The ECUs are still locked with no progress on unlocking them reported yet. It’s probably going to be a little while.

The mustang took like 4 months to get it unlocked.

This is different.

All the major tuners are saying it could be as long as years. The new level of encryption is hardcore. Apparently you won’t even be able to do ecm swaps to older units like you could with the recent F150’s.
I hope they’re wrong and they get cracked soon but don’t hold your breath.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the government is pushing encryption more than the manufactures. Can’t have people working on their cars anymore

Where did you hear that? Last I heard was the only mod you could do was a whipple supercharger because ford gave them a key to unlock the computer, henceforth all the superchargers for the 24+ mustangs are basically rebranded whipples. I've heard recently that ford has given roush a key also so they should have their own superchargers out for the 24's soon.

Tuners are still trying to crack the 23+ F150 ECUs. I think it'll be a while for the 25+ Explorers. The 24+ Mustang ECU may get cracked as it will get the most attention due to more people tuning Mustangs than F150s and Explorers.

Exactly what I was going to say, I don’t think an Explorer is their top priority.

My contact at HP Tuners said "sooner rather than later".

Funny because all the actual tuners aren’t so confident. HP or otherwise.

Time will tell, but "actual tuners" have no idea. This guy is in charge of the Ford development at HPT.
