Factory cruise control enabled on XL with Forscan and Escape steering wheel

[Joe Dittmar]

How did you get everything to write? I get an error when I try to write anything on version 2.3.44

I'm trying to figure this out also. I'm using the same version of forscan and obdlink ex and get an error when trying to write anything.

I don't think forscan has put the beta on their site yet. If you're currently trying, PM me your email and I'll forward the one they sent me. I had the same issues before they sent me it. Also, I can confirm that tapping the brakes shuts cruise off like normal

Sorry to be ignorant but I wondered if those of you who are very schooled in the acronyms and terms be willing for this old lady the full word to the various terms for example; what is ACC? Please I want to understand what's being discussed. Since I really want to see if the options is something I might want to do and/or learn more about it. (Ordered XLT with lux package)
I even noticed I don't like the gear/console cup holders between the driver and passager. Too easy to spill and it's poor placement in my opinion. Thanks everyone for all your thoughts and ideas!

IIRC [If I Recall Correctly] "ACC" means Adaptive Cruise Control. Which MOL [More Or Less] means it "adapts" its speed to the car in front of you to maintain the approximate same distance; or maybe a more safe distance.

Mine has copilot as well, it seems like a lot of people are finding that they have the same IPC numbers, my maverick was different, I got mine octobe 3rd, I'm not sure if maybe they changed it after they made a few trucks due to switches or something, but I had to change my IPC numbers and this is what worked.

Did you compare the firmware versions of the IPC modules? ForScan can show this. Maybe they updated the firmware for later builds.

I'm honestly clueless to how it works, I just emailed them and told them what was going on and they made me send my logs on and sent me a new version to try. Before 3 weeks ago I had never touched forscan

If you look on the "Modules" tab after connecting you should see a list of the modules.

In this list you should see the IPC and its firmware versions

Does the reprogramming void the Ford Factory Warranty?

I would find that very hard to believe, especially since they're letting rostra keep the warranty and that requires splicing.

Thank you for the acronym details!

 

[IdahoMaverickMom]

ACC is Adaptive Cruise Control. You can get the radar module and harness plug for it on ebay. Leads me to believe that if you know FORSCAN and figure out the wires that are already in the harness you may be able to get it working. My MachE has it with stop and go and it is the best in near gridlock traffic.

Thank you? I will be looking into all of these options so when I receive my Maverick so I can determine and prepare to update some of the great options every ones been sharing!

Has anyone ordered just the switch instead of the whole steering wheel? If so, could you let us know the Ford part number? Just trying to ensure I order the correct one.

I have finally got Cruise working on my XL. I'm not positive that you absolutely have to have both of the IPC inputs, however, I have working cruise, so I haven't dug into it too far. If anyone wants to challenge it, feel free to post the results!

Will this void warranty? I assume so...

My local dealer just told me as long as it's done right, it's not an issue.

I could be a bit unknowing on this, but.... where does one get that Escape steering wheel? A junkyard? Are they costly?

 

[bpcooper14]

I know there were a few available on e-bay but it looks like most of those have been snapped up (apparently the word is out). Junkyards may be a possibility
