F150 Lightning FORscan thread

[rugedraw]

Have you tried "headlight calibration" via FORScan?

No, and didn't even think of that, tbh. General rule of thumb is to try the easier things first, so I will. I plan to mess around a bit tomorrow since I'm off.

I just did it for my 2024 XLT, it’s about 500 for all parts and a few hours of your time. Find the thread called diy adaptive cruise control install by brotato and Hhunterfamily on this forums all instructions and all problems you will encounter will be there.

Thanks!

I had to get a test version of forscan, but I now have the glare-free lights working. Followed OP instructions and ran the headlight calibration. They still move smoothly, no issues that I can tell.

Well, I didn't get a chance to mess with it yet, but the movement of the lights is jolted and not smooth or fluid. Also, they turn off sometimes even when there are no cars coming in the opposite direction. I live in the city where it is bright and it is rare I am in an area dark enough for them to come on. It's hard to describe the behavior, but I can tell you when I first enabled them a while back ago, it worked REALLY well and now it doesn't, so something isn't right somewhere.

Did you do any investigation this weekend? I made a post a few weeks back about the behavior changing. The lights used to have a very smooth change to them, you could see the blend. That is no longer the case. My last trip you can see the pixels actually turning on and off as the lights change now. It's rather blunt, no longer smooth. I don't know where or how, but I'm guessing Ford has updated an underlying module or piece of SW somewhere.

I didn't really have any unexpected behavior, but the blending is no longer smooth. I haven't had Forscan plugged into the truck in a while, so I know I didn't make any changes to affect this.

I did not. I was planning on messing with it at my buddy's house, but when I got there, it was beer o'clock and before you knew it, the sun was going down and I didn't do a damn thing. lol

I've read that too; about the movement of the lights being blunt now with newer software. I'll get to messing with it eventually and report back anything I find.

I enabled glare free before my truck received its first update, mine have always been abrupt. Each segment immediately disables and then will fade back in very quickly.

The bending is smooth and rapid.
