Let me know how this goes please. I haven’t had my truck back to the dealer again yet. They don’t don’t want to do the TSB because it was built after the affected date and like yours they claim nothing is wrong with it.
Ok. Thanks for letting me know. Now I just have to convince my dealer to do the TSB because they said it didn’t apply to my truck because it was built after June 14.
Oh ok. Sorry. Good to know. I didn’t know that’s what you meant. Thank you.
So now are your heated seats and steering wheel actually warm every time you get in it when it’s remote started? Right now if I remote start it you can’t tell if the steering wheel even came on and the seats are very...
Mine was built after the affected dates for that service bulletin. My heated steering wheel works fine while driving. It’s when the truck is remote started that the heated steering wheel and seats don’t work as they did in the previous generations.
Ya I agree. This can’t be how they were intended to work. Not once have my heated seats come on when it was remote started when it was less then -20. They should be coming on around 0 or something. I’m not impressed with the dealer saying it is what it is. I may end up taking it to another dealer.
The body control module. I think I ended up resetting all modules but after the body control module is when I thought the heated seats may have been working. But there has only been twice that I’ve been able to for sure say that they came on when I remote started it. I spoke to the dealer on it...
So the truck is at the dealer getting a few things fixed. As far as the heated seats and climate control they claim nothing is wrong with it. I don’t really like the answer they gave me. They said Ford changed the programming and the heated steering wheel and seats don’t come on as hot for...
If you’re last setting is max defrost the rear defrost will come on as well. Otherwise I haven’t seen that. Mine never comes on even when it should.
I disabled the rear brake assist with Forscan because that warning every single second it’s in reverse and not turned on is just retarded.
This morning I called Koch, Sherwood, Team Ford and Waterloo. Sherwood and Team Ford said they haven’t seen or heard of this issue yet. I’m still waiting...
Will do. Question, are you seats working at all with the remote start?
I’m actually booked in at Westlock since I’m half way between but I bought the truck at Koch and since they are a bigger dealer I might call them today and see if they have seen this issue yet. Westlock said they haven’t but...
The heated steering wheel still did not come on today. The rear window defrost didn’t come on, which means the wiper de-over wasn’t on either and the truck was covered with snow and it’s -22 C. The seats were on but after 15 minutes they weren’t as warm as they would be even if you drove the...
The heated seats and climate are 100% working now. The heated steering wheel was still not coming on so I reset the SCCM this morning. The heated steering wheel seemed to be operating better as I was driving to work this morning so I’m hoping it will as come on when I remote start it when I’m...
Using Forscan I reset a few modules, BCM, DSM, IPC and IPMA. At this point I’m not 100% sure because it wasn’t very cold when I tested it yesterday and the truck was only remote started for a few minutes before I had to jump in and go but I’m pretty sure the seat did feel warm when I jumped in...
I did check with forscan on the weekend, everything is enabled and should be working. I even disabled all remote start settings and then re-enabled it hopes it would reset something. It did not. Yesterday it was -15 Celsius and the heated seats abs steering wheel did not come on and the fan was...
Is that possible? It theory it’s a good idea but I just want them to work how they are supposed to. If it’s cold out heated seats and steering wheel turn on when remote started. If it’s hot out the ventilated seats come on. As far as I know saving it to the west memory isn’t an option and could...
One other thing, not sure about the climate control, but the lights for the heated seats don’t turn on until you push the start button regardless of whether the heated seats are on or not. Seems stupid, I know, but they have always been like that even if previous generations. The physical switch...
