    Shift and launch assist 2013 Focus ST

    Hi I flashed my 2013 Focus ST with a canned tune and read the car to see what they changed. The handheld had the option to disable "shift assist" and "launch assist." Comparing my stock file to what I pulled from the canned tune, I don't see anything that looks like it would effect this. The Torque based decel tables were left stock. Could support for tuning or enabling/disabling these features be added?

    EDIT: The tune did change "load switch" from 6 to 1 under Transmisson - General. Can't find any info on this though.

    If you e-mail your file to Eric, he can find and add the flags.

    Eric, Would the Load Switch setting under transmission have anything to do with this? I can send in the files if that would help.

    I tried this over the weekend. Changed Load Switch to 1, didn't notice any difference in the clutch out assist or the rev hang anticipating the next gear.

    Load Switch is not used on any modern vehicles as far as I'm aware.
    Did you email your map with rev hang/clutch assist to Eric so he can add the switches for you? That's the only way you'll get the ability to control them.

    Thanks for the confirmation.

    Just sent an email to support.

    Also wanted to thank you. I've been reading your posts here and on other forums about LSPI and the general logic of the ecoboost motors. As a hobbyist it's great to have access to this info.
