No Modules showing in ForScan

[itsjeffreyab]

This is my second time working in ForScan. The first time went smooth and everything worked as it should.

This time though, none of the modules except for PCM are showing. I tried clearing the DTC's to see if that help but no luck there. I have a valid license for ForScan, so no issues there either.

Below is a screenshot of as far as it gets. I let it sit for 5 minutes and took a screenshot.

Can someone help me?

When it connected , did it say it found an existing profile or something? I always say no and let it scan new each time

Yes, I clicked "Yes" since I've done it before. I did download a new version of ForScan so I'll try clicking "No" next time.

Good idea!

I had that problem after I updated to a new version of FORscan, so I switched back to the older version and it worked again

Do you have the adapter that has the MS/HS switch?

So I tried removing the existing profile and creating another, in V2.3.65 and V2.3.49. Again, just the PCM was showing. The issue persists.

Unfortunately, I tried going back to V2.3.49 from V2.3.65 and that did not work.

Try it again with the Bronco running

I just did, battery was at 15v and still not working. I am using the OBDLink EX. Maybe that could be the issue. It worked great a few months ago though.

Last thing I can think of is removing and reinstalling the driver for your adapter

there is another bit setting I had to change the last time I used mine that fixed this issue, trying to remember and I have the good adapter.

Edit: I think it was the Forscan Connection MS-CAN support setting to RTS relay.

I tired that too and the drivers installed correctly. I'm running a M1 Mac so had to use the ARM drivers. https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/

Thank you!

It does not, It's the OBDLink EX from Amazon.

you need the adapter that has the ability to switch speeds. The rest of the modules need to run HS. I have to start in MS mode then after it reads the PCM it requires you to switch the manual switch on the cable to HS so it can read the rest of the modules.

That's only necessary with certain adapters. OBDLink EX is not one of them.
