    2015,16 F150 owners, how to adjust computer to activate features.

    Do you want your power tow mirrors to auto-fold when you lock truck ? Want to change the tire pressure that triggers TPMS alerts, want to activate navigation system ??? All you need is to be a pseudo techie, laptop with Bluetooth and the $80 ODBII adapter and a half hour. Check THIS out. Enjoy!

    Yes this is very good info... I have been using this and FORScan software on my truck a few times. I have disabled the double honk with the keyless system and you get out of the truck with the keyfob in your pocket then shut the door. I leave the truck running when I get to the camp site the first time that happen it scarred the you know what out of me... Ford does some very dumb things to these trucks but we have complete control to change how we want it.

    I have also changed the dash so you can see the real numbers over the Trans Temp and Engine Temp.

    Also made the change so I can have the brights, fogs, and Reg LED lights on together if I so desire. We call this Bambi Mode. LOL

    And Lastly turned on the buttons in the screen to have the AC/Heat control for the seats.

    Wish my truck was newer so I can do this. I always fold them and thought it should be automatic.
