Amber DRL via forscan?

[Sofa King]

@roket I'm not giving up. I found something new.

Left Turn signal
726-43-01 x*xx xxxx xx--
Change to 1 (Only DRL) or 4 (Turn signal and DRL)

Right Turn signal
726-43-01 xxx* xxxx xx--
Change to 1 (Only DRL) or 4 (Turn signal and DRL)

Those are the ones used in other fords (bronco) to make it work... however those are output circuits which are not used (disabled) since the output (power to the lights) comes from the LDCM's instead of the BCM.

That means the search for the holy grail is started again.. I'll be back

good spot, but i've tried these already. on something like a Bronco or Explorer, it would likely work, but the Mustang does not. though, i have only tried it on my 2024 Job 1. could you give it a try and report back?

Unfortunately I'm not with the stang at the moment, will be back on Sunday, but I think @Sofa King is right, since the values on our cars are also (0) and the lights are controlled by the light modules.

What I did find, is something new. And if this doesn't work, than I give up on this.

These lines are all zero's in our Mustangs, but you can do some costumizations it looks like.
And I think this might be the line to get it to work.

Change the value to (9).
If this works, same value applies for the LDCMB module.

Man, I want to try this so bad!

Anything that has "Ckt_Usage_Cfg" in the description appears to be an output to a physical wire... not saying there isn't something in the BCM, there are others that don't refer to ckt, like
"FrontTurn_Position_Lamps_Cfg"
"DRL_OnWithParkLampsOn_Cfg"

If this is not IT, than nothing is IT.

The other one below is not it, because I have that enabled from the factory, so it has a different purpose.
I checked all BCM, HCM, LDCMA lines right now, so the adress below is the only one we haven't tried yet.

726-71-03 x* --
Change the value from 0 to 1

I hope this does the trick!

The "DRL_OnWithParkLampsOn_Cfg" is enabled in my car too... my thought was to try it disabled???

Ah, I understand what you mean. Turning DRL off so that only the Amber Lights are on.
This setting might be good in combination with the one you previously mentioned.
FrontTurn_Position_Lamps_Cfg

The person who is going to test this can try enable FrontTurn_Position_Lamps_Cfg.
If this doesn't work, keep the value and try to disable DRL_OnWithParkLampsOn_Cfg.
If this still doesn't work, keep the value and disable FrontTurn_Position_Lamps_Cfg.

Tomorrow is Sunday, I can try it tomorrow afternoon.

We are gonna pop some bottles if we get this to work lol

from what i heard, someone in saudi arabia has gotten amber drls to work, but is charging an unknown amount for it, and it supposedly only works on 2024 Job 2. from the video i have seen, it also seems to affect the welcome lighting, at least on the GT and EB lighting schemes. that last part admittedly makes me suspicious if it really is a "program only change" like he claims, but i dont have any evidence on either end. i probably wont be trying to get in contact with them because i dont wish to support a country where someone like me can be executed for merely existing.

anyways, given that it supposedly works on Job 2 only and later, using the diagram from earlier it has to be one of four modules:
the BCM - there doesnt seem to be anything in here to control it that was added in job 2
the GWM - not likely, as Job 1 and Job 2 2024 seem to use the same software and hardware versions
the HCM - according to Livinitup, the only major differences are the addition of new settings for dynamic headlamp leveling and towing
the LDCMA/B - the software is different, but the hardware is the same. livinitup has the job 1 and 2 pages the exact same, so i will ask if this is an error

so now we need to find out what each module does
BCM does a lot of things
GWM really only allows modules on different networks to communicate
HCM does directly communicate with the headlight
LDCMA/B is literally mounted on the headlight and is apparently not listed in the wiring diagrams on its own. this module has three connectors on it, but i can only find wiring for the connector that goes into the headlight itself. i bet these do not exist because these wiring diagrams are for service use, and Ford probably expects any issues with the headlight's internal wiring to be solved with a new headlight. basically, we are SOL in terms of LDCM connector wiring diagrams

Oh man, If I have to stop talking to residents from a specific country because their politics and law makers are bad, than I should stop talking to every single person on this planet lol.

For me every human is the same, untill I find out that person is bad. I judge a person individually.

But anyways, we will find out how, sooner or later. Maybe that guy added wires from the turn signal to the DRL.
