Default ODB-II Scanner?

In the Expedition I owned prior to the Defender I was able to used an ODB-II scanner to not only see data but also change settings (I used for things like enabling fog lights and high-beams to work simultaneously).

I would really like for my Defender to default to Eco Mode rather than Comfort Mode, but there is no setting for that in the head unit. Any chance there’s an ODB-II scanner that will give me access to hidden feature settings?

If you have terrain response 2 and you set it (using the touch screen) to AUTO, it will not (under normal conditions) reset to the dreaded (useless) Comfort setting.

Found a post asking a similar question and found this…

Gap Diagnostic IID Tool

Unfortunately, a ‘20+ Defender version is not yet available.

They're good. I'll be in line to buy it once it is.

Agreed GAP is top notch.

If there is anyone in the Augusta GA area I have a Launch tool that I have success with on the newer trucks and the Defender is in its coverage. I'd love to plug in and see what it can find in there
