How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
Re: How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
2014 ford focus SAW CENTRAL CONFIGURATION one time and have not been able to find it again since in forscan to possible write it back to the car. I had to stop at one point and charge the battery because i got battery to low to complete test. Charged battery and was able to get car started. I guess I'm afraid to try and write this to car again but can someone give a little step by step guidance.
Re: How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
I have been using FORScan for about 4 months now with 5 different vehicles and started off with the recommended OHP adapter with the switch.
While it worked ok with non-CC vehicles, it could not read my 2016 CMAX central config consistently, It could read a 3013 Fiesta CC backup but not write. I also had and tried a BAFX ELM327 BT adapter but it worked even less.
After much research and worrying about wireless BT connection and knock-off FTDI 1170/2120 etc. I got a USB OBDlink EX.
It is much better and I have been able to read and write the CC much better now. FORScan was able to detect and upgrade the firmware on it.
https://www.amazon.com/OBDLink-EX-FORSc ... 081VQVD3F/
The cost was $50 USD for the EX vs $30 for the OHP but is worth the extra cost. Don't even bother with the OHP or wireless adapter.
Now if I could just get hyperflash turned off.
TLDR: if you want to do central config stuff, get a OBDLink EX USB adapter.

Re: How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
Hi,
I saw many people had he same problem as me, but no one replied so I don't know what is the solution. Please help
The BCMii Module configuration block 5 kept failing and I was not able to pass the configuration. (I would like to remove the speed limit and change the central door lock settings).
I am using Windows 10 64bit and ELM327 USB with Hs-Ms switch.
I want to use Forscan for a Ford Transit Jumbo 2.4TDI 2011.
Any idea what could be the problem?
Thanks for your time and help
Regards,
Alex

Re: How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
Hi all,
I bought an extended licence to Forscan but on my Focus IV SW 2.0TDCI 2019, I don't have access to the central configuration. Forscan never prompt any file (ab file or other). I can't add features

Re: How to program Central Configuration using FORScan
I know I'm late, but I made the same mistake: wrong VIN number, do not start with "WFO..." if it is "WF0...".metal_man wrote: Wed Sep 07, 2016 5:47 pm Hi Lollapalooza, I have read your guide here and am trying to do the same thing to my 2012 fiesta. Is it normal for the as built file to contain so little data as per picture??
