SOLVED: Enabling APIM VDL=RHD kills Pre-Collision Assist

[fordtruckman2003]

That is crazy when what should be an unrelated change causes that. Fun for you to attempt changing that in every module at same time and hopefully no other side effects. ?

The problem is your steering wheel is on the wrong side ??

While riding motorcycles on the huge island, which of course do not have RHD/LHD, I came to the personal opinion that they really should have rebelled against the British with the whole wrong side of the road thing.

Too late now though. ?

The due diligence our F150 brother on the other side of the world is required to do is daunting. Starting from just ordering the vehicle!

Nobody wants an F150 more.

Meanwhile, over here folks want a buyback for a SSN or a windshield wiper recall. ?

Yes @SilverPigeon is the pioneer with deep dive into the depths of Forscan to get his truck to work correctly.

But... but... I was told that forum signatures don't lie!! It's Ford's fault that they put 99.9999999% of steering wheels way over left where the driver can't reach ?

Before I try, I will make sure to not need the truck for two weeks and have a tray (tow) truck on standby ?........?

See @Fox146? @fordtruckman2003 knows what's right (the wheel in this case) ?

 

[fordtruckman2003]

Well, you could be like that guy in Poland and drive on the right side of road. ?

I wish we could fix Rafal's truck this easily ?, at least I got him speed sign recognition ?‍?

 

[Fox146]

Excellent stuff to see folks like yourself taking on the challenge of a “foreign “ vehicle and then helping others with that knowledge. I’m sure you’ll get your truck sorted out how you want it. And even if the wheel is on the wrong side at least your gauges are in the correct units ??

Hmpf... after adding back all my nice mods for the APIM (except VDL of course), IPMA and IPC from the FORScan sheet (pretty much all possible?), good old FCW go bye-bye. disconnect Battery with @HammaMan's brake pedal trick to save time... nup. Backed out all mods and battery cut again... nup.

I've had enough, FCW can go take a long jump off a short pier ?. Put all mods back INCLUDING VDL=RHD so I can reach the icons easily. All other PCA features like FDA work fine; all ACC functions work fine. If I run into an almost (or) stationary object while not looking where I'm going, I think I can accept fault for that ?

 

[fordtruckman2003]

It would make more sense for that to be in IPMA than the APIM.
Did you turn it off and on again under driver assistance settings?

Yep. You know, when I was a little tacker, my mother said to me "if you're naughty you'll go to bed with no dinner!"

I just took the 10mm socket out to Toppy and said "that's it!! You're going to bed with no power!!"

That'll learn her ?

 

[fordtruckman2003]

We all know the solution to this is just convert the truck to left side driving. ?

 

[SilverPigeon]

Just as well it's not a Bronco, or I'd never tame her ? (and I'd call "Charlton Heston" on your LHD fixation over the pond there, but my hands are not quite that cold yet ?)
My stubbornness will no doubt rise again ?
