Forscan tips for 2023 Bronco ... Get the latest beta from Forscan

wcoleman · Feb 15, 2023

Just wanted to let you know that after my initial Forscan struggles I've figured it out -

For a 2023, get the latest beta from Forscan - not the latest on their side.

Next, get the OBDLink EX to interface with the PCM.

I now have all 8 G.O.A.T. modes, Bambi Lights, no more double honk.

Totally worth the effort! I got her on 2/24/22 (ordered 9/29/22) and I was in love then.

But Forscan puts it over the top! 4200 miles in 6 weeks thru 10 states, mostly highway (a great ride by the way) and now going to be focusing on off-road.

Which OBD II interface are you using, I have Auto Enginuity but thinking of getting this as well.

Despite the manuals and the videos, I am not feeling confident doing this. I will bring my laptop into the garage and end up with a $50K paperweight.

My Badlands Sasquatch is supposed to show up tomorrow. Hoping to pick it up Saturday

Don't worry, even if you do everything right you can still use it as a paperweight.

Well, the transmission, at least.

It's not the best paperweight, to be honest.

Don’t be afraid. Read up on it, watch the videos, it’s not hard.

I've already done mods to three other fellow Chicago Bronco folks. I'm happy to help you with yours using my Forscan license.
If it helps ease you, I've also performed similar CAN BUS modifications to modern Porsches (PIWIS and Durametric) and BMWs with no issues to date.

Ford's is one of the simpler interfaces (especially compared to BMWs).
And bricking is basically impossible because you can find your original codes online in your Ford.com profile. That's not something I've seen any other manufacturer make available to a general consumer/buyer.

DM me. Happy to help.
