Heated Steering Wheel Icon on Screen (2021+) is an advanced change that rewards careful backups for 2021–2026 Ford F-150 trucks, applied with FORScan over an OBD-II adapter. Shows heated steering wheel control on the Sync 4/4A climate bar. It is fully reversible and typically takes about 10 minutes to write once your worksheet is in hand.
The change touches the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (SYNC) (APIM), and your F-Config worksheet lists all 3 as-built code rows with the module, address, and target value. Each row includes a blank for your original value so you can back up before writing changes and roll back later. Quick access to heated wheel from the home screen.

The DIY process from start to finish — backup-first and, where possible, reversible.

Cycle the ignition and verify
Turn the key off and back on, then confirm the change behaves as expected before moving on. If anything looks off, stop and compare against the originals you recorded.
Roll back anytime
Because Heated Steering Wheel Icon on Screen (2021+) is fully reversible, you can put every original value back later and return to stock whenever you want.
Compatible F-150 years
