Disabling auto start/stop

[Artie]

I literarily bought the recommended $85 dongle last night. I wish it would work with iOS but seeing that I have to use my pc to make any changes I figured what’s the point. I have an android device so if I want I can monitor it but I’m assuming it won’t be as cool as I think. I’m just hoping all the values are the same for the Navigator.

Works like a charms and was only $29.99

25$ sounds suspect for an ODB2 dongle that will actually work.

my tool was $85 USD - one of the recommended ones.

from this thread (worth the week to read it, lots of good info in there):
https://www.f150forum.com/f118/forscan-software-enable-disable-features-your-truck-348987/

and the spreadsheet with values for the F150 (haven't really found any variance yet with the expedition)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...iVSlDFGFHnfeuhb3RTMVz95730/edit#gid=815852466

Or you can go to this Expedition discussion to learn more:

http://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/forscan-tweaks-2015.32082/

And then take a look at our Expedition spreadsheet for some 2018 options:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iO4Uz1shNRwZv5gi2TKARDo2Y7lfSOMFj6Gott8g7yg/edit?usp=sharing

Just select the 2018 tab at the bottom.

If you find any errors, or if you find other codes that work, please let me know and I'll add it to our Expedition spreadsheet. Thanks.

Fair enough, but the f150 spreadsheet has way way way more info in it that this one has. (i do recall seeing this sheet at least once).
I've read the 4th gen forscan thread, and the top one, but frankly the forum here when is comes to forscan is pretty slow when compared to F150.

So yes, Thank you for the links here, I believe anyone who is really interested in forscan modifications should read both.

And biggest issue right now for the 2018 Exped is cant flash anything on the IPC module

I'd pay $29 in a minute to disable auto on/off but I am terrified of screwing something up. Is this a difficult process? Can anyone please post very descriptive step-by-step so I wouldn't mess things up? PLEASE?

the google doc link listed in my post above IS a very thorough step by step with pictures.

I would say anyone familiar with computers / bluetooth / basic IT concepts, it's very easy. Hardest part is getting the adapter and the forscan dev license (apply for that ahead of time, can take a day waiting)

I looked at the Google link and it is a code list....no instructions on what to do. Thanks however!

This tutorial may help to understand FORSCAN and how to make changes using the codes on the other spreadsheet.
