This message popped up, after enabling hill decent control mod on FORScan. Has this happened to anyone else? Vin in abs module matches trucks. Set it back to factory code is still popping up. Any hints on how to correct?

My first thought was, 'Have you been making any modifications with ForScan?"

If you just restored the one value that might not fix it. You should restore the entire module configuration that you (hopefully) backed up before you made any modifications.

That would be my first suggestion on what to try.

I agree with @RedlandRanger try restoring the entire module first. Like he saids hopefully you backed up all your modules before making changes.

Just curious, where did you get the values you changed and which ones where they in what module(s). Also wondering why you felt you needed to change this, mine seems to be engaged all the time and especially noticeable in tow mode.

When you say reset all modules , are you saying you went through the whole system ? Bcm module, apim module ipc module etc …. Or just the one.
I’m trying to fix mine at the moment as well
