I think I might have been able to get another APIM update if the gateway test went through, but my license runs out in 90 minutes and I’m at least happy with how far I got.

4 fan flyer, in the “old days” (before last week) before the $120 subscription went into effect, you got the license for two full days until midnight, so for example if you bought it at 1100 on Monday, you got it for ~61 hrs until Weds evening at midnight. Your post makes it sound like it is for exactly 48 hrs. Can you confirm how the “2 day clock” works now?

I have no idea how the clock works now, sorry, I was assuming it was for exactly 48hrs, and unfortunately I have to work this evening so I’m unable to see if it still works.

Good afternoon all. I’d like to rent one of the mongoose units so I can update my truck. If you could add me to the list I’d appreciate it. Thank you

I would like to rent a cable if anyone has one available.

I have one readily available. I don't rent it; I loan it. I require a $500 deposit which I refund entirely minus my cost to ship it once you return it. Message me and we can set it up.

Edit: Just saw your message after I posted this.

@rugedraw can you please add me to your loaner list again. I need to update a family members truck.

Thanks!

This is awesome guys. Hadn't seen anything like this even though y'all have been doing it for years. Was looking for something like this because my wife is about to buy a 2026 explorer that doesn't have door keypad and she'll want me to add it. Doesn't look like it can be completely activated with forscan. I'll be back!

You used to be able to do it with forscan and maybe still can.....not sure. These newer vehicles with TRON and the newer version of FDRS that requires dealer logins to do anything with the BCM may prevent you from doing it. I'm not sure, tbh. Someone would have to try to see if FDRSB allows you to do it with a non dealer login.

Interesting. Thank you for the info. I've literally never even thought of using FDRS until this because everything I wanted to do on my 23 f150 I could do with forscan.
