Apologies for cross-posting this, but I need to make sure people see it so I can get an answer.
There is much interest in enabling line lock through OBD/ForScan. I have successfully done my car and one other, but this morning I tried it on a 2017 car with Sync 3. Even though I've successfully updated both settings (one in ABS, one in IPC), the option appears in the TrackApps menu, but it is greyed out.
Does anyone know anything about enabling link lock in 2017/Sync 3 cars?

Hi Richard I have a 17 GT with sync 3 and had line lock enabled by a forum member and noticed the same thing. I'm not with the Mustang at the moment but will check this when I get home. I think with ignition on I noticed it was grey not highlighted as you say however with the motor running it was illuminated like the other options!

Yeah, that's what we've noticed. It seemed to come right of its own accord. All sorted now and working sweet

The experience we had the other day was that we did the changes through FORScan and then it stubbornly stayed greyed out. In the driveway we tried putting it in Track mode, turning of traction control etc, all to no avail. I reset the settings and did them again and that made no difference. We thought it was something to do with more recent cars, so we stopped at that point and the guy left my house.
About 20 minutes later, after he'd driven for a bit and stopped and started a couple of times, he noticed that it was no longer greyed out. Unfortunately that's not very helpful.
Also, later the same day I had another 2017 car in the driveway and that worked straight away. Frustrating, because it doesnt illuminate anything.

Hi guys, I need help on this topic also. I have a 2017 Sync3 car and I am having trouble enabling this feature.? I have accessed the ABS and IPC modules using Forscan but there is no "line lock" description box to tick.? Does it have another name hidden within these modules.? Also, there is no Line Lock function "greyed out" on the dash display..?? Any assistance on this.. Thanks

If you cant see the options using your device, then I wonder if your device is reading the OBD properly (or completely). I have an OBDlink MX. I know will read everything. Other devices (lower cost etc) will not read all settings, if that makes sense.

Its reading all fine, so wht changes do you make in forscan to activate line lock.

You need to enable line lock in ABS module and the IPC module with the forscan.
