For consideration...

Although the 'spreadsheet' in circulation is a great resource, many times code changes can be problematic [ie proper functionality , differences in MY & software, file outdated, etc].

Found a seemingly more 'reliable' means to do 'As-Built' coding specific to VIN.
IMO, use of an AI tool to assist proven to be valuable and favorable as another resource/comparison.
Why & How:​
  • VIN specific coding
  • Identify and upload existing module(s) current state code [ie screenshots]
  • Modified code changes provided/recommended along with helpful explanations, benefits, risks etc
My experience thus far, code change outputs reliable -> error free, zero 'unwelcomed issues' encountered, each mod worked 1st time.

To-date, list of successful Forscan code mods completed with "AI assist" ...YMMV :wink:
  1. Glare-Free High Beams
  2. Trail Turn Assist
  3. Disable double honk
  4. Bambi mode
  5. Turbo boost gauge
  6. Tire temperature display
  7. Lane change = 5 flashes
  8. Disable seatbelt chimes
  9. Welcome lighting
  10. Turn signal volume
  11. DRL menu
  12. Auto Lock menu

Probed, experimented with a few AI tools with Forscan coding in-mind.

Found ChatGPt useful....
That said, as a subscriber.… get their ‘latest-greatest’ enhanced versions.

As an aside, found useful for VIN specific coding with my BMW M cars as well.
