Tuner tried to turn bambi mode and, turn off the double honk on exit. Didn't work. Crazy as it worked on my early build '20 HEP and on the '19 Bullitt. The new ride was built late Oct, '20. I'm wondering if Ford made a software change.

Interested to hear this. It’s possible forescan doesn’t identify or have vehicles info available yet

It was crazy. He'd change the string just as before yet it would revert to the default settings on startup.

Makes me not want another mustang if I can’t change the codes that made it bearable for me.

Is someone doing it for you? Or is it you doing it. Not saying he doesn’t know what he’s doibg

but it’s possible the codes aren’t the same as before, so his codes aren’t taking. New codes could mean new values

Ford obviously made a running change in programing during the '20 MY. As mentioned, my early build HEP gave no issues with the Forescan edits. As my tuner paid for the app, he's going to delete and redownload the app.

You can’t use an app.
you gotta use the computer. Forescan lite doesn’t work

I bet that’s why it isn’t working.

He's been doing this for many years. He does a lot of F-150's and Explorers in addition to Mustangs

He is using a laptop. I was in error in calling it an app.

He is simply going to delete the program. Reload it and try again. There may be changes to compensate for what Ford has changed. My late build '20 he said most likely has software changes that will show up on the '21 MY vehicles.

They changed the string for the double horn honk sometime in 2020. Someone around here had the same problem and figured it out but I can't find it
