That letter says nothing about Ford putting them back on the vehicle. I would not get your hopes up. If the parts we not available my dealership shouldn't have been able to order them, which is exactly what I had then do.
There is no letter yet and his statement about the steering wheel is not accurate. The entire part required for the heating steering is part of the signal stalk. It has to be replaced with a new SCCM module and the correct electrical components. Even then something is still missing as I have...
I replaced the entire turn signal mechanism and clock spring with the part number that actually includes the module and elements that make the heat work. The coil is already in my steering as you can see where the harness is plugged into a part that has no receiving pins on it. The new part...
I have retrofitted my lightning with the heated steering wheel part but cannot get it to turn on. I have verified and updated all of the module settings from a Platinum that has the heated steering wheel but it still won't turn on. The button is on the screen, I have no DTCs and I have no...
I have them on two ICE F150's, my current lighting and two of my wives expeditions. We live in Kansas City where the ice can be hard on vehicles. No issues ever with any of them and I do nothing to them as they are under warranty.
This is a true statement. I forced the deployable with my dealer on my order back in June of 2022 and my 23 platinum was the first production run with deployable boards and the cost was like $300. I agree the aftermarket boards are good but you cant deploy them from in the cabin which I like...
It won't let me remove the 1C, says it is a bad value. If I turn the heating off in that module it changes the value to 0C so it obviously wants something there.
I hadn't made any changes to the APIM As Built configuration prior to this effort that I am aware of so I had no reason to save it beforehand. I will see if I can return the settings back to AS Built. Thank you
You should know before you consider that option that you cannot just throw them on. The entire drivers seat has to be replaced in order to get the correct modules that allow the boards to function.
I tried that it's not letting me manually over ride APIM 7D0-02-01 8616-5A0A-421C to 8616-4A0A-421C. That would be the disabled setting. Hoping that a re-write of the entire APIM module would work?
Can someone with a 22/23 Lightning Platinum that didn't have heated steering copy their original APIM module settings and send them to me please? Or perhaps let me know where I could get a hold of those original settings. I have replaced the heating steering stalk and activated all of the...
I have tried everything. I've downloaded the as built from another platinum with all of the heated steering wheel settings. Everything matches but the button just won't turn on. I also seem to have an issue with the APIM module selection. It is reading Enabled and it won't let me disable it...
Have you figured this out? I just switched out the Stalk on my Platinum and have everything changed, the button appears but it won't turn on. I think my issue lies within the HVAC setting.
