360 cams/blind spot view/turn signal

[sallad71]

I have a '24 F150 XLT with 360 cams and the tow/haul package. I've seen pics of where people get the blind spot view on the center screen while towing and using the turn signal. Does anyone know how that's possible? It doesn't happen with my truck. Thanks!

I haven't done it but it looks like its a possible option via FORScan.

I have the same truck, bone stock. The blind spot camera display turns on automatically when the turn signal is on, and in tow/haul mode. Not sure if there is a setting for it or not.

Sorry - I meant when a trailer is connected, not just the tow/haul mode switch setting.

Mine works as you describe--with a trailer connected, turn signal activates camera on that side, displays on screen. I don't remember having to enable anything in settings, seems like it just worked. (2024 XLT)

Yes mine worked when the trailer is actually connected. I also have the pro trailer backup and hitch assist stuff. Did not have to enable it in forscan.

Have you "selected" the trailer? Not sure if that's necessary or not, just a thought.

Some people here have tried to get a trailer connector and plug in small bike rack brake light to "fake out" the truck into thinking it had a trailer. They/we set the trailer dimensions to the smallest (3 feet) and tried that.

I could never get it to work as the lights needed some resistance, or the truck did not acknowledge it had a trailer. The small LED lights did not work. I was going to try splicing out the LED's and wiring in some regular bulb lights to see if that worked, but never got around to it. It moved down on the priority list so it sits in a box now.

There is a big thread here somewhere with some info. Try searching Turn Signal lights and you may find it. Good luck.

Thanks for the replies. Mine must be broke.

You folks that have this and it works, Do you have tow mirrors or standard mirrors?

Works on my Raptor with Regular mirrors. Its possible that your software is not up to date.

Problem solved and it was a big goof on my part!

It's in the trucks settings and mine was turned off.

Features> Driver assistance> Trailer side view> toggle it on or off!

Thanks for the replies!
