Allscanner VXDIAG released Ford FDRS driver in VX Manager.
Installation is easy just like other drivers.
Select Ford FDRS driver
Install
Wait until installation is completed.
FDRS has always worked without FDRS driver. You can also use vxdiag vcx nano/vxdiag vcx se for Ford FDRS to program modules online. Just select VXDIAG J2534.
With the FDRS driver, it is faster.
Here comes the user review on VXDIAG VCX NANO Ford and Forscan/IDS software in July 2024.
FORScan - I used this app to test the connection to the car. you have to change the settings in the app to this device before it will work. ( this is how i knew it did talk to the car) but FORscan will not program the blank TCM
In VX Manager you will need to go to the Diagnostic tab at the top and install the Ford IDS drivers.
I had the most trouble getting this program to install - VCI_Software_1.0.1.18 but it was because i needed Java installed which is not on windows 10 systems. downloaded and installed Java runtime. after i did get this program to install, i uninstalled and reinstalled the Ford IDS drivers for the device. (this is when it started to work for me in IDS). It does work with ford ids, but it took a while to figure it out.
I used Ford IDS 130.06 to program a new TCM.
2 day IDS/FDRS Software License = 150.00 per license which i bought before i had it working so i had 2 days to get it figured out. Took me a long time to get it to work but i think it was because i could not get the VCI_Software installed. Ford IDS program at motorcraftservice. com."
