ForSCAN error, after installing the Ford ProCal performance tune

[Hungy13]

Great to hear. Thx. I purchased through Lethal as well and used discount code for Bronco6G members. It was a great price. However I could have saved a few more bucks if I waited until Prez Day. Ah well. Looking forward to the smoother shifting.

Strange. I just made some Forscan changes yesterday, weeks after my ProCal install. No problems that I’m aware of. The connection worked, and the truck went through its usual cycle after “Write”. 2.7, four door, automatic, Badlands Sasquatch, 8/23 build date. ProCal installed in December.

Yep I just made the changes and no issues on my end. Same build date and installed the Tune this past Friday

I would guess your and PEGB's Forscan build version is newer than what the OP had issue with 7 months ago. If so it's a nice indicator that the vendor is pretty diligent with their updates.

Just making sure I understand this correctly. I just installed ProCal Tune. I was going to use Forscan for the first time this weekend. Will it work as expected or is that the situation that OP was referring to? Basically, if you use Forscan for the first time after the Tune install, is there an issue?

The “trick” is to flash to stock. Make the forscan change. Then flash back to the procal tune.

I have not had any issues using forscan after the FP tune. Just make sure your on a latter version of Forscan.

Curious, I was digging around on that site in my build, how does Ford's site already have my current Forscan changes? I've never had it at a dealer since the changes and haven't installed the pro cal yet.

Here are the stereo changes I made a few weeks ago already on Ford's site.

Over the air comms with Ford mothership, you’ve got a “connected” Bronco whether you allow those settings or not. BTW what were those stereo changes?

Makes sense, I was surprised they already had it pulled into their system without a visit in for service or repair.

I added a 3rd party stereo system so turned off the factory EQ and set to "speakers" front and and "speakers/sub" rear to get a flatter signal to my DSP amp.

If anyone in here has ForScan and the Ford performance tune with auto rev match enabled, please message me. I'm trying to get the AS BUILT data from all the modules from someone with this feature enabled to try again get it working again after Ford disabled it with the pro cal update.

At one point I was messing around in Forscan trying to enable Rev Matching before I got the tune. I was able to get it to show up in my settings menu (I forget under which tab) - but, it was grayed out and inaccessible.

I want to share something I learned recently about using ForSCAN AFTER you install the Ford Procal performance tune on your Bronco. It is based on a sample of one; me. This will be a little long, but I include details on how I resolved my issue.

What I learned:

• Any ForSCAN adjustments you made before installing the Ford ProCal tune will remain.
• Any ForSCAN adjustments in place when installing the Ford ProCal tune will be uploaded to the MotorcraftServices site as your current “As Built"
• ForSCAN will not be able to connect to your Bronco without entering a strategy/calibration name

The trick is you need to find out what the factory strategy/calibration is for your Bronco. Here is how I determined mine:

Step one – pull your "As Built" from Ford (using your VIN) from here: https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt

Step two – Use the “Download Fie” option to get everything in an XML file

Step three - open it with Notepad on your computer (you may have to look for "all files" when opening it and not just "txt" files. It ends in .ab)

Step five – Use the "Find" function (Ctrl-F) and look for “<NODEID>7E0”

Step six – You should have jumped to a section that looks like this:

<NODEID>7E0<F110>DSNB3A-12A650-AAD</F110><F111>MB3A-12B684-RA</F111><F113>MB3A-12A650-AYB</F113><F17F>1BE08WGT</F17F><F188>MB3A-14C204-DJC</F188><F18C>7835114012063</F18C><F190>1FMEE5DPXMLA86428</F190><F1E0>PXNB3A-12A650-AAD</F1E0></NODEID>

The value you are looking for is between the <F188> and </F188> delimiters. In my case, it is MB3A-14C204-DJC. This is what you will need in ForScan so it knows how to interpret the data coming from the PCM. You can Enter it as MB3A-14C204-DJC or MB3ADJC.

After that, ForScan works as normal.

Note: As I mentioned above, all my ForScan updates that were in place before doing the ProCal update are reflected in the download from the Ford Site. As an example, I had modified my panic button to require a double press and eliminated the double honk. Both of those changes are in the "As Built" downloaded. It looks like when you do the ProCal install, it copies your current state up to Ford, and it becomes your "As Built."

Any thoughts on this result: (I'm curous as to why the last set of characters does not include 3)?
I also ran my 2024 Bronco Raptor and it was perfectly aligned as you stated.

2024 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch

I do - 2024 Bronco Raptor.

I do - 2024 Bronco Raptor.

The rev match mentioned is for the manual transmission.
Your Raptor does not have it.
