UPDATE: ebmav's post got me back on track. I wasn't scrolling up in vehicle settings to see the other options. Duh! The intelligent oil monitor is sure enough still there! (y)

As the title says, I've lost my on dash intelligent oil life monitor screen. It was an option under Menu, Settings, Vehicle. It's no longer there, in fact the only option under Vehicle Settings is Wipers, Enable Courtesy Wipe.

I did a quick search to see if others have had this issue, and the only thing I could find was someone saying to look for the Oil Life Monitor under Menu, Information. Problem is, my menu does not have an Information option at all.

I'm posting on this thread because I did do a few Forscan mods and am hoping I didn't disable the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor somehow.

Has anyone come across this issue and found a solution how to get that screen back?

I did have the taillight and BCM recalls done at the dealership last month, FWIW.

This is out of left field, because I have not started playing with Forscan yet - but did you by chance use a different key than usual?

When I first got my truck I was playing with MyKey and it ended up not being useful at all for me. But along the way, I noticed that it locked me out of some things I wanted to be able to access, including menu settings.

I realize you may have a giant keychain or something that makes it impossible to use "a different key," but it will collectively take us both less than a minute to post/read this, so I thought I'd ask. :)

Same key I've been using, but I appreciate the idea and suggestion. I keep track of oil changes on paper, but would sure like to have the truck's IOLM screen back.

Wondering if resetting the console screen or pulling the battery cables might reset it?

BTW, the oil life monitor was working after my Forscan tweaks, then when I checked one day it was gone so I'm doubtful it was anything related to those.

I recently had a mobile service and recall completed on our Tremor. First thing I noticed was it took two presses of the key fob to unlock the doors, which was new always unlocked all doors on the first press. I went into the menu to change the settings and the wiper option only available too. No oil life monitor either. Took to dealer and was totally embarrassed, the wiper option is the last item on the settings menu. You have to scroll up from the menu option to see the rest of the options, i.e.. door locks, oil life monitor, etc. Hope this helps.

That makes sense! If that's it it would be a big duh on my part also! I'll check manyana, it's late.

The door lock/unlock options are user selectable menu.

On the hybrids it's on the same menu as tire pressure. Did ya lose that too!?
I was making some changes in ForScan today (adding Traffic Sign Recognition) and now I don't have tire pressure under the information screen. I still have oil life! I can still see tire pressure on the FordPass app.

I always thought one press unlocked the driver's door only and two presses unlocked all doors including the tailgate.

I still don’t see it. In fact, it feels like there is a lot missing since they came and did all the recall updates. Can anyone take a screenshot for my dumb ass?
