Problem with Lane Keeping ( Maybe ) Loud Clicking - Anyone Else ?

[kingranchero]

Not normal. A Lariat with LKA will make no noise. Does it feel like a mechanical clicking, or maybe coming from the audio system? Can you tell roughly where the noise is coming from?

It for sure is a mechanical clicking. Much louder than a normal relay sound. With lane keeping turned off, the wheel feedback set to off- it still loudly clicks and eventually the "hey you are tired - you need to pull over" alert will come on if I cross too many lines testing it so that seems baked into the safety features rather than dependent on the 360 lux package being turned on or off. It also clicks with the turn signals on or off - no difference. You do have to be going over 40 for it to click tho.

Yes I did and from what I see you have it on

Yes in the video, however I have done extensive testing with it on, off, settings disabled, under 40mph, over 40 mph, turn signals on, turn signals off - the video is more for an audio example ....

Thanks Dean ! I believe this just started - I don't remember hearing it the first 2500 miles ... but then again I try and keep it on the road lol

I've got right at 26,000 on mine, I haven't left the house yet this morning but inevitably will.

In the upper left of your information screen, the indicator turns orange as you cross the line and the click happens. In my Escape, if Lane-Keeping is turned off, it stays grey regardless of what I do. Are you certain it is turned off?

I've tested the crap out of this noise and the video is really to capture the sound of the click. You would get really bored watching 30 minutes of me driving back and forth over yellow lines hahahaha

Was just out and tested, with stereo off. Confirmed I do not have any clicking sound.
