Bronco ForScan Thread

[rugedraw]

Update:

I installed the app and was able to see what customizations would be available. There’s nothing related to mirrors. In fact, there are fewer options than what we already have here on the forum. There are options related to opening/closing windows and some things regarding headlights and turn signals. There’s not even an option to disable auto start/stop. I believe the vehicle shown in that video has some kind of hardware/wiring solution.

In your case that you do have functioning power-fold mirrors, I think it may be worth trying to enable the Lincoln auto-fold feature to see what happens. I tried it on mine and it didn't do anything, but at this point, I believe in the US market, we need a different mirror altogether. I already checked the engineering part numbers and the firmware strategy for the door modules of @hefler truck compared to mine and they are the same. The only difference in the configuration is that power-fold mirrors are enabled from Ford on his and not on mine.

@rugedraw I shared the sheet with the info

btw, look that video i made a few hours ago
my wife noted that behavior. I changed nothing from what we talked already

the fold button was pressed before turn off the car, so the mirror was fold.
I close the door and lock the car, the mirror unfold. I unlock the car and the mirror fold.
resume: we are almost there but is happening in the opposite way that we need

I was looking through what you sent me now. The problem is, the one difference on your friend's car is in DDM line 740-01-08 and that line is not in any of the spreadsheets for the F150, the Bronco, The Maverick or the 2024 and under Explorer. I am not sure what that 1 there does. You can try adding that 1 to your truck to see what happens and just change it back if you don't get the desired result.

Also, the BCM of these vehicles seems to be different from others, as well. We need to wait until we have a spreadsheet dedicated to these cars to really experiment with the BCM.

… is happening in the opposite way that we need

maybe this;

Synchronization issues: If the mirrors have been manually folded or unfolded, or a new power folding mirror has been installed, they may need to be re-synchronized. The Ford owner's manual outlines the procedure, which generally involves manually folding and unfolding the mirrors, then using the power folding switch to cycle them in and out until a click is heard, according to Ford Tremor Forum.

 

[Dude]

I don’t remember if you have aftermarket or Ford power fold mirrors, these are steps for Ford:

To resynchronize Ford power-fold mirrors, start by manually folding the mirrors all the way in. Then, use the power folding mirror control switch to fold and unfold the mirrors repeatedly until you hear a distinct click indicating they are resynchronized. This process might need to be repeated a few times.

This video demonstrates how to manually fold and unfold the mirrors, followed by using the power folding control switch:

Worth a try.

Ok, no sucsses here
Definitely my friend use a third party module to fold and unfold.
thanks all for the support

We're going to need to play with this to see the different responses from my speakers. It's odd that the bronco group is using 3800 which sets the output as non tweeter only. I would think this would then cut the higher frequency level. I suppose it might be most effective with the EQ set to 00. Guess we'll have to play with it.

Perhaps trying 3803 (no center channel for us) and setting EQ to 00 would be beneficial. That's mirroring what they are doing but without the center. Might be worth a listen.

So
727-01-01 = 3803, 0002, XXXX
This would be woofer only for both front and rear with no center.

727-01-02 = 0900, 0000, XXXX
For the flat EQ.

Perhaps that will stop the fronts from getting the distortion I was hearing and correct he bass roll off in the rears as the Bronco group found.

I've edited this post like 3 times and keep adding to it.... anyway. It's raining pretty hard here so I might not get to this today. @NavyBOFH, if you try this change let me know your results since we have a very similar setup.

Its been a while but I *finally* remembered to follow up on this. I had a bunch of dealer work done and they tossed a bunch of my ForScan changes in the process so I am revisiting this thread and implemented these changes and I can say so far it seems a LOT better - I don't need to crank most of the EQ settings up and the bass hits cleaner/harder from the in-door speakers than it did before at the same level. I am possibly going to tinker with it a bit more but it seems like this is as good as it will get...
