Thanks to all the contributors on this and the first Forscan thread.
Really appreciate some of these mods.

Do you get the extra camera options while driving if you do the turn signal camera mod?

The side cameras are viewable while moving with the 50/50 enabled.

This would be great to have until Ford gives us turn signal cams without a trailer. Do you have the Forscan codes to enable 50/50 view? I couldn't find them specific to Lightnings.

I have a 2023 so ymmv but below are the changes I made along with my factory values. If yours are different then the updated value will change. You're basically enabling 50/50 views for the APIM values. I also have Cameras At Speed enabled and the Full View Not Available box removed.

APIM 7D0-01-01 xxxx *xxx xx-- 3 (factory setting 1)
APIM 7D0-01-04 xxxx xxxx x*-- 1 (factory setting 0)

Trailer Side View - shows corresponding camera view alongside of vehicle when turn signal is applied with trailer connected. See here for details. Note: requires newest 12/23 IPMA update.
IPMA 706-01-02 *xxx xxxx xx-- if 0 change to 3, if 7 change to F
APIM 7D0-02-03 xxxx x*xx xx-- if 0 change to 8, if 4 change to C, adds Trailer Side View toggle under Driver Assistance

Was there an OTA that updated the IPMA?

Was there an OTA that updated the IPMA?

For my 2022, an IPMA module update appeared around 12/23 along with the PSCM. They were updated with the Front Parking Sensor CSP last summer. So no OTA but if you had the CSP done you should be good. I think 2023's (at least those built later in 2023) would be okay.

The BC 1.4 OTA that EAP has received will update both modules as well. So when that OTA rolls out to the masses then you should be good as well.

I have BC1.4 but I decided to hold off on this mod until I can test it. I don't have a trailer handy and even if I did it's currently 2° and I don't want to be outside.

@bmwhitetx, this mod is worth putting in the first post. 50/50 View and 50/50 View at speed. You definitely need to reference @Livnitup spreadsheet to make sure you keep current options.

So I checked my database of F-150's and here's what I found:

for APIM 7D0-01-01 xxxx *xxx xx--
All '22 and '23 Lightnings have a 1 there so they would change to a 3
All 24's Lightnings have have a 3 there already so no action needed.

for APIM 7D0-01-04 xxxx xxxx x*--
All '22 and '23 Lightnings have a 0 or an 8 (Smart Hitch) there so they would add 1 to make it a 1 or 9
All 24's Lightnings have have a 9 there already so no action needed.

So it looks like 24's should already have this feature. I'll add it to post 1 and take pics once I test on my truck - when it warms up!

Note ICE vehicles have completely different values so they should not follow this advice.

Added the changes to enable the 50/50 camera view button to post 1. Thanks to @PJnc284 .
Note this is for 2022 and 2023's. I believe 2024's should already have this view.

Here is a pic of the button that gets added before and after:

And the new view (will try to get this while actually on a highway):

That’s sweet!

Here's one from the original thread from @dingmah that wasn't put on the master list. Whenever you start your truck, the Vehicle Power Down Timer is always enabled. This shuts the truck off after 30 minutes.

This mod will default that toggle to Off on start. Can be useful if you are using Pro Power or doing FDRS programming a lot.

Clearly you want to use this with caution. If you leave your truck on and in Park accidentally, it will stay on presumably until the battery dies. You can set a reserve when you turn Pro Power on but doubtful that applies when the truck is just on and Pro Power is off (let me know if otherwise and I'll edit).

IPC 720-01-01 x*xx xxxx xx if F then change to 7, if C change to 4.

Note that 2022-2024 Lightnings with ACC will have a "F" and trucks without ACC will have a "C". As always, let me know if you see something different.

Does anyone know if this is applicable to Lightnings?

Looking to have the DRLs be amber all the time.

@bmwhitetx any chance you could take a look into this?

I didn't know our DRL's would change. I don't think we have switchbacks like some ICE do we? We have dedicated blinkers.

My DRLs switch to orange when I turn blinkers on. 2023 XLT Option 312A.

 

[bordner42]

Are these not the DRL's? I would think there's some way to have them activate amber when on, but someone who is more versed in Forscan might be able to figure it out.

I'd also like to be able to have the turn indicators remain on (in amber) while driving too, but haven't figured that out either.
