[QUOTE="MeFryRice, post: 1611671, member: 24425"] I looked through some of the Forscan threads on here but did not find the answer to the issue I've had come up since I've made some changes Tuesday night. For your knowledge, these are the changes I made using the Forscan app. [LIST] [*]Disable Auto Start/Stop. [*]Auto Fold Mirrors - Lincoln Style. [*]Global Window Open/Close [*]Disable Double Horn Honk [*]Disable Fake Engine Noise [*]Disable Doo-Doo-Doo on Startup [/LIST] Now that you're aware of what I've done, these are the two issues I've noticed since making these changes. As I'm pulling out of my driveway this morning on my way to work, I noticed the bed lights were on. I pulled over and try to turn them off with the switch located in the bed. They would not turn off. At this time, I noticed the bed light in the third brake light was also on so I pressed the switch inside the cabin but like the other bed lights, this light would not turn off. I even pressed and held the button but same results. It was too early for me to be diving into this so I looked like a ******* on my way to work this morning. As I'm pulling into our parking deck at work, I notice the passenger side low-beam is not working. WTF. I first tried turning the headlghts on/off but the low-beam never turned on. The amber function turned on so I know there is power at the headlight. When I lock the truck, I noticed the driver side headlight would start to dim but it wasn't in a linear sequence. I spent a few minutes looking over the truck before leaving work this afternoon. This is what I have learned so far during my quick initial diagnosis. The bed lights (two in the bed and one in the third brake light) stay on when the truck is in accessory mode or running. If I start the truck with the headlight switch in Auto mode, the passenger side headlight will not turn on. I was able to get the passenger side headlight to turn on if I have the headlight switch turned to the off position before starting the truck. Once the truck is started, I can then turn the switch to ON and the headlight will turn on. I was relieved to see the headlight turn on but now I have to figure out why it won't turn on if the headlight switch is in the Auto mode when I start the truck. After shutting off the truck, the passenger side headlight turns off immediately however, the driver side slowly dims but in a abrupt manner. Based on the changes I've made, I don't see how any of them would cause these new issues but I guess anything is possible. I'm going to start by reverting some of the modules back to the original file but not sure which one(s) I should do. I assume all of them? I'll take a video tomorrow to demonstrate the issues. Thank you for any feedback you can offer. [/QUOTE]
