Bluecruise dilemma

[clb]

Hello, recently purchased 2025 f150. I am currently on 90 day BC trial.

My question is on the roads where BC is not available it uses the normal acc+lane centering. It works great however I noticed that I still get watch the road warning even in this mode on top of the keep the steering wheel alert which is really irritating.

My goal was to use the regular acc+lane centering when the subscription expires but when blue cruise expires will I still get the watch the road warning or is there way to disable the eye cameras altogether?

Good question.
And if you know this answer, do you know if I can turn off the obnoxious warning when I choose regular cruise control. It warns I am in regular cruise control not ACC.

Not through the menu system, but if you use forscan you can lie to the truck and tell it the driver monitoring camera doesn't exist, then it will stop tracking your eyes when using ACC and LCA.

(Disclaimer: This was tested on a 2021 F150 and a 2021 MachE, but chances are high it works on 2024+)

Disable Nanny Camera, Disable Hands Free, Enable Hands-On LCA:

Hi, I spent more time digging around and came across this post as well. I was holding back to try forscan as I am still getting acquainted but time may have come sooner. I dont mind the warnings for safety concerns but it does seem excessive and little bit counterintuitive because I am more conscious about it anticipating for the warning at that point might as well as drive my self without the nannies

You will still get the alarm unless you disable it with forscan. That said, I moved my seat 1/2" forward and up and it totally eliminated the alarm. It seems to have helped it see my eyes better.

Understood. Trial ends in February Its only been 3 weeks since taking delivery. I am used to lane centering but never infrared eye camera, always used to holding the wheel even with lane centering but eye thing is more difficult for me trying to stare straight with car driving it self i find it more difficult to focus letting go of the hands totally. Might tackle the forscan after subscription expires and change other parameters at once with the trial license lol
