FORScan NA Ranger 6th Gen (2024+) Crowdsourced Spreadsheet

[RCMUSTANG]

Thanks

Sure, that works, but I mean something slightly different.
I’m looking for the windows to close automatically with a single normal press of the lock button, without having to press twice and keep holding it.

RA Ranger sells a programmer that enables exactly that function, so I’m trying to find out whether the same setting can be enabled manually with FORScan:

Not a Ford feature I've ever heard of.

Heya, I think you’re looking for ‘global close’ in the non-as built BCM module.

I enabled the "global close" today in FORScan while I was doing other stuff, just to see if it worked. So far... no. I'm wondering if there is another module I also need to touch?

Looking at the spreadsheet I might also need to touch the DDM and PDM (I only enabled the close in the BCM)

I'm pretty sure global close only had to do with being able to use the fob by hitting the button twice and holding it down on the second press. I've never heard of it automatically close just by locking.

 

[CaptAngry]

Yeah, I get that. I was trying to close via the fob.

I also enabled the DDM/PDM bit and enabled in the APIM menu too.

It is raining now so I'm not going out to test it now

It definitely works on my Australian my25. If I leave a window down and lock with the key fob they all close.
My memory is that there’s two options under the global close setting - ‘press and hold’ and ‘single press’. And I don’t remember enabling anything else to get it working.
But- I also have a faint memory that you might need to jump into the settings on the infotainment display to turn it on.
I’ll have a look later today. Something might have changed in the 18 months since I did it.

ok- I had a look. There’s ’global close’ which needs to be ‘remote’, and ‘global close mode’ that needs to be ‘single press’.
Let me know how you go!

So I can confirm my double-tap global open AND close now work

I like the idea of the single press, except then it is harder to leave windows cracked

Can you share were you had found this? I had this on my F350 its a great feature

Glad it worked!

If I want to leave a window cracked while locked then I can use the keyless locking by touching the door handle. The single press window close only happens when using the remote.

Perhaps someone has figured this out...
I see that USA RR asks, if you want to return to previous drive mode after-starting of the engine. Unfortunately EU RR does not do the same
It shows theprevious drive mode, like black truck when you start up the car, but still uses normal mode at start.

Once again the web interface is not uploading my pictures (in this case a screenshot)

Basically, I went to the "Features - TBD" sheet and set the DDM/PDM in the as-built, then enabled anything I could find in the APIM and BCM via the non as-built menus.

I am trying to solve "Return to previous drive mode" after restarting the engine.

I undestand this is standard in US RR, but unfortunately not so in EU RR.
Even more stupid is, that the drive mode goes always back to regular after restart, but 4WD setting not - I found myself today wondering, why the truck behaves so weird way in turns on tarmac...
It had 4H after driving with Baja mode on the field, after restart it kept 4H but drive mode went to regular

So I really want to activate it and see "Return to Sport?" pop-up in IPC.
What modules might beinvolved? Perhaps someone with US RR could be so kind and take Forscan screenshots of non-asbuilt module lists, so I could check if there is something differently?

You can pull the ab data from any vehicle with the VIN on Ford's Motorcraft website using the link below. Should be simple enough to find a VIN of a US based vehicle that's posted online for sale.

If what you're looking for is to enable the "return to sport" message on your truck, I would look through the IPC and APIM spreadsheets. On the 2025, it is possible the IPC is managed by the APIM and it does not have a seperate module for the cluster like the first-gen Sync 4 vehicles did.

Also, please note that a lot is defined by the vehicle type and market type when it comes to the APIM. There may not be a bit you can flip to enable that. In some cases, you'd have to change the country code and market type of the vehicle module to gain access to "missing" features.

Good luck.
