I don't usually get answers there so I don't bother.

Disables three "doo-doo-doo" start-up chimes from cluster IPC 720-01-02 xxxx x2xx

If you can, please make sure things like this are added to the wiki post that is linked in post #1 of this thread (once verified at least).

Thanks,
Chance

Doesn't a moderator do that?

No, I've been keeping it up to date (along with a few others), it's a wiki post so anyone can update it. I just want to make sure everyone is aware so that everything is accounted for without going through 100's of posts later on.

Ok

Okay so in order to disable the IPC blue sky screen do i change the 8th character to a 4?
720-03-02 (2013+ MY) xxxX xxxx 4

 

[t4thfavor]

No, it seems I would change the character at the position of the capital X to a 4. So in your case E85X-0173 I would change the E to a 4 where I have the X.

Anyone see a Forscan mod to increase the time before Auto Start/Stop activates? It’s useful to me, but way too aggressive. I need it to be 3-5 seconds longer.

Bump. This feature is starting to annoy me. It kills the engine so quickly that it’s doing it at 4-way stop intersections; completely unnecessary and far too aggressive.

Livernois Tuning advertises that their tuner provides the option of disabling it. I know that doesn’t answer your question but just thought I’d point that out.

I've learned to manage the Auto Start Stop by applying very light pressure to the brake pedal, or dropping into sport mode for a second when I don't want it to activate. Worst case, just hit the disable button when you're not driving where the feature will be beneficial.

Forscan Modification- Disable auto start/stop
726-48-02 x1xx-xxxx-xxxx
1=on, Set to 0=off (disabled)
This perminately disables the auto start stop. The button and dash indicator will still illuminate/function but they no longer do anything.
I verified. Posted in the Forscan Wiki. Someone else willing to verify?

I’ll give it a try.

Awesome thread guys!

Does anyone know how to turn the following off:

Door chime - when car is running and you open the door
Shift stick chime - when car is running, not in park and you open the door

Yes, there is a forscan wiki thread in the first post of this thread. That will have the specific codes you need to enable/disable for those things. The specifics on exactly how to accomplish are basically out of the scope of this thread. Thad said Forscan has a a wiki, a howto, and a forum with loads of information.

lol... I was waiting for someone to ask. Hold the channel scan right arrow on the steering wheel and the channel scan right button on the center stack at the same time for a few seconds. You'll hear the speaker test start if successful. Test menu is where you can switch between themes.

EDIT: also for those changing their antennae to shortys, you can see how much your signal drops off after the switch using the hidden menus.

Hmmm, I'm missing something. I don't have a channel scan button on my steering wheel.

Forscan is next on my list of things to experiment with.
