What door chime do you disable?

To get a quiet startup experience I had to disable
-door ajar chime
-startup chime (do-do-do chime)
-seatbelt minder chime (Apparently it is not OK that I start the truck AND THEN buckle my seatbelt. I get a warning chime for this evil habit.)

After all that, I get no chimes when I start the truck. None. Quiet. Disabling all those chimes plus the double horn honk has bee the best Forscan mod I've done. I enjoy it every time I start the truck.

Only chimes I left enabled were safety issues and things that don't affect me, like "key not detected" and "door ajar with transmission not in park".

That's a pretty solid list. I added:
-parking lights as DRLs
-disable powerpoint timeout (for camping with our 12V fridge). I'm OK with this because I left the BMS on and didn't disable the auto start/stop via forscan. I disabled it with an inline harness.)
-Lincoln fold mirrors (it's really nice to be able to look at the truck and know it's locked because the mirrors are folded in)

And now considering adjusting the heated steering wheel to be a notch cooler. That thing will fry bacon.

I like the Lincoln fold mirrors! Seat/steering wheel cool and heat buttons on the Home Screen. And the temp gauge numerical number as a few of the best.

With parks as DRL's, do they turn on whenever you start the truck? Do you guys find the codes for this on the FORscan forum?

You mean you don’t have the spreadsheet?

No I didn't, I had bits and pieces from different places. Thank very much.

Thanks, I'm just glad I can finally get started with a few forscan things. My new laptop would not communicate with the truck. I'm using an old Dell I inherited when my brother passed, it worked great. I want to find a code to delete the remote tailgate, do you search on the F150 forum, the Forscan forum, or how do you find things?

Had no idea you were operating without the spreadsheet. That spreadsheet is the Forscan Bible. I recommend sticking to it without deviation.

Here's a good tutorial you should read and then watch the videos before doing your first mod. For my first couple mods I went step by step following the video in the tutorial.
