Overheated bed camera

[Stevie Wonder]

9/13/2024 Update: Connected the scan tool to the truck today to confirm no more DTC's after Tuesday's service. Found 2 codes being reported:

- PSCM U023A:00-28 Power Steering Control Module / Lost Communication with Image Processing Module A
- IPM-A B152E:55-2F Image Processing Module A / Rear Camera 2

I successfully erased the PSCM error, but the IPM-A error appears to be a "hard failure" as I cannot clear it.
Took it for a short test ride; no warnings in the instrument cluster and all cameras appear to be working, including the bed camera which was replaced this week.

Will check back with the dealership next week to see if this a non-issue that will go away on its own since there are no warning indicators in the instrument cluster, or if it needs another service visit.
Tune in again next week, same bat-time, same bat-channel

11/6/2024 Update: Took the truck to the dealership last week for a Battery Energy Control Module issue (Service Vehicle Soon / Wrench icon lit), so I asked them to check on the IPM-A/Rear Camera 2 error too.
From the Repair Order: "Ran the IMPA module PMI, Ran the LIN module initialization, Ran camera calibration road test."
I have scanned for DTC's a couple of times since the repair, and the IPM-A code has (so far) not come back.
As for the Power Steering Module "Lost communication" error (see 9/13 post), the Service Advisor said that in his experience, the F-150 Lightnings tend to have various random "Lost Comm" errors between different modules, due to the 40 to 50 modules all constantly trying to keep track of one another.

I do recall seeing a ton of errors from forscan but no lights on my dash.

Does anyone know if the replacement camera is actually different? Was there a bad lot of cameras or are all of our cameras subject to heat exhaustion? I park under cover in PA, so have not experienced this issue. I’m also well out of the factory warranty, so is my camera going to fail during a summer trip to New Mexico? This seems like it should be a CSP if it effects all of the cameras.
