[QUOTE="Z7What, post: 1268398, member: 3262"] Forscan actually allows access into MORE modules than what Fords IDS system allows! It also allows more changes within those modules as well. Also a page or two back it was mentioned about changing tire sizes and how that affects the NAV position. It all had to do with the Dead Reckoning System our trucks have. The way its supposed to work is only if the NAV signal is lost the truck uses Dead Reckoning to help keep you in the correct location on the map. But for some reason the truck seams to use the NAV signal to say where your at when you first start the truck up but once you start moving it uses the Dead Reckoning over the NAV signal. I fixed the issue way before Forscan came out and even if you wanted to use Forscan to adjust the tire size, i would suggest fixing it so it doesnt use the wheel speed as the primary source of its location but in the end thats not how the system was designed. To fix it, just simply disconnect the Neg terminal on the battery for 15-20. Wayne [/QUOTE]
