Below is the link to the updated FORScan changes that is currently available for our 2020+ Ford Explorer and applies to all trims for those who don't have an ST. This one is for us, which helps compile all into one.

Keep in mind that the sheet will be updated by @powerboatr and @Nightshade (myself). If you're interested in something that isn't on the sheet yet, just reach out to myself or @powerboatr or comment on this thread.

--DISCLAIMER; for those asking me regarding the turn signals to change from 3-clicks to let's say 5-clicks, it won't be possible. I looked into this myself and the issue is that the signal stalk on the 2020+ Explorers are using a slightly older stalk so issue isn't just software, but also hardware. So in saying this, changing the turn signals in FORScan will not be possible for the 2020+ Explorers for the unforeseeable future.

It's been years since I used Forscan (on my 2017 Fusion Sport) and I'm having issues connecting my ODBLink MX to my Windows computer. Back then I had a Windows 7 laptop but I'm running Windows 11 now and I can't get the OBD device to connect via Bluetooth. Anyone have any ideas what I need to do in order to use Forscan?

Has anyone ever had the service stop at 50% and stay there? I was trying to disable the auto start/stop and it just hung at 50%,

that can happen, 1st check state of charge of your battery or have it plugged into a charger
then disconnect, restart forscan and re connect to car and start the process again, and what connector cable are you using? and is your forscan copy the most up to date version 2.3 .61 is latest
remember sync and the modules are not fast like a laptop and sometimes the process gets held up by lack of communication with the modules

Yeah my laptop's bluetooth stopped working. I had to download/install the drivers for it. Luckily, it didn't start the writing process. Thanks for the feedback.
