Welp, I may have won the honor of posting the first White Platinum, but I think I have another "honor" to attach my name too. She's gone. Had to be done.
This is the story of a man that just missed having a truck too much to keep his GT. Hard as I tried, I couldn't keep my sanity. Yes...
I'm still tracking this down, had the car since July, AZ weather turned "cold" and now in the mornings as I'm leaving the neighborhood, <20MPH, as I approach a turn and coast, there is a "whirring" or "whining" from what I think is the rear end. The sound definitely paces the speed of the car...
Too bad none of us will live to see the value of these cars go up. If one could set the value so far out of bounds as to "misrepresent" the miles on the odo...
FWIW I took my old ELM327 and added the switch to flip into MSCAN mode. It's WiFi, and it works fine for me. I'm only using it to flip bytes not real-time reading while driving.
I think what we really only need is to know the significance of each byte position in the string. The name of the memory address is just a bonus to make it easier for us to follow w/o the need for cross-referencing every address.
I deal with this stuff all day at work (for other stuff) but...
I was ready to place bets on the dig speedo being here. It even aligns with the F150 guys. But I am a bad gambler.
Spart Edit: I tried 720-07-01 xxx1 and got write fail error. Same for you?
The F150 guys documented this in byte format not the drop down screen but wrote "FORScan may not write these and give "invalid configuration" message. If so, you can't enable them"
Good thought. I'll try it later, but the Ford oval on power down is still OK. If it was some kind of joke and had an Escort or Pinto logo I'd totally keep it!
Tried the color change from the F150 sheet at 7D0-03-01 from my as built xxxx 0101 xxxx to xxxx x0x2 xxxx. Yes the colors change on the bottom icon bar active screen (phone, climate, settings, etc...) like the pic here shows but now when powering down I lost the Pony and in its place is the...
Hmm. I sent an email on the 23rd and was emailed back same day. Sounded like he was just waiting for me to place my order (which I'm still on the fence about).
Judging by dude's LinkedIn page he has another job or two. He didn't even list WMG but there were references to Mishimoto on there...
Gotcha. I disabled CP in SYNC and messed around with it - ehh. I think I'll stick with CP. I wonder if the guys working on as-built mods will find the option to get CP to work via BT. Impossible until they all get CP updates in their cars. Seems most are waiting for that still to roll out...
