Stick with one of the suggested Forscan models, if that's what you are purchasing it for, because Forscan is finicky.

Are you looking for just a reader or programmer? I might be wrong but I don't think the Harbor Freight one can program and add disabled features. If you are looking for a reliable reader, Amazon is full of dongles that use an app for reading and interpreting codes.Or the ones harbor freight sell? They say obd2 but working with for scan is my worry

Makes sense - HF probably is just like what OReillys throw on your car whereas these Amazon ones plug into car and you can plug computer with forscan for add deleting etc

BTW for any of you looking for a simple TPMS "programmer" for Ford vehicles, these things are still available. I bought one maybe 10 years ago and they work fine (for sensor excitation).

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if multiple cars can be programed to the same fob? I drive a '20 Epxy and the wife drives a '18 Continental. Would be nice to be able to have all four fobs programmed to the same two cars. Back before fobs and chips when we both drove Chrysler products, I cut one side of the double bladed key to my Dodge Grand Caravan and the other side of the double bladed key to the wife Dodge's Acclaim, and accomplished the same one key-both cars trick.
We have a 2017 Edge in addition to our 2019 Expy. They both came with only one key. Our local Ace Lock & Key duplicated both of them exactly. The Edge was acquired three years ago. The extra key cost us $300. The Expy key was only $225. The replacements are identical to the originals. I've been told that the Ford dealership is required to charge a lot more than a locksmith does.

Mercedes charged $650.00 last year and you cannot get it anywhere else.
