Forscan and KOER + functional test?

[fabrizio]

Hi!

Does anyone use forscan to do a KOER test on lincoln ?
And
Can you do funcional test?

I would like to do a funcional test for Pressure control solenoids.

2001 Lincoln LS v8

Best regards!

I purchased a Forscan cable (USB) with the CAN switch, but I was never able to get it to work with the LS. I could get it to work with my Ranger but never tried function testing since everything on that car is fine.

• So you even can't read any parameter?
• connection does not work for you?
• which LS model do you own?
• Do you use forscan for phone or PC?

Its on a PC Windows 8.1. It keeps giving me "unable to connect, turn ignition switch on" even though the ignition switch is on.

Email their support, they are pretty responsive. They helped me with an advancetrac issue. It took a few days (and two file revisions) for them to develop the fix but it worked. I typically use blue tooth and android phone for logging and codes, but my laptop had no bluetooth so I used a wifi adapter and PC and their special temporary license. Have to have PC to run their files.

Forscan offers identical test.
