Amber DRL via forscan?

[Eric0w]

Has anybody tried to play with forscan on the S650 yet?

I am wondering if there is a way to switch the DRL from white to amber on forscan. I know that it is possible on Explorers and Broncos.

Pics for attention. (With hazards on.)

From my reading, DRLs are supposed to be white to increase visibility of your car.

All the Ford Raptor vehicles, and the Mustang GTD have amber DRL. I think they look nice that way. Amber is also more visible than white in foggy or rainy conditions.

I don’t think FORScan supports 24s yet. I know FORScan lite can’t identify my car yet.

on January 2nd, Forscan added support for the 2024 Mustang. i just went out and tried tinkering with mine for nearly 2 hours and nothing i did worked. seems like we will have to work from scratch because the DRL on the 24s does not work like every other ford vehicle, probably because of the sequential indicators. i tried the Explorer, F-150, and Bronco methods and nothing. i did find one really weird option that turns off the front left/right marker light and tail light (except when using the brakes or indicator) though

i went ahead and looked deeper into this. based on what the wiring diagrams and workshop manual says, making the DRLs amber might mean aftermarket headlights. ill do a bit more experimenting tonight and see what i can do, but the answer does not look good

edit: 3 more hours of nothing. this is probably gonna be a hardware thing and not software

Almost wonder if this is related to that lighted grill issue, unless that has already been resolved to ready

lighted grille issue?

I’ve read about some lighting issues from folks that have modified the hardware. Although imo it should be unrelated and as simple as a light color setting.

The rtr grill messing with the drl's is what I believe he's referring to.

OP, is that your car in the pics? If so, it looks great!

I want to do this too.
I do welcome lighting for the headlights with forscan
