Side cameras on with turn signal

[astrand1]

No, Ford released the IPMA update for the 22's last week and the 21's this week. No side loading required. FDRS is only needed.

Did you side load the IPMA update? I thought only '23 had it.

nope as stated it’s out now. I have a sub. To FDRS so updated that way.

Anyone have an idea when this IPMA update will be available for the 2021s via OTA? If ever….

Since I did this update and enabled the cameras with turn signals, I have been wishing I could use it without a trailer attached. Does anyone know of a way to make the truck think there's something attached when there's not? I have tried plugging in a lighted 4 prong tester into the trailer plug, but it doesn't think a trailer is attached. Even though the tester lights up when you put on a turn signal or press the brakes. There must be a way to trick it.

Thanks

You lose bluecruise with trailer attached so you have to choose.

I just want to be able to use it. So how do we trick it?

 

[HammaMan]

Needs enough resistance for the truck to see it -- resistors? Some LEDs don't eat enough current to acknowledge the trailer. Someone needs to test the cutoff amperage for registration. Some of those hitch red light things can trick it but I don't know.

 

[Ffdlt371]

Ok. I can start with that.

Yep and also lane centering as I found out. But still worth it.

I tried what you did to no avail, but as @HammaMan suggested maybe some old school filament style hitch lights, like what the wreckers put on the back of cars they are towing? You could toss them in the bed

APIM 7D0-02-03 xxxx x8xx xx-- IPMA 706-01-02 3xxx

I have a 23 Lariat 502A. I tried to make the above changes to enable the camera view on turn signals. I was able to make the APIM change, but was unable to make the IPMA change. I could not find the IPMA module on FORSCAN. I am a beginner at utilizing FORSCAN, and need a little. Thanks

When connecting to the vehicle, select "no" when it asks if you want to use a saved profile. This will force it to scan for all modules. Also make sure your Forscan is fully up to date.

It worked, thank you

I just got my truck back from service, where the had some software updates.. Is there anyone on here with access that could see if they updated my IPMA so I can enable this? I don't see why they wouldn't have just updated everything, but you never know..
