Forscan won't connect after deleting the profile.

[BlownGP]

So doing this Mustang base to sync 3 swap as been a real pain in the ass on my brothers mustang....

Got everything installed, then didn't know we needed new ford usb cables which only have power and don't work with a thumb drive with music.

But the biggest problem is forscan won't connect.
It worked fine and I changed some settings in the APIM but only the APIM, BCM, PCM were the only modules showing.
Read on here about deleting the profile forscan will find all the modules.

Well did that and now it won't connect at all. Figured maybe the ELM adapter crapped out but my mom as a 2013 Explorer and it connects fine and shows all the modules.

So I'm at a loss here. Thank god the car runs and drives fine and almost everything works with Sync 3. Sync voice prompts don't work, and can't use bluetooth to make a call since the ACM still thinks it's using the 4.2 system.

Any ideas?
Thanks

I have the exact same problem on my F-150! I deleted my profile and now it won't connect to the vehicle, have you had any luck with this issue?

Thanks

does not recommend deleting the car profile (backup)
does not recommend using the old car profile
when scanning starts, press NO
when scanning is complete, press YES to save the profile
if you do not have a car battery charger then you can use the old profile for a quick connection to view the data and make a simple change
if you have change module configuration, always create a new car profile

Hi, I seen your post figured I'd ask .I've use forscan a few times .I installed sync 3 upgrade and the digital dash.. now I'm doing the 3.4 update and to get directions to show on digital dash when using android auto I want to turn on navigation repeater .my question is does it harm anything if you press no on both times asks about profile? Thanks Eric
