So I messed around with Forscan for the first time last night and it's pretty cool. I used the f150forum
link to change a few things including adding navigation and removing the shift light. I plan on doing more things but the 0 degree weather makes it suck to sit in my car while it's not running. I would like to add the reverse camera once we can figure out what parts are needed and I want to get rid of the annoying door/seat belt chimes but I can't with my current reader situation...
The OBD2 port reader I have is the Launchh Mini ELM327 that I got for $12 shipped on ebay (
link) and it works, but I am not able to see all the modules. I need to access the BCM and IPC modules for the light and chime changes I want to make but they just don't show up with this reader. I may do the switch mod from a few posts above or I might just have to bite the bullet and get a better reader.
For anyone having trouble with navigation, I bought a card off ebay for $35 and followed the f150forum google doc instructions (
link). I already had sync 3.8 installed, so I downloaded the navipatch file and went on my way but when it was done and should have worked, it didn't. Turns out I had to download and install the navigation update even though I had sync 3.8 already. Once I ran that update, it read the card and my car now has working nav.
If anyone has questions feel free to ask or shoot me a PM and I'd be glad to help out
