FORScan guru help needed

[steveoeg6]

Hello to all of you helpful folks out there!

So here is my situation: I have a 2021 PB supercrew on which I did an early quad LED to Projector LED swap about a year and a half ago. During this swap I made a number of changes to my as built in FORScan. These changes went great and everything worked well. Which leads me to my problem now. Unfortunately I need to sell the truck and swap back to the original quad LED headlights. The original as built data that I saved unfortunately was lost when the laptop I used died.

The ask: I know there are a few folks on this forum that can retrieve the as built data using my VIN so that I may use forscan to get my truck back to factory. I have been off these forums for some time now, and unfortunately don't know the folks of whom I can reach out to.

If anyone can give me a hand I would be very grateful! Thanks to all whom read this for helping to point me in the right direction!

Steve

Your asbuilt data as it sits on ford's servers is what's on your truck. Use autotrader to find a similar truck, grab its vin, get the asbuilt data, and revert.

Just sell it as-is. Why revert it? You're likely to put more effort into reverting it than the parts are worth used.

I may be a bit out of the loop... In what way would I retrieve that data with any vin? I feel like I am missing something. I appreciate your patience

Is that using the FDRS in the sticky threads? That wasn't a thing when I first got on here

Go look up a truck online like yours on a dealer lot.

Put VIN into Motorcraft service website and you can see the asbuilt.

That should give you what you need to change back to stock.

I do agree with above it is lot of work for not much benefit but go for it.

you guys aren't wrong g about changing it out, but one of the ones I put in had a broken housing and it obvious...

and thanks for the info guys, I did not know this was a thing.

 

[fordtruckman2003]

Well, if you pull off a full kit you can probably sell it on here to someone that doesn't mind a broken housing.

Update: I was able to get everything reverted back to stock hardware wise, and after a bit of work was able to get everything working using the trick you guys outlined, except the high beams…

All other lighting functions are working except the highs. I am presently getting the errors:

B14E7 08 0A and B14E5 08 0A bus signal/message failure. I tried doing the BCM LIN initialization with mongoose, but no luck. Anyone infinitely smarter than me have any ideas the fix for this?
