Is there a way to get the walk home lights to turn on when you unlock the car?

WOW ,Followed this thread for a long time!! Hello Preee AND everyone,Congratulations for your work on this forum.
I come from CHINA, sorry for my poor English.My car is FOCUS 2010 1.8AT,made in china ford.From 2009, CHINA FORD turn off display the “average fuel” on the focus panel board. SO, “average fuel”and “instant fuel” were all disappeared on our car.
By this guide, I select the “instant fuel” in FF2 or Elmconfig,but it didn’t take effect. I thought maybe the “average fuel”didn’t effect,it will make “instant fuel”invalid.
Please help me to show the “average fuel” ,in fact, I most need it!!! THX!!!

Perhaps, you are also FSC member (in Taiwan), we had to discussed this issue.......however we can't make it work...

Hi,Nicolas,You are right,I had been a member in FSC for serveral years,and I'm looking for help in FSC too.You know,Mr.EG know how to resolve this problem,but he didn't show the method yet. I didn't do remote distance increase after use FF2 or ELMConfig, even I don't know how to do it.
You are right,the ROM diffrent from FOCUS inTAIWAN. I found the ROM is 0303# on my car. Because the program was come from this BBS, so I followed to look for help. :D

Would it be possible to have the Power Folder mirrors auto-fold when locking the car and un-fold when un-locking the car - similar function to that on the new mk3?


Yes, it possible but not with ELMConfig. It's necessary to total reprogram door module. You can contact with DarkLeo on ffclub.ru, he is the author of a new firmware for DCU with auto-fold option.

Does anyone know here if reprogramming the PCM so you can activate the cruise control?
There's Chinese copies of IDS VCM and crackade versions of IDS. Has anyone done this?

OK.
dont know if its worth it. I think that a ford garage here in sweden take about 100-200 GBP to activate cruise control.
A VCM costs about: 200 GBP and maight not work.

Correct me if am wrong.

Well that would depend on if you then wanted to make money back by hiring out the VCM to do other cars and diagnostics.

f_ck! what made you believe that new wheel + ticks in HEC and GEM with elmconfig would give you CC???

I suggest to read more ;)




ps.
you need to enable CC also in PCM, but as for now, only IDS can do that, so go to Ford dealer

once I've helped a buddy to activate the shift up indicator with elm-ff2. the red dart apeared on the clocks but there was a side effect. the instant fuel have disappeared. I suggest you try to deactivate the shift up indicator and see if that works. regards
