I used Forscan for the 1st time this weekend... among all the little things I changed, the most important one by a long way was this:

I don't know if this is new to this release, but it definitely works and my subwoofer now sounds like it's supposed to.
how did you get there? What module is this in?

yeah my ACM module tab when opened looks nothing like that....
Make sure you're not using the "ASBUILT" tab - that only provides you access to the HEX codes, and not the FORScan GUI options.

I am using the latest Forscan beta 2.3.38. I only have the ACM asbuilt tab. I don't have the tab you show.

When connecting Forscan, do not load from a previously saved profile. When it loads, the ACM (non asbulit) will be there.

Can confirm this from @Ryan Plain - The ACM non-asbuilt is new to FORScan, so you need to setup a new profile with this module built into it.

I will give this a try. Thanks.

There's also an option near the top to select which speakers the ESE sound comes from.

The on/off difference is amazing... with my little Kicker Hideaway at half volume, it sounded like a Subaru was in the back seat. I had gotten used to it in nearly a year of ownership but I'm so glad to have it gone.

Deleted my old profile and created a new one and the tab was there. Disabled the engine noise and, to me, there is a noise reduction in the cab. With my hearing (wear hearing aids), any excess background noise is undesirable.

I also enabled the traffic sign display. It works fine and I get the NA versions of the sign in my 2020 XLT.

Well I guess I will be firing up FORScan this weekend! Thanks for the tip on this guys.

I alsi enabled the traffic sign display, but have Euro signs. Started trying to compare files from those with NA and those with Euro, but got busy. But one common thread seems to be that 2019s have Euro and 2020s have NA signs. Anyone who has seen a conflict to this please comment!

I also changed SESE to disable it yesterday and went for a short drive to pick up food and it was actually really incredible the difference in sound. It's so much quieter and "tamer" in the truck than it used to be. 100% recommended.

I haven't tried the traffic signs though, I've seen it a few times but never had a desire for it.

Also just went in and disabled the ESE but haven't gone for a drive yet.

Where can we find good descriptions of what all of these options are?
