Ok I need help. (Really sick of this)

[JJSnell]

I am REALLY getting sick of this parking aid sensor $__t.
I've turned off the rear and front beeping crap 3x this week and it's on again...
Was there an update that defaults this $__t after every 3rd drive or something? Is there a perma-fix in FDRS or ForScan?
I back into my driveway going to my shop (long driveway past gates) and it beeps and just now driving out of the driveway they beeped again cuz they see the gates.
I don't know why this parental Ford crap bothers me so much but I'm srsly about done with it. If I turn something off at my choice, then that should be the end of it until I change it back.
(No I have not gotten any updates this week.)
Serious advice only please. I don't want to ditch an otherwise perfect truck but this is bugging the crap out of me.

Not super related to this, but I never want my ambient lighting on and it constantly enables itself after I get back in the truck. I've just accepted the fact Ford requires me to live with their crappy ambient lighting.

I'm guessing an update sometime is messing with certain settings.

I think that can be turned off completely with ForScan...?
It's bad enough I got the PowerBoost backup chime going outside the truck and now this park aid sensor is just stupid.
Most of us grew up with no backup cameras or beepers and some cars didn't even have passenger side mirrors.
We should be able to select\deselect features in our cars and have them stay that way until we change it back. Shouldn't we?

<Bump>

Anyone? Any ideas? Happened again twice today.
@Jesse-Infotainment ? @rugedraw ?
I'd like to permanently disable in ForScan, if I can.

I'm pretty sure it can be turned off. I'd just control F on the forscan spreadsheet under the corresponding ipma tab and search the word park. I'll check it out tomorrow if you don't find anything.

Thanks Javi, I'm done for the day and will need to download the latest, mine is a few months old. I'll check tmrw.
Bigger Q I have is why is this happening and so often?
Literally twice today.

 

[rugedraw]

Idk. I never turn mine off. I just turn the volume down so it's quiet.

@JJSnell There are indeed a number of settings in the 2022 IPMA for configuring parking capabilities. However, i would first see if this APIM change does the job:

7D0-09-03

xxxx

xxxx

x*--

Custom Mode (CM) • Front Park Aid Long Term Disable (FPALTD) • Rear Park Aid Long Term Disable (RPALTD) • Park Aid Acessory Mode (PAAM)

How "long term" is long term I do not know. if you need help with the correct value, yell out ?
