Not sure where Forscan issues get posted.
We have 2 2025 explorer STs.
I did the amber DRL change in Forscan.
Changed the values according to the spreadsheet.

Neither explorer has fog lights now. I even changed the values back to the factory setting, and still no fog lights.

What the heck did I do here. Is there a fix.
I’ve not heard of this being an issue with this change.

Any help is appreciated.

Dumb question, but you’re pushing the button for fog lights right?

Yes. The icon is showing on the dash that they’re on.

And you were updating the stock file back on?

Did you know that the vehicle has to be in drive to see the amber DRL's?

Yes, I am aware of that. The ambers are working perfectly.

I did my homework before I changed those two lines.

For some reason, the changes seem to be hit and miss. Other owners have reported different issues as well.

Not sure about fogs when in auto but when I want the fogs with amber, I switch the headlights to mode 2.

Like you can’t load the backup files back on?

I tried but could not figure out how to do it. When I hit play for the BCM, an error occurs and it will not load. I read that I have to delete the profile on FORSCAN, let it load again then with internet, load the factory stuff back in. Supposed to be a radial button at the bottom to load as built. I will try it. Everything works on the vehicle which is strange. It is my only mode of transportation to work at the moment because of the snow. I am not bringing my Mustang out in the weather here lol!

Yeah, there is something wrong if it can't read the modules. After you rescan and the module config can be displayed, you would just load the old settings from the file saved and then write it to the car.
