I have a 2024 Mav XLT Hybrid. I am wondering if a person uses forscan to change "Halogen to LED conversion" (is it even an option on hybrids??) if this will put an end to any and all hyperflashing in the tail lights.

I checked Ford Recall list with my VIN, twice and I do not need the taillight recall done. Truck was produced in April. I have watched plenty of you tube videos of guys upgrading but those are 99% ecoboost rigs. I found 1 2022 Hybrid owner who could not eliminate the hyperflash completely. Other hybrid owners may have experienced it later on and did not want to update there videos perhaps???

Do you suppose the forscan change would solve this??

Thanks,

Ron

I had a 2024 hybrid and there will be hyper flash if I had it on for longer than a minute.
Had to put the old bulb back in.
There is a reason that Ford is still using halogen in 2025 trucks?!

Just disable bulb outage detection.
That sounds too easy.....I need to get the forscan program and load it on my windows 7 laptop. Or should I use my Ipad with bluetooth capability to communicate with the Mavs computer??
