Drive Modes not changing

[dfitz]

When I press the drive modes button, it doesn't change on my 24 EB Lariat. Anyone else had this issue?

No drive mode problems on my XL, other than the button should be on one of the steering wheel stalks and not down on the console.

Do you mean the drive mode button that you turn, not press??? I am confused...

The button you push that switches drive modes from Normal, Eco, Slippery, etc.

That's a drive mode selector? First time I heard that.

someone posted a similar problem - and fix was a faulty A/C control panel module
not sure if related to your problem but could point Ford mechanic in the right direction

Very interesting that the HVAC module has anything to do with the drive mode selector. I did swap my HVAC module for one with the digital readouts over a month ago and thought everything was working fine.
I hadn't tried to change the drive modes until it rained and I wanted to see if I could tell a difference from Normal. Will have to see if swapping the modules back solves this.

The switch assembly is wired subordinate to the HVAC control model. So it's what's processing the inputs and then passing them on to the MS-CAN network.

Looks like reading through that other thread that they didn't find a way to change anything in FORScan. I will have to swap back to my original HVAC module if I want to change drive modes as the Bronco Sport module doesn't appear to support that.

It could be because the Bronco Sport uses an encoder dial to select drive modes.

I know I've seen ppl change the panel from an Escape, would that work better?

I put an Escape on in and problem was solved
