Messed up the rear camera how?

Probably meant the 360 camera since he has a 22.

They're not denying you the CSP. They're denying your request to do other unrelated software updates. This directed by Ford and no dealer will do that.

I’ve never had a ford so I dunno what CSP even is. App said I should get it serviced so I tried and they said nah fam.

I want the update but I also want these alerts to go away lol

What is the difference between Bluecruise and adaptive cruise control with labe centering? Isn't that the same thing?

"BlueCruise uses a combination of technologies, including lane centering assist and adaptive cruise control, to enable hands-free driving."

They said if you don’t have issues they don’t update lol

It’s the front sensor and charge cord updates

Assuming you mean 24B56. I told my dealer that it was suppose to make BC work better. After having it done I realized that my BC was not working properly from the beginning and I assumed that’s how it worked. I had no sensor error messages. My BC could not make highway turns in the city without freaking out and was going to the “take control” screen. It also would not start moving in stop and go traffic if it had stopped and would leave huge gaps between the car in front in slow traffic.

It’s the small cam error. They tried correcting it numerous times once with me watching. They did the apim 360 cam configuration and it wouldn’t take.

Easy fix with FORScan, though.

It's sad that I know this by memory at this point.

Got my update while it was at the dealer's body shop getting finished up from a rear bumper repair. The dashcam footage from that accident is fairly epic - 50k views on Reddit. I'll create a new post with the video soon.

I bet the body shop folks were freaking out when my truck sounded like a swarm of bees in their shop for over an hour, lol.

Thanks! But shouldn’t the service department’s know this? A field service tech tried to fix it the 2nd time now it’s escalated to some engineer dude. I haven’t messed with forscan in years. I may have to break out the old windows laptop. Thanks again.

Really? An FSE didn't know ho to this and had to involve TAC?

There is a procedure in FDRS to correct this issue. I don't have a good answer as to why they need to involve an engineer for something the engineers already provided an easy fix for. What I can tell you as someone who has FDRS and FORScan, if I had to fix this on a truck, I would used FORScan to do it. By the time FDRS boots up, it would be fixed with FORScan.

I

Mine is installing now. Hopefully without issue. System says 83 mins

installed successfully on the first try. Perfect timing- I had a quick road trip and tested it out. Lane change worked great!

I haven’t messed with forscan in a few years. I’m letting my old windows laptop update now. I’m going to give it a try.

I don't understand how ford ignores their early 22 adopters/owners. We deserve all the updates and fixes first. We are the group who have subscription Blue cruise 1.0 that next year expires. Hello Ford 22 Lightnings deserve new OTA'S and new software first. The 22 owners paid a huge premium during covid for these trucks and deserve better!

If you think Ford is bad try owning an Audi. My 22 PHEV Q5 can’t even save radio presents (they constantly erase) and wireless CarPlay starts up with a black screen. Audi has been promising an update for three years and still nothing. When my car needs a software update Audi sends a message to the car to turn on the check engine light, so you think there is a problem with the car and have to make a service appointment with the dealership. Versus having OTA functionality.

Go ford. I’m pretty sure this is the first time an older MY get an better bluecrusie before the current MY

 

[Runaway Tractor]

When this update is applied through fdrs with a laptop, you have to have a small micronuclear reactor providing auxiliary 12v power to the truck. How is this update installing OTA without shore power? Did someone finally write some software that isn't moronic and keeps the DC-DC converter on?
