ECU module programming guide using FDRS

[tonesto7]

I'm surprised a lot of you with FRDS licenses aren't out running that program to see what it does.

I would have! But I traded in my Job 1 truck for a new 2022 F-150 Platinum Powerboost. That one came with BC activated for next 3 years!

I'm in a similar boat. I'm trading my 2021 Job1 Platinum Powerboost for a 2022 KingRanch Powerboost. I don't even know why I did all these updates for the next owner except for the nerd in me?

I have checked your VIN in FDRS. You don't have any outstanding updates, only GSM is showing up:

but, in the Programable Features, you have a new Options for "Enable BlueCruise Prep Kit":

I'm stuck on the GSM, tried over and over and it keeps coming back with no failures. I noticed the BlueCruise Prep Kit as well but wasn't sure if I should do it. Any ideas on what's up with the GSM and should I do the BC Prep?

Bob - check out message 36 and 86.
GSM not clearing may be a bug in FDRS.

Thank you! Must have missed reading it...

I think you should try the BC Prep and let us all know

@Bob_Mac If you do the BC prep, Can you see what it actually changes? With it being just the apim, My guess would be just a few config changes to add the options. but who knows?

Well... Hurry up!!! I don't feel like working today and would like to play with my truck

I'll take pics during the process and then poke around to see if any options become available.

I'm trying to set my expectations that this won't actually enable Bluecruise.
I still think we need an IPC update for this to work.
Maybe once it's complete it will unlock the IPC update in FRDS

I really don't feel like working and my impulse control is getting the best of me I think I'm going to buy a license...
