I added global windows to my 23 via forscan. Works perfectly. Up and down via the unlock/lock switches. Remote start with the factory non-remote start fob too
I love having the Global up/down active on mine, too - but that's different from what this new feature is, and it does appear to need module programming through FDRS to add it.

Hope to add it when I have some free time after the 25th when I can get my Bronco connected to FDRS.

I got my 2022 BD four-door updated with this feature back in November. It was a DDM and PDM update and took just a few minutes at the dealership while I waited. It works great.

They can’t see if you have an update without hooking FDRS up to the vehicle.

I’m going in to Levittown Ford tomorrow to have the ProCal tune installed on 2023 OBX (May build). I just called to see if I could have this feature added. The service advisor had not heard about it but says I can speak to the tech tomorrow. Will see what happens.

Anyone have any updates from a dealership after their visit? I need to schedule an oil change and a recall repair. Want to know specifically what to ask for to enable this window drop on unlock if it's possible on a 22 model year. Thanks!

mobile service was able to put this update on my 22, Badlands.

technician or the service advisor didn't know about this.

ask for PDM and DDM modules update.

Tech didn’t know what I was talking about either. But the tune so far is a great addition.

Went in for basic service and recall today and asked about the PDM and DDM module updates and they said they have not performed any module updates on Broncos to date and weren't even aware of any updates.

UPDATE: The window down feature has been added to a 2022 Warthog. Just picked it up from the dealer today.

Press unlock, windows go down approximately 1/2”. Press lock, doors lock and then windows go back up.


Alright, I checked yesterday and there is an update in FDRS, which I assume is the update for the window feature we're all talking about.

New England is currently getting smacked in the face with a massive rain storm right now (those on the east coast will be familiar). And I don't have a garage, so for obvious reasons I'm going to wait until that passes before I run the update.

I assume @Cactus Jack will have gotten his Bronco back from the dealer before the rain stops, but in case he hasn't I'll let everyone know.

Oh!! Thanks for the update.

I completely forgot about this... apparently I drank enough over the Christmas holiday to wipe my memory. 😅

Glad Ford made it possible to program on existing Broncos. And now I have something to do this weekend.

So what do I ask the technician to do? Somehow I still think I’m going to get blank stares from the ford dealer.
