I feel like there have been a few other forum members that have run into this and said that the free licence still worked for them. The only thing I can suggest is to be patient and see if you get any response, or try to find someone close to where you live with an active licence that doesn't mind helping you with a forscan session.

Note that I don't believe they "send" you the free license. After requesting it you are then instructed to refresh the confirmation page after about a half hour. Did you try that?

Yep I just did this the other day. You aren't sent anything. But when you refresh that page or visit it again and click submit, it will either tell you there is already a request pending (and wait) or give instructions for downloading and installing the license key it generated.
Just read the page carefully and follow the instructions.

Not sure if this has been covered elsewhere in the thread, but my 2024 Lightning XLT does not have front parking assist, but does have rear assist. Kind of weird, but for what I'm paying to lease the truck, it's fine.
Front parking assist was what I want to add more so than the adaptive cruise, but, now that I see adding adaptive cruise is possible via the parts listed and FORScan, I'm pretty interested in doing that also because it will make highway trips much nicer.
I guess the other question I would have about the radar sensors, is it also possible to activate BlueCruise once you have the sensors, if you pay for it? Or has the mothership in Dearborn shut that possibility down?
38 pages...I will keep reading...

I think it's buried somewhere in this thread, or I might have read it in a different one
.... The short answer was not possible to add BlueCruise, but I can't remember exactly why. Probably another missing module required for the linking to the GPS and mapping is my guess.With unlimited time and resources though, I'm sure it's possible, but probably not practical.

Yep, the Pro and XLT are missing the CMR (Camera Module Rear / Driver Status Monitor Camera) module which consist of an in-dash IR lamp and a camera to monitor driver's eyes. These are needed for BC. You will see these devices on Lariat and Platinum. There are likely other missing links in the system as well plus I'm not sure how you would pay for the subscription since it's not on your account.I think it's buried somewhere in this thread, or I might have read it in a different one

I took delivery of a new 2024 that says it has Forward Sensing System, but it doesn't. While the dealer and Ford discuss what to do, I saw your post and was inspired. It will require a single wiring harness that has the drops for the proximity sensors, and the four sensors. I broke out an old windows laptop, loaded up FORScan, bought a Dongle, and prepared to ruin my new truck. I took this approach: wiring diagrams show all wires from both rear sensors, and front sensors go to the IPMA, so I looked at livinitup's spreadsheet found the tab for IPMA 2024 and searched for anything that looked like "cnfg_PA". It was all in 706-12-01, but it was so opaque that I knew there had to be a methodical way to find all the right parameters and figure out the correct values, but I sure don't have it. I live in Bend Oregon across the mountains, HOW DID YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT MODULES AND WHAT VALUES. I feel confident I could change what has been discovered before, but you broke new ground, and I was hoping you could cast some light of your discovery process.

Haven't read the whole thread - but if this is a new module you've recently added then you need to not use your stored profile in FORScan. It caches the modules you have and won't scan for new ones. You need to delete the current profile and rescan from the start.
Go here:
Highlight the Lightning profile and then click the trashcan icon at the bottom. Then do a connect. It will prompt to create a new profile for that VIN.
