I have a 2018 XL and do not have many of the modules that are on the spreadsheet. Is it because it is an 18 or because it is an XL? IPC for one is not present.

What adapter are you using? Sounds like you're using the adapter with the toggle switch and aren't seeing any of the MS-CAN modules.

Its an OBDLink LX. It's green. lol It does ask if it supports MS-Can when I open Forscan. I will say yes and see if that works.

You want the MX, not the LX

It's worked on several other trucks with no issues, just this one. If it don't, I guess I'll have to get another one.

Robbieg is right, that won't work. You'll only see a few modules with that one because the majority of the modules are on the MS-CAN.

See the "What You Need (#3)" section of the tutorial: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...gF1wxIqxY/edit

Using the values in the spreadsheet I changed it so my 12 volt would stay on. It did work at first but now it seems to be unreliable and turn off when the trucks accessory does.

Any updates on this or is it better to do the fuse trick instead of forscan for extending 12 volt power when the truck is turned off?
