ForScan horizontal light to amber mod

[HenryPalmer15]

I’ve been reading on here about changing the horizontal lights up front to amber using ForScan. Can someone link me a tutorial or write one as a reply for people who want to do this but have no idea how. I can’t really find any good tutorials.

OP, there's nothing specific in the Forscan spreadsheet that tells you how to do this. I take it back. Lines 46-47 in the FORScan spreadsheet give you what you need. I'll be doing this today.

This post should be what you need, though: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...l-lights-up-front-to-amber.52070/post-1578734

I haven't tried it yet but may do it at some point. I think I remember reading somewhere on here people thought it wasn't working but it seems they only turn amber once it is placed in Drive and not while in Park.

anyway you could explain how to even get started? I don’t really understand the sheet very well.

The best way to get started is to watch a few YouTube videos and understand the process, then buy an OBD-II interface cable, download FORScan, and get a license.

Connect the adapter cable, open FORScan, then start your truck. Click the connect button, create a new profile, then open the modules menu on the left. Select the correct module, look for the address, edit the fields, then write the new code. Power cycle your truck.

I know I'm making it sound simple, but it's pretty easy. The YouTube videos are key and will take you through a bunch of it, step by step.

Correct, and only when the auto headlights are off and DRLs are on.

only additional bit of advice I would mention is to save the config as original before you change anything so you have the as delivered config before any changes. I do think it is in all the YouTube videos as well. Watch the YouTube videos then come cabs here if you have additional questions.
