r/FORScan

So I purchased my vehicle on Thursday from Carmax and it’s still covered under the warranty. It has two recalls which Ford was able to address and fix one of them. The other is fixing the SYNC software.

The USB port and USB-C port in my center stack below the AC controls isn’t working and when the consultant from Ford came to look at the recall, he double checked the fuse and stated that the fuse was OK, but it was an error code of U2100 and is a gateway, module error, which is most likely causing the USB port, not to be accessed

On Google, when you look up the code, it states that initialization was not completed correctly.

Has anybody else had this issue with their car if it was new or preowned, and was that the issue that fixed it? Taking advantage of the 30 day warranty from Carmax, so I want to be sure that this is an opening a whole rabbit hole of errors.

Does anyone have a spreadsheet or list of FORScan codes/settings that are confirmed to work on the 2025.
Also curious what changes you guys have made and actually found useful.

​Got a 2012 Ford Escape. I have the original owner's manual with the factory 5-digit door code card inside, but typing it in does nothing.

​The dealership just told me "the keypad is broken," but I tested every single button (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 9/0) and every single one lights up the green backlight when pressed. So the buttons definitely work and aren't dead. The 7/8, 9/0 buttons to lock the car works.

​The previous owner did have wiring work done (mentioned a wiring overhaul) outside the dealer. My guess is either the SJB was swapped with a junkyard unit at some point, meaning the code on my card is wrong..

​I also for the life of me, cannot remove the center console after taking out the trim around the gear shifter.

​If I buy an OBD2 adapter with the HS/MS switch and hook it up to FORScan on a laptop, can FORScan pull the factory door code directly? Or am I trying to take out the center console the wrong way (am I missing any screws?)?

help me plz

Hi! Das Auto ist ein Ford Galaxy Mk2 2009 2.0 Flexifuel. Es fing an das die Klima nicht mehr ging. Als 1. Klimamittel auffüllen lassen. Werkstatt meinte geht immer noch nicht, entweder Druckschalter oder Kompressor kaputt. Also wurde erstmal der Druckschalter gewechselt. Klima geht immer noch nicht. Bevor wir nen teuren Kompressor wechseln lassen, hab ich erstmal selber nachgeguckt. Wenn ich die Lastkontakte von R3 bei laufendem Motor brücke läuft der Kompressor und es wird kalt. Hab herausgefunden, das die Steuerleitung vom Lüftersteuergerät gerne mal korrodiert und so war es auch. Ich konnte die Leitung mit einem Finger durchreißen und es war nur noch grünes Pulver drin, statt Kupferdraht. Hab das Stück erneuert und gegen Masse gemessen. Ca 12V. Ok. Aber der Kompressor startet immer noch nicht. Hat einer ne Idee warum R3 nicht schaltet? Das Relais selbst ist ok. Habs gegen das Hupenrelais getauscht und beide erfolgreich getester. Der Motor erhöht kurz die Drehzahl, wenn A/C gedrückt wird. Also das Kommando geht soweit vom Bedienteil im Navi durch.

Got a 2019 XLT and I'm about to get a forscan for some home diagnostics, what are some of the things y'all have done to your trucks?
