Changed to Silent Mode, easy with the latest version of Forscan

While in the module I saw a few other things that caught my eye.

Park Aid Menu Front & Rear

Off Road Gauge.

Do you know what they do Stewart?

I put them all in there, so yes.

Turn parkaid menu front or rear on off. Disregard it, you have the hard button near the gear stick.
Off road gauge. Enable it and you will have an additional gauge in the area where your digital speedo is.

I Enabled the Off Road Gauge and it didn't ask for a key off/on but I did it anyway.

Ran Forscan again and sure enough, back to Disabled

If it didn't ask for key off/on then it didn't write anyway. It will only ask this on a successful write. Look up at the log tab for confirmation.

what module is responsible for the angle display? can we retrofit the everest module into a ranger?

Hi everyone,
I enabled the off road gauge.
The steering wheel angle indicator works, the transmission graphics (including rear differential lock).
Unfortunately, the two inclinometers do not work: even when the pick-up is inclined the inclinometers are at 0 °.
Can someone help me please?

We all the same problem. I believe it's because the Ranger does not have the inclinometer sensor required.

There are numerous modules involved although it is all to do with the firmware that is in these modules. I will not release anything at this point in time as the modules involved brick way to easily.

Thanks Stewart, its such a cool feature, i cant beleive they didnt include it in the ranger but did in the everest.

Also power delivery gauge just claims its in 4wd all the time so im guessing thats just coded for awd systems not the 2-4 system the ranger runs.

Ford escape awd i have as a loan car at the moment has power delivery gauge.

Everest runs 2 additional modules, different transfer case and also the PCM firmware may come into play with it also. The 2 additional modules have nothing to do with pitch roll though.
