Guide For Focus Mk2/mk2.5 C-Max/kuga ~Elm 327 Cable And Ff2 Program

Is it not in the main menu under settings? I up graded my ROM file and cannot remember if it has disappeared or not but can check later.

Failing that via the ELM software in the HEC Module I believe you can change it there in Page 2 of the Configuration

No it has disappeared. Yeah know you can use the software to change it but would like it back in the car

If you could check that would be great pal.

The only other that been done to the car is that i have had a RS clutch fitted so the gearbox has been out .

So wondering if something been missed on refitting it

  • OK Chaps, This is the write-up I promised. As I said up-front, it’s a looonng post, but I’m not forcing it on anybody. It isn’t much of a gripping read in itself, I’d be the first to admit, but if any

  • James The first section of your guide is almost a mirror image of page one apart from more details on the wiring of the ELM327 , which is covered extensively in further post's , what you failed to pi

  • I agree Preee. In terms of constructive critisism, the guide is getting slowly out of date, but it still works to get people up to speed. However, if I get time, I will try and update it. Once done

anyone know what to turn on to get the steering setting on the clocks

seem to have lost them when updated the clocks

If you have lost the steering settings i have seen this before , try turning off HEC shift up.

Did you not make any backups of your config before you changed any settings ?

I also read it before. Unchecking the Eco Shift light box should solve the missing steering settings in the menu.

Which software John

for the elm,ive had to reset me laptop up.

For ELMConfig the direct link is on the first page , it's a link not a stored file on the forum , so it does work as i tried it early on.

Cool , remember to follow the golden rule ! , Save your configuration before you edit anything and keep the config files for each page safe , in case you ever need to go back to default.

Cheers will do. I usually have backups of my backups :)

yeah all sorted now, read it on a focus forum in malaysia about unticking the shift up which i did and its came back.

i have backups of all pages on the laptop, golden rule no 1.

not sure if you can help me on another issue, i enabled dds on my 59 plate forcus st and the option on the dash to set tyres which works fine but i got a flat before but never got a warning.

the things i enabled was

HEC config page 1 epb level1/ dds level 2/3 ticked

HEC config page 2 hec level 2/3 menu speedlock supression all ticked

BCM config dds focus facelift kuga ticked

is there anything i have missed

I have seen this before where it does not work so there may be a setting in the abs module that neess changing . Which I dont think elmconfig can do

Got my elm cable haven't modified it yet, but enabled radio display and the shift light, tried Eco mode but it didn't work guessing I need to do the update, tried the reverse sound and washer fluid level but the sound was annoying and I don't think I've got a sensor so disabled them both again.

Yes, for ECO mode you need to update.

The shift up light is the red up-arrow on the dash? And is the "eco mode" supposed to do?

it tells you how well you have been driving

Has anyone updated to the 509 ROM from a 203 Rom? I am just a little nervous that if I update mine from 203 to 509 that it may then not work with the other modules.
