ForScan Tweaks - 2015+

[Cowboy183]

Your missing the actual powerfold motors on the mirrors. You would have to replace your OEM mirrors with powerfold mirrors, install the appropriate wire harness, and then find the specific FORScan line(s) to change/enable powerfold. It may be possible, but very difficult...not a simple 'enable'.

The truck has powerfolding mirrors, just controlled by the mirror joystick, so that's why I'm tring to find a way to have them automatically fold/unfold upon locking/re-entry like my explorer did.

Should've been more clear in my original post about what my "autofold" goal was... my apologies

I've spent many days searching this forum and taking notes. 2024 Limited 4x4 HD Tow. Today I plugged in my Forscan, made a backup, and spent about 2 hours going through every submenu and making changes to what I think were clear upgrades as written in the easy-configuration options. Turned off everything labled chimes/minders. Despite all the research, I was unable to find many desired items in the menus, and coming back to the forum I can't find the exact location/names of how to modify the following, hoping some friendly voices might chime in and tell me specifically where to look:

*Disable chime – vehicle running with door open

*Disable seatbelt overview screen on gauge cluster

*When moving turn signal slightly, change from 3 blinker activations to 6

*Possible to have passenger running board come down but disable drivers? If not, has anyone physically unplugged one before?

*Disable, in reverse, "pedestrian/automatic braking turned off" warning

*Disable navigation/screen/app/settings lockout in motion (so passenger can change settings while vehicle is on the road). Android Auto also limits inputs now

*Don’t unfold mirrors when tailgate or other doors unlocked/opened, only unfold on driver door opening

*Remember last drive mode (Sport, Tow, etc)

*Disable auto wipers when transmission in neutral (car wash)


I understand some of these will not be an option, but I think many are and I just am not recognizing the verbage.

A few are probably impossible like:
passenger running board come down but disable drivers
Don’t unfold mirrors
Remember last drive mode
Disable auto wipers when transmission in neutral
