I picked up this gem today, it was built mar 2023 and has been sitting on the dealer lot since mid april or so 23

drive home a few thoughts
is there a FORSCAN change to get a boost gauge, or a real tach vice a line up the side of the speedo
and is there a forscan spreadsheet like we have for f150 and super duty trucks

test drive was hmmmm OMG this puppy shiits and gets even in ECO mode

There is a forscan spreadsheet thread. There's one for A.S.S. disabling too.

We know where youre at - tach only in sport mode is DUMB, and no boost gauge at all is freakin RIDICULOUS.

Somehow Ford made a sport vehicle and decided not to be fully sporty. :ROFLMAO:

Link to the sheet
I found an old one.but it's not very up to date

O found setting to put a sliding tach on left side of speedometer.
But no temp, no Trans temp, no boost
Sort of strange.
I need to look at an aviator as built to see what it has once I download load the as built files today

Livnitup's U625 Explorer as-built spreadsheets
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14sSYEErM-6OjVQ3CIukfkgBqYkDE2w8imywaNF8VJF8/edit?usp=sharing

you can't get boost gauge because the IPC UI doesn't support this unless you replace a Focus ST's IPC

ipc is instrument panel cluster
UI is ???

but the boost is in there, as its on the lincoln aviator so its loaded we just have to go through the data line by line to see if we can enable it
the spreadsheet above is the one i am working on and updated the other day for common.
It might not be enabled in the vehicle firmware ..but it's early yet for me so I am digging in like my f150 to exploit anything we c a n. To mske our driving experience as good as we can get

Looking for the number of flashes line for lane changing. Should be on the common list. 3 flashes is standard. I want 5 or 7 for trailering.

Which module?

There’s no boost gauge to enable. People have looked for years.

Well well well if it isn't my 14th gen F-150 buddy haha!

If you need the help, let me know. I've discovered a few FORScan changes that work on the Explorer ST. Already well ahead into it! ;)

Thank you for all your help here. I’m really trying to find a way to set a different drive mode to come on when started. Currently defaults to normal, but many here would love to have it default to Sport or Eco

Sadly it is impossible to do so.

You're welcome! Like @2020FordRaptor said, I still haven't found the work around for that even in the 2021+ F-150s.. yet. Rest assured I'm still looking into this.
