A couple of things, the new Explorer does not have Sync 4, it uses a Google infotainment. Not sure if they would still require a sub base system but might for Ford services. The Sync 4 nav will work for life BUT RTT and CB routing will not work which is almost standard for different automakers...

Outstanding I had a thought It's a new 25?? Pop into dealer and ask why it's not working I bet they have zero clue it wasnot installed from factory...might be able to finagle a freebie

Heard back from FORScan Team and they can't assist. I just purchased the Mongoose Plus J2534 Wired Adapter. Will report back how the process went and the steps to activate the keypad.

Yeah, I was thinking about purchasing a new adapter so I can run FDRS when needed. I'm gonna see what FORScan team says first. Hopefully they can figure something out. The cheapest adapter was like $400 on Amazon.

...of note, the hands free liftgate is gone on the 23's and 24's, sure you can buy the correct module and plug it in and make the changes in forscan to get it to work, but in my case I tried just that but never got it working so I gave up. The parking brake update that ford implemented as a...

I was wondering why some FORScan things weren't working on my 24 LARIAT. Thank you to all the people who take the time to make the spreadsheets. It is really appreciated. To show my gratitude, here's the shop manual for the 2025 Explorer and the 2024 F150.

Thanks for the response. I sent them an email. The latest Beta version 2.4.14 identified the vehicle and listed all the modules properly so I thought we were in business. I enabled Bambi Mode and that works. Got the new spreadsheet from your other post. Thanks!

Email the forscan creators at the forscsn forum They need your Vin and specific info and csn write you a special path 25s are new, I posted up the indrpth, but no common stuff yet

...forum. I just installed the Wired Keyless Entry Keypad on my wifes 2025 Explorer ST. Part # LB5Z7820555E I have went through the steps in FORScan to program, but was unsuccessful. I am running the 2.4.14 Beta version. Here are the steps I took to program BdyCM and APIM in the plain...

Not following your thought It only shows an icon on dash in sport mode And does illuminated switch on center console only in sport..bot sure why All other modes it's not on the ip or illuminated

Three different ways to turn off auto start stop. Turn off with Forscan, certain device, or have your aftermarket tuner turn it off.

Checked the oil pressure with Forscan. 16 PSI at idle Jump up to 60 PSI reving the engine up.

Absolutely right! I used it all the time with FORScan. I just don't work on vehicle anymore like I used and that's why I'm selling the Mongoose interface. I rarely used Ford's software because FORScan can do just about everything. But for those few things that FORScan cannot do, it's nice to...

...the cheapest route to nearly all functionality. Unless there's a scan tool for under 1k that can do everything, which would be amazing, that will likely be the route I take. When I get home tonight I am going to try the MX+ with Forscan and see if that enables me to do what I have to currently.

Just as an aside, the Mongoose can also be used with Forscan, in addition to FDRS.

Thank you I didn't even know FDRS was a thing. I will try to find a compare/contrast of features between Forscan and FDRS, if anyone else has any other scan tools they want to recommend that works for these purposes, feel free to add. I do believe there is a level of complexity and knowledge...

Here is a link to the FORScan forums page Here. You can reprogram some thing, make keys, etc. It does quite a bit. You just need an interface and a laptop.

...that works with Ford's software. I would just buy a 2-day license whenever I needed to work on a Ford vehicle and had to do something FORScan was not capable of. I mainly purchased it to tune my Mustang but it worked great if I had to run the ABS pump or reprogram something. If it's something...

I've never used Forscan. Mainly I want something I can for sure turn my fuel pump on to empty my tank as I've had to do that twice from bad e85. Secondly I want something capable of relearning modules if I want to swap out for instance, my ABS module is bad, and I don't want the dealer to...

Did you use the OBDlink MX+ with Forscan? Forscan has some service procedures in addition to diagnostics. Forscan Lite is great also for diagnostics and a limited number of service procedures while on the go. I keep my MX+ in the car for when a dash warning pops up or when I have some down...
