Now for the 3000 mile update....
This is still the simplest and bust addition I think you can do for the Ranger. I have been running the "sport" configuration of the GFB DV+ for the entire time now and I am averaging just slightly better gas mileage than before. Not something incredibly...
The DTE calculation on my Ranger I know is off by about 10 miles according to the diagnostics screens. the Instant calculation is 354 and the displayed value is 345.
I notice that the DTE calculation varies from around 13 to 8 miles when I have dug into the diagnostics screens.
As for the fuel...
Is this a programmer DDM? Do we need to do forScan changes to get this to work?
Can we enable and disable through the menus?

One, I would just like to see a picture of the Power Distribution working in any vehicle
Two, If I can get the PCM or the BCM data for a vehicle where the Power Distribution is working I can probably start there and do some analysis.
I think the Power Distribution needs some additional changes somewhere else since all the data has to be flowing around to control the traction. Also if you notice the image itself is a Ranger so it works somehow I would assume.
I'm not giving up on the Power Distribution option yet (I'll still...
Enabled Parking Aid Front and Rear
I enabled these but I couldn't toggle values in the menu. They always remained checked. Were you able to get them to toggle on an off using the options in the menus?
There are 2 ICP options in the list before you run the service procedure. Make sure you select the non-as-built option.
Note this extra option only started showing up in the latest version of forScan from 5/11.
Ray I don't know what the as built data is. I just changed the options using the real text that's in the latest version of the forScan app.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy Numerical Gauge (Enabled)
Intelligent 4WD Gauge (Enabled)
Intelligent 4WD Gauge Mode Feature (Enabled)
Silent Mode Control...
Just used the latest version of forScan to add these new options. There are easier to use module programming options now for many modules.
Instant fuel economy digital readout instead of horizontal bar
Power distribution for trail mode
Silent mode (Dark car) menu control
Ford is notorious for repurposing multiple different parts to save money and cut costs in manufacturing. I have been heavily testing off the F-150 list and have found many options that work right off that list. However, there are a few on the Mustang list that work too.
Mainly the issue is...
Yeah I keep digging through the 7 spreadsheets I have of forScan data for all the different models. This engine noise thing I don't really care about so I figured I'd let some other adventuresome person try it out.
Oh weird. I didn't check to see if I have the ACM module yet but I do have the as built data containing the 727-01-01. I will have to see where that lives. It may have been moved into a different module.
I am going to need a little help confirming this one as I don't really notice the fake engine noise, but I think I finally found the option to disable it.
Note this is all a guess but its at least a start for someone who cares to try it out.
