Forscan problem

[ldhdrider]

I have been able to connect and view the modules on my 2025 Lariat eco boost. When trying to disable the auto start stop. I get this. (See attached photo)
Anyone know how to get past this obstacle?
Thanks

Could be wrong but I believe only the BETA Forscan software works with 2025s and possibly only Hybrids.

Still too wet for me to mess with yet.

I believe I'm using the latest beta version that is suppose to work on the 2025 eco boost. V2.3.65test20250201
it seems to work OK except when trying to write a change. haven't seen anyone post anything about a "security key wrong"

That would have me wait til fully compatible bersion
Would hate to brick a module

That error means that there's an incompatibility handshaking with the gateway module. This is fairly common on the latest and greatest model lines. If the latest available beta doesn't work then it will be a waiting game until they update it to function with the 2025's. Sometimes you can write to some modules and not others, sometimes you can't write anything to any module.

Contact the Forscan people on their forum. They will want logs. That is the only way these things get fixed; people have to show them the problems.

I was able to use the latest beta version on mine and get rid of the seat belt warnings. That's all I have done and tried so far.

That’s the only thing il probably do. Unless some other feature annoyance like seatbelt pops up. Don’t own one yet to find any diskikes

but I know seatbelts warning and chimes would annoy me.

Steps the same as 2022-2024?

I wasn't aware you could disable the auto stop using Forscan? I bought the module that plugs into the switch on the console. It remembers the last state (on or off) and works great. Bought it off ebay for under $30.

when you do this, does it not pop up a screen at all when you turn car on, seatbelt on or off? I read it takes 7 seconds for it to away upon start! thats insane

 

[anthonym6]

Yes all warnings and screens gone. It was very annoying. Replaced everything in the as built with 0s (Same steps as the 22-24). Someone else here confirmed they did it with their 25 hybrid too.

I did the version that stopped the chime but the message is there until you buckle the belt then it goes away. The long delay before it went away was annoying! I also turned of the double honk when you get out of the truck with the fob in your pocket with the engine running. That one was at the top of my list for annoying! I want to go back in and change the auto blink when changing lanes for 3 to 5 blinks. Three just isn't enough.

Signaling a lane change does not grant one permission to do so. If another vehicle is so close that signaling is required just to do so safely, then perhaps the move could be intrinsically unsafe.
But……if there is plenty of room to move over safely, then three blinks should suffice.
