Drive mode default

Yes, it stays in the same mode as the last time I drove it.

See thread below. It also list some of the pluses and minuses.

Drive Mode Memory Installation

I was tired of hitting the button 5 times every time I started the car to put it in ECO mode. I like the way adaptive cruise control responds in ECO mode. I think there are a lot of people who would use this for sport mode. I saw the memory module for the F150 and I wanted to see if I could...

Hmm, my 2018 Platinum seems to do just fine setting tow mode whenever the electrical plug is inserted. It informs me the next time I start it that it's off - no trailer detected. Nice feature, but dumb that it has to display an alert for 10 or so seconds unless I hit the ok button.

If you have a 21 Expedition, please go to the FORSCAN area, there is a thread where the Beta version of FORSCAN is posted that will work with a 21. Search is your friend.

Also, DO NOT use direct line code changes from any previous Expeditions, as the 21's are even somewhat different than the 20's. Use the drop downs.

Also, FORSCAN cannot change the default. It will default to Normal. The 21 150's ask you. If you don't answer in a few seconds it goes back to Normal.

I'm one of those guys that made direct line changes, I didn't know there were drop downs when I first started using forscan. I tried to revert a setting back to the original code (auto start/stop disable) but not the start/stop only works when it wants to. I tried changing it through the drop down afterwards but it didn't help. A couple issues that I think may be a culprit.
1. i tried the the revert with a newer version of forscan than what I used to make the changes.
2. The new version of forscan now warns me able my adapter, because it is not one of the adapters listed on the forscan website. My adapter worked fine when I made the initial changes.

Should I try an older version of forscan to try and fix the start/stop function?

Did you backup the stock settings on the module before you made changes? If not, you can ask in the FORSCAN Area for the coding from another 2018 with similar options. You can then compare.

ALWAYS back up the whole module before making line item changes. It is part of the basic tutorials on FORSCAN usage.

Third Row Seat Fold Button Addition

Hello everyone. My wife just recently upgraded her 2018 Expedition limited to a 2021 Expedition Platinum. One feature she was hopeful to see (but disappointed to not find) was the addition of a button or buttons in the front to fold the rear third row down without having to go to the back of...

Of course I didn't.........I figured I could just change the one digit back to the original number and there be no problem. I wrote down what I changed on paper for when this time came around.

The problem is that one digit can cause another digit to change based on the total coding of that line. That is why you should always backup the modules, AT LEAST once before you start making any changes, so you can go back to default.
