Soooo - I know there is a very informative post on the Forescan stuff....This is specifically about the ODMLink MX product. What do I do now with it besides plug it in? do I need the ODM software on my phone? Or can I just download and use Forescan? help would be awesome.
ok - you dont need the software on your phone - you dont need your phone at all. you need - 1 - OBDlink MX 2 - windows laptop 3 - a login and password to FORScan forum - this may take up to 24 hours 4 - once logged into FORScan you need to request an extended licence to make any changes in the trucks code 5 - you need to download Forscan software onto laptop 6 - you need to plug in your OBDlink to truck 7 - you need to bluetooth OBD link to laptop 8 - run software 9 - make a BACKUP before you do anything 10 - pick the module you want to change - like ACM (audio control module) 11 - refer to the spread sheet and find the line number for the Mod you want 12 - change the code and SAVE the code
VT Raptor you are the man! Appreciate the step-by-step!! I owe you a beer should you ever make it down to Fairfield County.
And the double honk. I stop at the end of our road to get mail..about the time I get to front of truck, the double honk. Scares the crap out of me every time!!
I havent made that change yet. (double honk) but man does that piss me off. I'll add it to the list of things I do on the next programming session.
ya i think thay scares everybody. gas station everywhere that fucking double honk gets me. whoever invented that or thought that was a good idea doesnt live in the real world
But if it didn't have the double honk people would walk away wth the key, get the truck stolen, and then blame Ford for letting that happen. Just saying.
Ha! Last week I had an old man renting movies from a RedBox. I parked in front of the box to go in for a can of Cope, left the truck running and the double honk made the fella jumped where he cussed and asked me to turn it off. I laughed, apologized, and thought of you knuckle heads out there doing it on purpose to scare the living shit outta everyone. From RedBox!
