Did you do a 'write all"? I'm asking bc for some reason mine always fails on write all and I haven't figured out why. I'm sure I either need to go back a forscan version or something. I'm 1 version behind currently. But I might just be able to write each line individually when I do mine.
I loaded a backup. I can’t recall exactly what the button is labeled but I backed up my original and loaded it and saved it in the new one. The yes I did a write all. Because of the issues you had, I ran through every single function just to make sure it all worked (except the heated steering whee button since I haven’t installed it yet
I was having a failure when writing all. I realized I was running an older version of Forscan. Download the latest version and I bet your problem will go away.
I feel exactly the same way. I feel it makes a huge difference and feels more complete to me.
Feel your brother! I paid 4x current in July. A 75% drop in price still leaves me baffled.
Now....if they could only do that with the entire truck....then we'd be talking
I had to buy a backup at that price. Ford would likely not replace with the same if it dies in a couple years, and by then the price would be who knows.
Tip for those ordering. Tasca vs https://ford.oempartsonline.com/
They use the same backend, but Tasca pays to be higher up on Google search. Tasca charges local use tax and a bit more in shipping (they will send you 5% off shipping if dont complete your order after you enter info). But you can avoid local use tax and get better shipping if you use the second and get an out of state dealer.
So, being as you did not have them before the install and you did an as built download did you need to change anything to get them to work? In another way to ask are all the lines in the HVAC module the same as you had previously? Thanks
Yes, I saved my factory as builts and simply downloaded them into the new one and it works exactly as expected. I have the HSW button but have not yet installed the HSW, so that is one change I’ll be making in the near future.
Ok, great, thanks for the info. I'm familiar with Forscan use but was just surprised that all values remain the same when going to the knobs with readouts from those with no readouts. I guess they have always been enabled even in out trucks without the digital knobs, good to know though!
I went ahead and ordered the control unit from Tasca. Heres to hoping I can get one with the numbers on the dials too for whenever my truck decides to show up. Do you know if that steering wheel part number is the correct one for a 23 platinum with bluecruise? I can't seem to figure out what part number the steering wheel would be for the platinums.Purchased about ten days ago from Tasca for my heated steering wheel
Project when my 22 finally arrives. Was ordering for the heated wheel and was shocked to get it with the led readouts.
Until you have it. Then it's useful.
Want to understand 'Load AB'. Did you have to change anything? Or you just had to re-write same settings with the new unit plugged in? Got mine just haven't installed it yet, thanks!
Back up your current AB (as builts) and then load and write them into the new one after installation. It’s literally that simple
