Active HD Radio using ForScan?

[nhbill]

I tried to use an ML3T-18K10-FEE in a 2023 F250 XLT and Sirius is prompting me to accept the trial terms every time I select Sirius and it brings me to the preview channel. My rear parking sensors also seem to be intermittently not functioning correctly as well. (Sometimes beeping with nothing remotely close and not always indicating when things are close. I’m not sure if I should just give up or look for an ACM from a 2023 Super Duty.

My presets were also not functioning until I changed to mixed mode as mentioned earlier in this thread. I think the mixed mode presets are clunky enough that I might prefer an aftermarket solution anyway. Did anyone get it working with Keeping FM and Sirius presets separated?

The trial message is a pain if using Sirius' 2 or 3 month trial. I had the same issue until subscribed. I never had the issue with rear parking sensors so unfamiliar with that issue. There are some screenshots posted in some earlier post, did you try to mirror those?

I have a 2023 PB and used my Sirius trial and declined it after the period because Wife have it All my local HD stations was setup during trial period After the trial the HD stations remained and play HD radio but ask me to join if I press a Sirius preset. My FM preset by Ford doesn’t play HD radio.?

Finally I bought an FDK ACM from 2023 Lariat for $150.

Are these settings still good to enable HD radio?

ACM: 727-01-01
X0XX-XXXX-XXXX
Leave the rest the same and make that a 0

APIM: 7D0-01-01
XX8X-XXXX-XXXX
Leave the rest the same and make that an 8

Yup. Make a backup of both your original and the FDK ACM's. Next overwrite the FDK ACM with your original ACM configuration (if there is an error saying there are additional values just select continue). Next make the changes above and you should be all set. I had a few DTC's initially, but they disappeared on their own after a week or so.

Thanks for the information. After your DTCs cleared did your BLIS and reverse sensing chimes go back to normal or are they still muted?

It's hit or miss. Sometimes they sound normal and others they are still muted. Certainly not ideal, but I've adapted to it over time.

I think the muted chimes is related to that blue usb digital audio connector that Jesse-Infotainment mentioned early on. I wonder if usb digital audio could be disabled with a Forscan change. @Jesse-Infotainment do you know if this is possible?

I installed the FDK ACM using the settings below and it doesn’t work. It tunes into HD radio stations but there is no sound coming from the speakers and the volume level is stuck at 6. It also is very laggy.

I reinstalled my original ACM and everything works as normal.

ACM: 727-01-01
X0XX-XXXX-XXXX
Leave the rest the same and make that a 0
I actually didn’t change anything on the FDK ACM because the 2nd digit is already 0.

APIM: 7D0-01-01
XX8X-XXXX-XXXX
Leave the rest the same and make that an 8
I did change the 3rd digit to 8

Did you load your factory ACM values into the FDK ACM first?

Reading comprehension is not my strong skill

I just loaded the factory ACM values into the new FDK ACM and then changed the values again. Now everything works normally. I get HD stations strongly.

The chimes do go thru the speakers but the volume is slightly lower than with the original factory ACM. Not sure if I can increase the volume of the chimes though.

Thanks for your help!

I keep getting DTC U0554-00 (Invalid Data Received from APIM). I assume this has to do with the A2B USB connector not being used?

I don't think so as that wasn't one of the DTC's that I had before they disappeared. Is it an active DTC?

yes it is. It only happens with the new ACM.

Also the ACM is from a Canadian truck so I not sure is another possible cause
