Rear Camera 2.8.3

[LaHerencia]

After my truck got this update, I now get a warning every time I start it; "Trailer Brake Module Fault". I have not had the trailer brake recall done. Any one have any ideas to try and solve this aside from the dealer. Most all the dealers will keep my truck for at least 2 weeks before they even look at it. Not something I really want to do. Would using Forscan to get cameras to work clear the fault? Thx

You’d need to go through the FDRS route and update it yourself but is pricey way. FORScan can’t update your module firmwares, only in FDRS. Your best bet will be the dealer and it shouldn’t take more than 30 mins to an hour, it’s a software module update.

Sent my info to the Ford rep on the site, waiting on their reply before I do anything with Forscan.

Generally all they'll do is call your dealer, which usually has no effect whatsoever.

Be sure to make a backup of any modules before doing the change.

I've been waiting for the update so my rear camera will work at speeds but its still not working. I updated to 2.8.3 last week and when I hit the rear camera I get the " vehicle in motion warning and it goes back to sync. If I hit it at speeds less than 5 and it will show the camera but once I hit 5 it goes away like its been for a year but when i go to 5mph again it shows the camera. (really annoying) with the option of a X in the top left corner to stop doing this.

I have forscan that I made a few changed like Bambi and double honk. Has anyone made the change with forscan and have a problem with 2.8.3? does your camera work at speeds still?

Truck is a Job 1 21 Powerboost 302a, without 360 camera, with max tow and intelligent tow tech.

Mine did the same thing after 2.8.3. It started working after BlueCruise kicked in on the next update or so.....be patient! I don't think they all follow the logic we see posted on OTAs.

I"m not sure i'm following what you are asking. My situation included Blue Cruise with all the cameras, so I'm guessing the process is not the same with the updates, etc.

Glare free headlights were included as part of the ‘21 builds for Lariat modes and up. However, they were only activated on Canadian builds. Through Forscan, I added the feature to my truck. They are like auto-dimming headlights except they only dim the areas of other vehicles and keep your brights everywhere else. The temp gauges modification via Forscan adds a digital number below the graphic for the engine and transmission temps. The glare free took more module changes than the temp gauges but both were easy to do.

Made the changes today in forscan, works great.

I have the same problem, I have an XLT 21 and I have the latest 3.x update that should give me cameras in motion and Alexa, but neither option is available on my truck. Any ideas? I would prefer not to use forscan.
