Which faults are you getting?
No resolution for me. Dealership said same thing can't replicate, 5 minute ride home and I get the adaptive cruise control message. I honestly get the feeling they are not even trying.
Same here...I picked up from dealer Friday after dealer couldn't replicate and on Saturday I started getting the same faults again...The dealer told me the next to likely steps were to replace some module and if that doesn't work they think it could be a wiring issue...They did open a case but Ford coporate hasn't provided any guidance yet... I guess I am back to the dealer for the third time on Monday...
I hope people read your post because I'm 100% positive this was my issue. Wanted to give an update to this thread if anyone still reads it. After 4 dealers, escalations with Ford support and Twitter, the last dealership agreed to replace my IPMA. The interesting part when I picked it up the service notes mentioned a loose connection. They still replaced the IPMA (probably since I've thrown huge fits over this), but makes me think that was the cause all along. By the way I've now gone over 2 weeks with no faults, no adaptive breaking not available messages and no camera issues. This use to happen almost daily for me, so I'm optimistic that my issues are resolved.I got the front camera fault at the dealership, then it went away on the long 100 mile drive home. The next day I started getting "front camera fault" and "pre collision assist inop" or something to that effect, about every 30 seconds. It was driving me mad. I went to a local dealer and they said they couldn't look at my truck until May 18.
I hooked up forscan and searched out the IPMA module. I ran a diagnostic on it, and it said "no front camera communication". I found the IPMA module (lower left hand side, where the parking brake would be if it were electronic), and pushed on the wire bundle that seemed really really tight. I ran the forscan IPMA diag again and got "all cameras, no communication". I relieved the tension on that bundle of wires and zip tied it in a better location, as originally all of the camera cables made a tight 90 degree bend into the IPMA. I re-ran diag and got zero faults. I have been driving a couple of weeks now with no faults of any kind. I am going to cancel my appt at the local dealer. Even though I wish I had it documented, I just don't care for Bubba to go tearing panels out or anything if it is working. I have seen dealers replace the windshield, camera, etc. for this fault and not fix it, so I don't want to go down that road if it's working for now.
I say all of that to you guys, because that IPMA runs everything related to the cameras, back up sensors, front sensors, radar, land keeping, forward collision, etc. and communicates with the cruise, ABS and many other systems. I would check those connectors on the IPMA and make sure all of the wires are properly seated inside the connectors themselves, test the ground, etc. I have a feeling the IPMA is the issue. I would have your dealer really focus on that module, and maybe just try resetting it via computer. Maybe this can help someone in the future. I have attached a couple of pictures from the manual to show the location and the connection numbers for the IPMA.
