Thanks. But no.
The link it gives doesn't work. Not does the one above.

It's like ford have made them either private, or they are broken.
At least they don't work for me.

Can someone who thinks it works please try to download that file and confirm if it works. Thanks.
I did confirm several posts up and actually downloaded that file you were looking for and have attached it to this post(see the attachment)
Download and Unzip it and copy the unzipped file(should end in .vbf) to the FORScan Calibrations Folder in your Documents Folder!

The link in the above FORScan artificial goes to the old Dealer Connection Site and since FORD ETIS/OASIS is being slowly moved and combined under Motorcraft.com the ETIS/Dealer Connection links are no longer working or are giving Login errors!
As I have an independent operator login at Ford ETIS I was notified nearly two years ago about this change and where the Login site and calibration files would be available after the change and what I would have to do to maintain my connection( Basicalliy Set up a new Independant Operator login at Motorcraft.com)!
I have since discovered that the method I have described A few posts above is not available in all countries(Member Graham17 advises the method I described a few post up does not work in England as the MotorCraft site Link for the UK does not have the Diagnostic Software Overview Link where you can input Calibration File Names) You can only Download the Software there and then you have to buy the One Year license to unlock it and additionally obtain(Purchase) a EU5 security accreditation in order to use certain functions(Including but not limited to PATS Programming)!

This may depend on the "Right to Repair Legislation" in your location! No idea about some of country link errors or Web loading errors except that the web site Move may be producing glitches!

Here in Canada we Have a "Right to Repair" law in most Provinces so that may be why the method I have described above works for me!

That all I have and I may be wrong about it all?

For those getting the errors on the DSFM site -AFTER- selecting your language/country, what I've found is simply accessing the link again will load the page correctly. I get this consistently when using that tool. Just an FYI.

The only way I could download a calibration file was to back out and then navigate to the calibration file page. I tried this previously without success, but it worked this time. So you may have to try several times. I'm using USA as the country.

Thanks All,
I'm still completely baffled by this.
Its still not letting me in.
Either here:
https://www.fordtechservice.dealerconne ... n=no_logon
or here:
https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Home/ ... %2FSupport
I've even tried using a VPN through canada, its not letting me into either.

Is there any chance someone could download a couple more files for me please.

Thanks

Thank You very much. And of course to everyone that contributes to this project.

I'm still confused as to why I can't get the files though. Could you please clarify which link you are using, and which region/language you are using. I'll then try one more time with a VPN.

Thanks

There are some "members" keep regurgitating the same garbage over and over and over and not even testing the copy and paste.
Here is one example:

A VPN is not required.
That may hold true if living in putins russia.
Ford service has and will keep changing access to proprietary files.

Go to https://www.motorcraftservice.com and choose your Region / Language.

The Calibration files link is at the bottom of the next page.

You're ALL welcome.

I have attempted to download firmware file ML34-14D067-AK, but the site keeps saying that the file does not exist.

FORScan also does not download the firmware file. This is an HCM update to fix auto-leveling headlamps and I need it for towing.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Sorry, I thought posting the file I needed was enough.

2022 F150 Platinum Powerboost 3.5TT with 10r80 Hybrid transmission in the USA.

Using a laptop with OBDLink EX.

No faults, no errors. FORScan just won’t download the update I have been told I need via two users on another F150 forum. They have FDRS and can see what is waiting for me. I apparently have 8 updates waiting, but the one I really need is for my HCM - right now the auto-leveling is backwards and has been confirmed by multiple people. There is an HCM firmware update AK that fixes this problem, but FORScan won’t download it or doesn’t see it.

Thank you.
