Found something else in the IPMA. Below is from a 2025 Mustang GT 401A automatic: Here is that same line on a 2025 401A manual: Assuming the LCA is lane centering assist and LKA is lane keep assist, I think it is worth a try at this point. There is also something about lane keeping...

The one I posted on post #65 is from a 401A vehicle.

I love this kind of stuff. Unfortunately, I don't have one of these cars myself to experiment with stuff, but I have learned a lot about these things dealing with issues my truck had and helping a lot of people on the F150, Lightning and Mach E forums. You'd be surprised how similar all these...

That's exactly what I do.

The battery pull won't hurt to try. Disconnect the negative cable and leave it unplug for 20 minutes to make sure everything de-energizes and rully resets. If the issue remains, then the ACM is bad.

Got your message, but responding here for the sake of the info being out there. As of today, your car started reporting some ACM codes that are 100% related to your issue. It looks like the ACM took a sh*t. I am also seeing a config related code in the ACM and IPC. I assume you made some...

Ouch. Do you have FORScan or any kind of code reader? If not and your car is connected to the Ford app, message me the VIN so I can pull the codes it is reporting to the cloud.

Factory reset will lose all settings, remove vehicle from Ford app, unpair the phone and erase all programed radio stations. Battery disconnect may remove some minor settings like mycolor, but almost everything will stay as it is. What is the issue? What are you trying to accomplish?

Was it after an OTA and if so, do you remember which one?

Attached is the ab data from a 2025 Mustang GT 401A automatic.

@robotninjasrule TJA does not have to be enabled for lane centering to work. TJA is the system that slows down for traffic and speeds up when it starts moving again. You definitely don't want that on a manual. It is a function of adaptive cruise control. The fact that it allowed you to turn the...

There is an element of luck associated with this. If the APIM you swapped in is on compatible software with the original one, the server may absorb the new APIM and updates to the Sync related modules will continue to work.

Maybe an update was hung up in the queue from when your car had the spinning pinwheel issue? I would need to check the OTA dashboard in PTS, but truth is, if it shows that on your screen, the update installed while you were driving and there's nothing to worry about.

You just need to reset the BMS when you install the a new battery. Aside from that, there is no science to it. That all changed with Sync 4. The newer tech is much more demanding on 12v batteries. The only way to truly test the battery's worthiness is by putting it on a machine that tests the...

The APIM is the biggest update in terms of file sizes.....they can be up to 6GB of data if it is a full APIM update with a new OS. APIM, GWM and TCU updates install while the vehicle is on and running. All other modules require the vehicle to be parked and inhibited.

Yes, your vehicle is connected to Ford's cloud via the TCU (telematics contol unit) which is basically a modem. The problem with Ford is that the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing and they have conflicting info about these things posted for their customers. Ford tells you that...

Yes. My 2021 F150 is well past 3/36 and is still getting updates. As far as when they will stop making updates for improvements, nobody knows. However, once that day comes, Ford will continue to send updates to address recalls and issues. It is more cost effective for them to fix those things...

7th gen Mustang owners should consider themselves lucky. Ford started OTA's on 2021 model year F150s, Mach E's and Broncos. Those owners were the guinea pigs for this stuff. The issues that those owners experienced were crazy. By the time these cars dropped, Ford had gotten MUCH better at this...

Aside from Tesla and Rivian, every manufacturer has the same problems with OTAs. It's not a Ford specific problem.

Oh, the mycolor settings could very well be affected. None of my Ford's have that, so not familiar with it. That message you are seeing is the details of the last OTA that was sent to your vehicle and that will stay there every time you check for updates until another update gets sent and...
