FORScan Bronco Working Spreadsheet (double honk, sport mode, chimes, seatbelts, and more!)

[B22-2023]

It hasn't been done on a Raptor? I've seen references to it.

Sorry I misread.

I noticed today that the USB C and USB A ports (25') below the dash turn off about a minute after the car turns off but the 2 USB C ports and lighter ports in the center console seem to never turn off (I checked after an hour and my dash camera was still on).

Which power ports does the PowerPoint config change exactly?

I have not been able to turn the seatbelt minder chime off for the 2025 Bronco. The IPC module has changed from the 2023s. Anyone had success with this?

Has anyone been able to figure out how to do this on the 2025s yet?

Is something wrong with latest versions of Forscan? I downloaded Forscan today, got a 2 month free license, connected my previously working "OBDLinkEX" USB adapter to my 2023 Bronco, adapter goes from yellow to green led when connected to the Bronco ... but Forscan will not see the Bronco.

I've gone through the troubleshooting tutorials, updated the adapter drivers, the adapter firmware, tried various recommended troubleshooting settings. No dice.

Previously having used Forscan two years ago, I would have poo pooed anyone having trouble, because I had no issues then. But now I think Forscan is not ready for prime time.

n/m, I got it working

Forscan seems like such a great tool, but it sort of intimates me. Seeing the heated steering wheel temp tho makes me not feel crazy. I swear it’s a light slapping of heat

I FINALLY got around to getting some Forscan mods done 2 days ago. I will be scheduling an appointment with a head doctor to get to the bottom of why I procrastinated so long. I did a mix of the usual (double honk, seat belt minder, ESE off, etc.).

Wanted to speak to the 'turn signal volume down' mod as some were saying they could hardly tell the difference. At least for my situation it is almost too much of a lowering of the volume of the blinker, wish there was something in between. Will not be going back however as I would rather have it too low then the annoying loudness it was before.

I used to own a 2015 F-150 and was a member of the F-160 13G Forum. SO many mods discovered there! SO disappointed in the amount of R&D info the possibilities of ForScan for the Bronco 6G here. I’m a retired sweaty carpenter so tech ain’t my forte but I can follow the directions of an IT servant…

Like you I came from the F-150 / Forscan world. I think the issue with 6G Bronco is that so much of the F-150 research ported right over, and that’s all the most desirable and low hanging fruit. People here seem to have played around quite a bit to find more specific Bronco mods, but there have not been a lot of breakthroughs. We sure do find out what possible FS mods get deleted though in new model years.

What we need is LivinItUp to buy a freaking 6G Bronco.

Hopefully you can get it to work.

Didn’t work for me on the 2025 - the seatbelt warning light never went off.

I was able to get to work on a 2025. The light never goes off but you will hear the notification of no seat belts sound and just click and unclick like the instructions suggest after the sound.

Driving into a camp ground a couple of weeks ago the nav showed no map information but up popped a Compass. The compass goes away as soon as I am on mapped roads.
Anyone know of a way to turn on the compass (big, not the little one that says N,S, E,W) via sync4 or Forscan? My wife's Telluride has a compass you can select anytime you want on one of the side screens.

I am not 100% sure but with Auto Bread Crumbs off I think the compass stays on the screen.

Any playing I’ve done has resulted in no additional gains outside of the spreadsheet, unfortunately. (Not that I’m an expert in ANY capacity) I’ve gone through different modules of the F-150 to compare against the bronco, but it seems the 2022+ F-150 with the latest (at the time) capabilities wasn’t compatible with the bronco modules. Would be interesting to see what matches between 16-20 F-150’s vs 6G Bronco.

Can anybody shed light on how to turn off the engine idle limit?

23 Raptor. Everything I tried to do didn’t seem to work. The double honk actually took away my performance mode view. I took screenshots prior to changing. After changing and testing I went back and looked and other characters in the same line also changed. Tried again and again I watched it change during the write process. I changed it all back. Luckily I took screenshots. I tried double honk, seatbelts, and auto stop. Didn’t test the auto stop but. Seatbelts still popped up. The only thing I have successfully changed was the audio pods and EQ. Kinda sketchy to be honest lol. I do a lot of similar programming for security and automation so it’s not that it’s hard, but something is off.
