Coding rear brake lights to flash

I have had some really good results with the coding I have attempted so far, with the information recieved from this site so big thanks to all that have helped and supplied info to me so far.
The brake lights are currently set to flash when applied in an emergency situation, but I would like to try and get the rear brake lights to flash when applied normally.
Has any one coded this or know the module and docing to apply to enable this function.
Thnaks in advance guys the

I believe you can change the "deceleration" mph in which the flashing/blinking lights activate.
For example, maybe the current setting will activate the blinking lights when the car decelerates at 15 mph per second, change that to 3 mph per second.

Thanks Day Laborer, will see if I can find something that would reflect that kind of thing.

Hi,

there are a few parameters which might be of interest to explore
I don't know if there's a minimum value to activate it etc

FRM->3050 FRM_AUSSENLICHT_PARAMETER, 30->ESS_ON_VERZ
(default for Europe (14 hex) 10 m/s2; default for US (10 hex) 8 m/s2)
This refers to deceleration speed

FRM->3050 FRM_AUSSENLICHT_PARAMETER, 30->ESS_GESCHW_SCHWELLE
(default for Europe Werte=32 (50 hex) default for US Werte=05 (5 hex))
This refers to the threshold speed for activation
