I changed form 8 to B and do not have the issue with speed limit signs.

I just added mine yesterday. Used the "B" and noticed this morning that I now have the Euro style Speed Limit on the right screen. Guess I'll try changing it to a "2".

This worked beautifully thank you! More dumb questions, I have enabled global closing on my windows but what button on the remote do I have to press to activate it and actually close all the windows?

How do I enable Tire pressure monitoring? I’ve checked YouTube and but I don’t see 720-04-01 in the IPC as built, what am I missing?
And are there any more cool additions I should look to add in forscan?

If you go to forscan forums they have spreadsheets for different vehicles. You may have to do trial and error. Just make sure you backup your modules incase you have to restore. The available modules are based on the year of your car. If one isn't available the option may not be available or it maybe in another module.

I believe you hold the lock button

I do not think you can add tire pressure. As subETCS ret said there is some trial an error unless you have the info for the specific vehicle you are working on. Other Fords may not correspond to the Taurus. Some things are firmware related like the 2013s have climate on the right screen and 2016+ have a digital speedo on the left screen however you cannot add these to other years regardless of as-built changes because it is not available due to firmware changes.

I don't believe you can global close your windows on the SHO even if you enable it in Forscan. I know on the MKS you can.

Yea, after scouring through the forums and doing keyword searches I was able to figure out tire pressure is not available for my 14 SHO, and global closing doesn’t work either. Adding the nav in motion seems to have made my nav system unstable, it froze/restarted twice on the ride in this morning. I read somewhere the country code has to be something different than US for nav in motion to work? IDK I will change it back and see if it still does it.

Isn't that just crazy?! You can add Global Open and I use it all the time, but then you can't close them, WTF?? And why isn't tire pressure monitoring just standard anyway on a SHO? I've owned much lesser vehicles that had the tire pressures on the dashboard. Oh well I guess.

My notes from F150s say: line 7D0-02-01 should have 5553(for US market) changed to 5753 for nav in motion. This disables Sirius Travel Link in SYNC2 and disables 911 assist in SYNC3. I have not tried this.

I have heard this is a liability issue in case some kid has there head in the window when it closes. I agree on tire pressure, the info is there.

Can confirm this, nav in motion disables 911 assist. I’m going to restore it because that auto 911 call in the worse case scenario is a nice feature.

Best FORScan mods for the Taurus (in my opinion):
Audio EQ presets
Change tap-blink
AWD gauge
DRLs
Add Nav (requires more than just FORScan)

What are the audio we presets?
I have no clue how to do the nav in instrument cluster, looks too complicated. Is there a way to update MyFord touch? According to the MFT Website mine was last done in 14, and never confirmed on the computer that updated it. I see the current version is 3.8, is there a way to upgrade mine to that? Or will I brick the system if I try?

The audio EQ presets enables 'Rock', 'Pop', 'Classical', etc presets in the Sync settings.

From my logs:
APIM EQ presets - 7D0-01-02 xxxx x8xx xxxx

I personally found the 'Pop' setting had the best bass-boost for me.


As always, remember to back things up before making changes.

Never knew that. But interesting because all of my Audi's have the Global Close and even one of my Audi's would automatically shut the windows and sunroof if it detected rain - I guess it used the rain sensor from windshield...??

Hi, just curious if you’ve checked/looked at your led bulbs flashing for a while to see if they are consistently flashing correctly.

I changed 726-13-01 to all zeros but -14- was already all zeros. The hyperflash goes away but the bulbs do not flash normally, consistently. They will flash fine a couple times and then they’ll kind of flicker. Occasionally the right side will actually change from amber to white mid-flash if my parking lights are on.

I don’t expect you to check yours now but if you do, make sure the vehicle is running and in drive. In drive is when mine have the most issues.

I haven't had any issues but I didn't buy dual led bulbs. I just use amber.
