I enabled to Traffic sign recognition as per the instructions on my 2021 XLT. It Didn't seem to read any signs, but I know some others were wondering what the 2 different traffic sign boxes were for and I figured it out...

The box on the right is supposed to show you the signs read by the camera (Which doesn't seem to work for me) The box on the left shows you the speed limit from Google maps (If connected). If I have android auto running it passes that speed limit info right into the cluster. Not sure if this will do the same for Apple Carplay or not....

So you are getting speed limits from Google Maps? My 2019 does not do this. I run Google Maps when I'm on a trip and have never had this happen. My speed limit sign recognition work just fine, other than showing in European style round signs. That is a 2019 thing that appears to have been corrected in 2020. I was lead to believe the left spot was for the European version of our no passing signs. Seems kind of useless to have two speed signs up in front of you.

Strange, mine is a 2021 and I have just the opposite. Google Maps when running populates the left box. the right box never seems to read any sign... (or at least it hasn't yet....)

Suspect the European vs US signs is a module firmware thing between MY2019 and MY2020. You made the same changes I did in Forscan.

Yeah I started trying to sort thru the differences in Forscan between the 2 years to see if there is a setting that can be chnaged. But it fell off my list.

So looks like I was wrong. I did some more testing without my phone connected and I indeed have the limit icon on the left box in the dash. Seems the cameras are doing their thing...

Cool....

So FP tune and forscan is a no go huh. Guess I won’t be adding TM on..

At most you'll need to flash the tune back to stock, make your forscan adjustments and then reflash your tune.

With the Ford tune it blocks forscan?

I have the FP tune on my truck (installed prior to delivery) and it had no impact on FORScan. It seems to be an issue for some and not others. I wonder if it's been happening to people that have initiated FORScan and saved a vehicle profile, and then got the tune afterwards? ?‍

Yup, same. I had tune and used FORScan with no issues except one. All changes stuck except for auto-relock. I had to manually set those values through the AS-Built.

Trying to do the changes to the IPC module & evey time I get procedure interrupted.

I’m using the OBDLink EX cable on 21 Lariat. Any tips or pointers?

Edit: I’m able to write to thr BCM no problem
Edit 2: Forgot to mention, when I write to the IPC & get the procedure interrupted the APIM throws a DTC Code: U1A00 - Private Communication Network. I'm only able to clear the DTC by rewriting the APIM module with my as-built backup.

 

[KnightWolf]

Reached out to forscan & they sent a beta build that can write to the IPC module.

Hopefully someone can answer this question. I have searched for but cannot seem to find any definitive answer.

Is the alert honk for arming the factory alarm when pressing lock on fob twice linked with the double honk on exit? I'm trying to figure out how to re-enable the alarm arm alert honk only. I tried enabling the honk on lock press "Feedback Horn" in Forscan but no success. Does anyone know off hand what needs to be switched to re-enable this?

I'm not sure which parameter disables/enables the honk on locking a second time with the fob, but it is not related to the double honk on exit with the truck running. I have disabled the double honk but not the alert honk, which is still functioning.
