FORScan is a software scanner for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles, designed to work over ELM327 and J2534 Pass-Thru compatible adapters
May 16, 2016 OBD2 Odometer Correct and Immobiliser Key Programming Tool for Ford. It can read and write into EEPROM file, it can read out immo code, and directly edit key position byte, then replace the original key to a new key, also it can read out and write into the synchronized bytes of instrument and engine, then directly synchronize without programming. All GASOLINE vehicle since 2001 and DIESEL vehicle since 2004 are COMPATIBLE even if they are not in the list. Find a vehicle make rapidly by using the search function in your web browser (CTRL + F) and for more details about the meaning of modes, check out our page OBD modes & PID. TOAD® is a complete professional OBD2 scan tool software for ELM327 interfaces that lets you perform powerful and comprehensive health and performance checks on your car - like never before possible. It will show you in precise detail what's going on inside different systems via visual, easy-to-understand customizable graphs. There are many OBD2 scanners, but does the FORScan somehow differ? Yes, because it is designed especially for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. So supports specific features of the manufacturer protocols, making the FORScan more powerful in work with these models than any regular OBD2 scanner. For example, FORScan can detect modules.
There are many OBD2 scanners, but does the FORScan somehow differ? Yes, because it is designed especially for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. So supports specific features of the manufacturer protocols, making the FORScan more powerful in work with these models than any regular OBD2 scanner.
For example, FORScan can detect modules which are not visible for regular OBD2 scanners, can show you trouble codes which are never displayed by OBD2 scanners, can show you PIDs which are not supported by any OBD2 scanner, run specific tests and service procedures. In other words, FORScan can do things that regular OBD2 scanners can not do.

Supported adapters :
Important note: almost all of adapters sold under 'ELM327' label are 'clones' (use not original ELM327 chip). In past few years 80% of them are 'bad' clones, and unfortunately this ratio grows. 'Bad' clones are not fully compatible with original ELM327 and will not work with FORScan. FORScan uses service level protocols and requires adapters that are fully compatible with original ELM327. Other software that uses standard OBDII protocol usually work with these adapters, so people usually don't understand the problem. The problem is that service protocols are more complex than regular OBDII ones and this is why it is physically impossible to make FORScan work using these devices. We recommend to obtain either original white-label adapters listed above (Scantool OBDLink, ELS27), or look for ELM327 marked as 'Ford Mazda FORScan' etc compatible - these are usually 'good' clones equipped with HS/MS CAN switch. But 'good' clones may have other problems (for example, USB adapters cannot work faster than on 38400 bps, CAN bus errors etc).
