Title: Opening boot while the engine is running
Post by Baz on May 16^th, 2006, 7:15pm

While playing about with the FDS today, I found that it will turn on and off, the taxi feature of being able to open the boot while the engine is running....wasn't someone after being able to do this? takes 2 minutes!!

Ford Diagnostic system 2000 (FDS2000) Bought it on Ebay. It is what the Ford dealers had up until 2001 for diagnosing problems on Ford cars. A bit like an advanced OBD lead that lets you alter certain things on the car

Here's another thought for you Baz.

If you recall when you brought the interior mirror over to mine a few weeks ago we spoke about the air con default setting being "on" when starting up. Is that an option to change to default "off"

Or am I "off" on this one?

fill that boot fridge up for Harewood because I reckon you'll be non stop all day.

I'm in Essex Baz, but don't worry too much. I've learned to live with this particular disability now.

Baz
If I make it to Harewood then I think I may be in your queue.
I'd like Beep and flash on lock and if there is any way of programming the window modules to allow for one shot up from their own switches and any other usefull functions that exist.
Might need a list of what FDS can program!!
Don't worry if you haven't mastered the FDSbeast to well yet, as I am only on the Wirral so could travel.
