One of the most common questions I get asked is how to setup Forscan using Autel Pasthru, It works with most passthru devices but because the Autel product is my best seller I thought best to show with this. 

First of all we need the relevant passthru drivers, the Autel PC Suite is available to download off our Downloads page here. 

You then need to buy your license and download the software off the Forscan website, https://forscan.org/download.html I recommend you buy the lifetime license which is 42Euros. 

Here you configure the cable type, I have tested with Autel, VCM2, Drewtech Cardaq and Tactrix. 

You then paste the license code which is emailed to you into the software to activate. 

Attached are some videos below from SY Diagnostics. 

​ Ford Motor Company Limited will be in due course implementing a mandatory Global Online system called Global Ford Diagnostic and Repair System (Global FDRS), and the existing FordEtis FDRS Online Applications will no longer be available.

However, in preparation of the Global FDRS activation, Ford Motor Company Ltd is requesting that all independent operators after their country’s activation date, will be required to download and install the Global FDRS software application onto their computer’s, by following the instructions set out in the attached document.
