Anybody added a third key fob using the PATS function in FDRS? Is it pretty easy?

Don’t think it’s possible unless you’re a dealer or locksmith. If you have two keys you can without it easy but in fdrs it will ask for credentials

Okay well I'll just try the owner's manual procedure for the third key then.

Thanks.

I haven't encountered the problem, but if someone has a bricked BCM from Ford's bad BCM Battery Configuration update, do you think reverting back to to these .vbf files with ForScan can bring it back from the dead?

For reference, this is my PowerBoost's current known-good configuration.

FORScan 2.4.7

We are passed this. We got it

I'm starting to think we are being punished not getting the updates that the Lightning is getting because we all love to tinker with our trucks and Ford caught us....

My coworker has a Lightning, I don't know if I want all the updates he got recently. One created several issues with the APIM and he lost most controls for a day until the next update fixed things. I'm fine with the Lightning & Mach-E being the guinea pigs before they roll them out to the F-150. We've already seen they can screw things up with the BCM, we don't need any more problems.

Would someone be able to check my vin for me? 1FTFW1E56MFA48057

I had x2 - 12 hour trips (straight) and I got my third over OTA on the second one (updated from 2.6.0 to 2.7.1). It goes into the dealer Thursday.

With the help of Jesse, my friends at the dealership successfully force updated my '21 job-1 Limited to gain blue cruise and everything else.

@Jesse-Infotainment gave me a specific order of updates to do and the tech followed them to a T.

The tech said that was the fastest he's ever successfully updated any of the newer vehicles and applauded Jesse's info.

Now that my Mongoose adapter showed up today as well I'll still get it all set up and tinker with it.

Thanks again Jesse.

No problem. Glad you’re all set

Could someone check my VIN for updates please. I am planning to update the truck on the weekend and would like to know what is coming up ahead of time.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I guess I need to have my VIN on here.... In my defense... I am not being supervised right now. LOL

Great story and thanks for sharing.

In a previous era there would be many such posts. If one fella offered advice to another on overcoming a challenge, it would be welcomed and appreciated!

But these days? So many folks are afraid to even admit that they could use some help. Humility is rare.

Here's today's list:

I don't know if the BCM is safe to update yet....haven't heard one way or the other.

It's been declared "fixed"

Still would give me the heebyjeeby's clicking that download button though in the driveway.
