DBDRVN Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Any way to disable the instrument cluster "pre" boot up upon opening of doors on 2016 Ford Edge? Every time you open the door the cluster lights up and pre-boots for lack of a better term along with the 12 outlets...I just want my dome lights to come on. Any suggestions?

Groundpounder Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Why do you want to do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBDRVN Posted October 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 I am in and out of the vehicle constantly. Getting samples out etc. just to name one example. Also the car is switching on accessory power for devices I use for work. on and off, on and off, on and off I just wish it would not waist its time booting up every time I open the door or hatch.

I wouldn't worry about it, most of the time the beeps and boops are smarter than we are. I'd be worried about screwing something up if I tried to change something as complex as that.

Tjm623 Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 I believe there is a way using ForScan. I'm on mobile and don't have a lot of a time but there is a spreadsheet on f150 forum. Just search forscan f150 on google and it should take u to the thread and spreadsheet is in first post. I swear I saw an IPC code that disables the ford blue splash screen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjm623 Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Ok I had enough time to find the spreadsheet and I was right. There is a way. In IPC module line 720-07-01 change the values to this "xxxx xxxx Bxxx". Only thing that needs to be changed is first digit in third box where it has the letter "B" The description for this is literally what you are asking: IPC Quick Boot (No Ford animation shows on cluster) IPC = instrument panel cluster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 All that will do is turn off the animation, it won't stop it from booting up or switching the power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBDRVN Posted November 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Which brings up another question now that you mention it. I wonder if there a way to change the splash screen image? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrcold Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Not on the '16s with Sync 3, but you could on the 15's with MFT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjm623 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 You can change the 16 to the Lincoln splash screen. As far as I know that is it. Not sure why you'd want your ford saying Lincoln at start though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
