-0(5)60
5 = TSR Disabled • TPMSBL Enabled • TPMSPPD Disabled • CS Enabled
D = TSR Enabled • TPMSBL Enabled • TPMSPPD Disabled • CS Enabled
Matches 22-24 as-builts with and without ACC

IPMA
706-01-01
ModuleFeatureCfg_TSR (MFCTSR) • ModuleFeatureCfg_IACC (MFCIACC)
As Built 0E(0)0-8055-8E80
0 = MFCTSR Off • MFCIACC Disabled
4 = MFCTSR SLIF • MFCIACC Disabled
5 = MFCTSR SLIF • MFCIACC Enabled
22-24's with IACC have a 5.
22-24's w/o IACC have a 0.
Like you show, 4 would enable TSR SLIF but keep AC disabled.

Trailer Side View - shows corresponding camera view alongside of vehicle when turn signal is applied with trailer connected. See here for details. Note: requires newest 12/23 IPMA update.

Your note above - How would I determine if I have "newest 12/23 IPMA update ? I've got a 2022 LER & 2023 LER.
