Forscan and 2023 models?

[meffie]

Anyone know when Forscan will be updated for 23 year models? Picked up my WildTrak today and hooked up soon as I got home to disable double honk and do the rear speakers, but Forscan was unable to detect the Bronco. :/

How's the 7 speaker sound so far? Does it need the speaker update.

Sounds like the 6 with some crappy bass, lol. I mean it "rounds" it out a bit, but there is no power going to the sub, and it has a very limited range.

But it is better for what it's worth

I have been able to do a several things on my 23 Wildtrak (double honk disable, seat belt minder off, door ajar chime disable, key-in ignition chime off, amber DRLs, 2 click panic button). However, auto start-stop disable didn't work.

ETA: I have a Superchips Flashcal that doesn't recognize my 23. Hopefully Superchips will provide an update soon...

Roger that.

How did you manage? Did you do it through Forscan? I updated to the latest version, but it still wouldn't connect to the bronco.

Did you do anything different to get it to read?

Haven't picked up my 23 yet, but when I download Forscan on new laptop, it couldn't see our 21 Bronco. Realized it defaulted to demo. Make sure Demo is unselected.

I've used it on my 22 without issue, so can't imagine thats the issue, but I will check it

I used an old ELM adapter that I used on my 2014 F150. At first it wouldn't recognize the Bronco, so I updated the driver on the adapter and it started working.

hrm, well unfortunately I only have the 1 adapter, not sure if I wanna buy another just to try. Guess I could use amazon and then return if it doesn't work, lol. There are no drivers for my adapter, it's completely plug and play, so that route is moot.

I'll give it another try this weekend and see what happens. If nothing else, I cannot handle the double honk. I've resorted to not closing my door all the way so it doesn't get me, lol

ALL devices, including "Plug and Play", use drivers. Plug and play just means it's supposed to automatically install the driver when you plug it into your computer. Google how to update drivers in windows. I think you right click, go to properties, and find the tab with update driver. You'll need an internet connection. Might help your issue.

I thought I saw if you email Forscan he has an update for 23s? I haven't tried to connect on mine yet.

Which engine and trans do you have? I tried that version and it did not recognize my 2023 2.3 with manual trans.

i have 2.7 auto, but i am curious if other people got it to work or just me…reason is when i emailed to get the beta i also gave them my vin, so im wondering if this beta software is really supposed to recognize all 23s or if they are manually adding vins in their database to get it to work

if noone else got it to work then you might need to email forscan with your vin
