SJB Reprogramming to fix Hyper Flash (2008 Taurus)

Post by jamesu »

Hello,

Does anyone know if/how you can turn off the turn signal bulb detection in the SJB (Smart Junction Box) through ForScan? I'm working on a 2008 Ford Taurus and would like to use LED bulbs. I have no interest in using load resistors - trying to find the software fix.

Thanks!

Sorry about the long delay, life has been busy as of late.

I would try comparing your as built data with a 2007 Ford 500, why you ask?

Well the 500 is the predecessor to the 2008 Taurus but if the as built data is similar you can then pull the as built data for a 2007 Mercury MONTEGO which had LED tail lights as original equipment.

I don't know about the taurus but on my 2015 Flex the front bulb detection and the rear is 2 different as built changes.
