DIY success: installing Pro Adaptive Cruise and Lane Centering (and frunk beeper)

[Brons2]

We have a Premium Mach-E in addition to our '24 Lightning XLT we just got, so I can tell you, the nagging warning to place your hands on the wheel is reset by steering wheel input torque. If you give it just a slight tug to the side, it will reset. It doesn't have to be enough that the passengers can feel it. And if a particular passenger feels it, she will complain that I need to stop doing that. LOL.

I fight this fight a lot on nearby roads when driving wifey's Mach-E. Of course on the freeway if there's not a lot of traffic I just use BlueCruise, our Mach-E came with a 3 year trial of it. It's a 2023 that we drove off the lot in June 2024.

I added Adaptive Cruise Control(Radar and wiring harness) with Lane Centering to my 22 Pro today. I also disabled the frunk 'beeper'...nice!

I'll hand creds to Brotato and others at https://www.f150lightningforum.com/...keep-alert-to-2022-f-150-lightning-xlt.14870/ for others finding success ...

I updated my own programming PAGES(Attached) for an easier way to look at how the code thru Forscan, my first time, too.... you may need to hunt and peck around the Forscan screen to get to the module you are looking for, etc.


After ordering the parts from a local Ford dealer, and while paying $160 more than other options, I felt that using 'direct from Ford' parts might be best: total $760

I started this morning at 7am, and had the truck operational with the additions at 12pm lunchtime. I took the last programming steps, while running around 45 to 60 for a few miles, without the bumper, and other un-needed parts, until I knew it was a success.


Always nice to see a 'small' project, but with such great outcomes, a success.

I don’t know how y’all did this. This is just crazy. I’ve been trying to do different settings and it worked for a minute and then it went back to the adaptive whatever it was on the front screen with the orange line through it.
