Hi, I'm asking if it's possible to get FORScan to add flashing brake lights to the car's system during emergency braking?

If so, how do I do it?

My car is a Ford Focus, model year 2019.

Thanks for the information in advance.

The functionality has of course already been used in many car models before, without an EU regulation on the matter. The W221-generation S-Class introduced by Mercedes-Benz in 2005 was the first production car with brake lights flashing during emergency braking and turning on the hazard warning lights when the car stopped.

Forscan does not create or add features. Forscan can create an interface that changes as built data that controls features originally programmed in the firmware by Ford. You need Ford to have created a feature and then you need the firmware where it resides. If you know your model vehicle has the emergency brake lights on some version/trim package the you may be able to activate it.
