are you joking? or for real? lol
if for real then, how do I rescan, by disconnecting and reconnecting or is there a better way?
No need to rescan @3rdgenfan fan highlighted it for you. It's just not the 3 letter abbreviation.

Did anyone notice brighter light bar (I’m in a Lariat) when making the changes to 100% My bar doesn’t look any brighter.

I made this change last year and truly didn't notice any change. I believe this change is the same the ICE trucks make for their running lights. One person noted in a video early on they seemed brighter, but I can't tell any difference. This light bar is one of the weakest things Ford did for the Lightning.

I haven’t recalibrated yet but im
Off by only 1mph. Steering wheel is straight as an arrow. I’m assuming you had it aligned already?

no I just finished the install, probably going to have it aligned this week, I just drove it a few miles and didn’t notice anything but didn’t go fast on freeway either so I don’t know yet, doesn’t seem bad at all, probably not much needed except for the minor steering wheel adjustment

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that worked so hard on this thread and on other threads. I finally received my Pro and have already added some stuff through forscan and I'm waiting on parts to add the heated steering wheel and adaptive cruise control. You guys have made it super simple to do these upgrades, and I really appreciate it!

Has anyone looked into getting phone as a key (PAAK) enabled on the lower end models? I know it would probably take some additional modifications, but I'd be interested in finding out what it entails.

Thank you to all who have posted some of these custom changes we can make. I have made the LED Bar brightness increase and the turn signal change from 3 to 5 with no issues.

I have noticed a couple changes that have (-) in them. I understand the (X) means the characters stay the same. I am not clear on the (-). Does that me the original character is 1) Deleted, Changes to (-) or Stays the same? I imagine it is not stays the same or it would be an (X). Thanks.

I would love to know as well! But some people say there maybe be physical hardware changes needed as well as the changes to the phone app in order for all of this to work properly. Unfortunately @Ford Motor Company will not provide any clarification.

Those are the last two characters. They are checksums. Treat them as X, i.e., leave them alone. Forscan will recalculate them and change them.
