So we just picked up a 2015 expedition limited. I've got the correct obd2 but missing modules to modify to mirrrs to autofold and tilt on reverse. Anyone had any luck getting these to work.

Would really appreciate some help!

Thanks, Sam

What’s in the sheet is what we have been able to get to work.

The 15-17 Expys are missing the DDM and PDM. Those are the modules that do those functions on most other current Ford Vehicles.

It seems that several things are going on here, so I’ll try to answer as many as I can;

First, the 2018 Power Point code will not work on your 2017 (if that’s what you are trying to do)

.

so what would your suggestion be to sort that out? I have an engel fridge in the back of my truck that lives there permanently and is connected to a goal zero yeti. I've been using the AC adapter with the inverter to get this sorted, but I would really prefer to have a 12v plug that was keyed so I can charge the yeti that way. I was going to figure out how to remove the rear passenger side panel to replace the 12v outlet with a dual anderson plug, but unfortunately with it being always-on that's not really going to work out.

Anyone have the wiring diagrams for the center console maybe?

The expy has been through a lot the past month. I now have gotten my mirrors folding and unfolding through a module under the seat, full sync 3 replacement, and some other changes.

The one thing I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to do is get the white active reverse guidelines to show up on the new sync 3 system through forscan. Got any ideas?? I've been hunting around with no luck

The Moving lines are not possible on my 17...Since you replaced the APIM it might have the code to do it.

Hello guys, I have a problem with not being able to turn off the door ajar chimes when ignition is on. I have a 2015 Expedition Limited. I’ve tried the coding from the spreadsheet here, the F150, the F250... none of it works... chime drives me up the wall!

Any suggestions on a research path to figure it out?

Take a look at Explorer coding. I had no issues turning it off on our 15 and our 17...using 2014 F150 coding before the sheet in this thread existed.

On my 2016 Limited, I've been able to change the double honk without issue. I've been trying to change the nav system so that it works in motion, with the APIM change in 7D0-02-01 sector. Mine had the "5' in the second place and I changed it to the "7", but even after several days and numerous key cycles, power resets and master resets, the nav still shuts off as soon as you start moving. Does anybody have any help?

Thanks.



on edit correcting the sector- for some reason I keep thinking it's the 726 sector, but that's in the BCM for the double honk and the bambi mode, the nav is in the 7D0 sector. Trying to eliminate some confusion. When I'm working on the nav, I'm in the APIM, in 7D0-02-01.
Thanks and apologies for the confusion

As a follow up to my prev post, I had not updated the sync in some time and the older version somehow did not allow for the in motion nav. Once I updated it, it the nav is working in motion. So if you're having some weird issues, try updating sync to see if that fixes the issues.

Just to confirm what you're saying, to get NAV in motion to work you updated APIM 7D0-02-01 to show "7" in space two versus "5"?

It is in the spreadsheet.

The issue, is it is not an In Motion Setting technically. It puts the radio in Europe mode, where it is not illegal. It changes other things. Some of the SiriusXM Travellink features go away. The big thing that goes away is the E911 feature that will automatically use the connection to your phone to dial 911 in the event of an accident.

I was not willing to lose this critical safety feature in order to gain a little convenience. When my wife totaled the 15 Expy, when somebody turned in front of her at 45. It called 911 while she was still dazed. She has nothing but bruises, but if it was worse, I would want it to do everything it could to get her help.

With CarPlay I just use Waze. Much more accurate anyway!

Maybe I'm just looking at an old version of the spreadsheet. I looked and didn't see it there. Now that you mention the Europe mode, I remember seeing this before.
I'm going to try Waze. I've been using Google Maps and MapQuest via the Android app. I guess I'm a dinosaur lol I like being able to use the factory system though.

HawkX66,

That's correct, updating he APIM line 7D0-02-01, space 2 from the OEM "5" to a "7" does activate it. I don't use my Expy a lot, but when I do, I'm usually traveling with a passenger who can then use it to it's fullest. I try not to do stuff like that when I'm by myself. So the advantage is as a driver, you can head out in the direction you already know you need to go and the passenger can then nail down the final destination details while you're headed there. I like that ability.

You won’t regret using Waze. Google Maps is good also. Both blow the factory system out of the water.

Hey all, just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work everyone has done on this project. I’ve been reading through this whole thread for the past week or so, and finally had time to do everything I wanted this morning. Activated remote start, factory TBC, Bambi mode, 6 blinker flashes, remove key in ignition chime, remove green fog lamp indicator from dash, and fog lights as DRL. Truly awesome. Thanks again.

I did some re-programming this weekend. A few worked and a couple didn't work. Here's what I ended up with:

-Reverse title mirrors didn't work. I couldn't find the DDM.

-Double Horn honk. Very bummed this didn't work. Gas station, leave key in pocket and get out to pump gas and you get two loud honks. Very annoying...

-Seat belt minder shut off. Worked.

-Heated/Cooled seats icons. Worked.

-Secure idle enable. Worked. Might have been enabled already...

15-17 has no PDM or DDM. Hence why a lot of options available on other vehicles in those same years is not available in ours.

I got the Double Honk Disable to work on both our old 15, and our Current 17. Try it again.

Will do. Thanks.
Actually... strike that, reverse. I didn't have the line that needed to be changed. 726-41-02

That's interesting your 17 doesn't have the 726-41-02 line, as my 16 Limited EL has it and I did the change to stop the double honk. It also appears to stop the horn from honking at all when the engine is running. Meaning when I leave the vehicle and double punch the fob lock button, I do not get a honk signifying the car is locked.

On the secure idle, what is the "change to" number in 726-42-01? Is the "1" the correct number to enable it or is it something else?
