No Forscan was used.
Amber Signal:
The amber turn signal wires were physically run from the BCM. If you've ever installed a stereo system...speakers and an amplifier in the cargo area or trunk of a vehicle, this will be easy, running 2 turn signal leads from the BCM is a cakewalk (see attached C2280D CONNECTOR.pdf and C2280D CONNECTOR2.jpg for connector pinout info)
Tail light Park Lamp flicker:
This was the easiest. No need to remove the tail lights. Simply slide back the cargo area interior side panels to gain access to the rear of the tail lights. On both the right and left tail lights, find the blue with grey stripe park light wire, splice it, install your relay (I used a SSR). You will need a constant, hot at all times, 12v power source for the relay. If you understand what a relay is used for and how to install one to do what you need it to do, this will be easy.
Basically, doing this bypasses the 12v BCM tail light lead, which has a PWM signal that causes flicker in OEM LED park lights on Broncos originally equipped with OEM Halogen. The relay uses the BCM lead as a switch to power on/off your tails like OEM and the tail lights are powered by that clean 12v source.
Attached is everything you will need to figure out what is what.
Sounds like a lot but it really isn't. 2-3 hours. I wish I would have done this months ago!
