Hands on steering wheel warning

[Quarktasche]

I was recently driving with a friend and got hit over and over and over again with this warning accompanied with annoying beeping. At some point it was all red and blinking. My hands were never off the wheel.
However, the warning never showed up when I was driving solo and my hands were in fact off the wheel.

Is that system really that bad? Is it possible to disable it with forscan? I really don't need to be lectured by my car about what I can or cannot do.

It has nothing to do with hands on steering wheel pressure. It has to do with movement.

You can't disable just the warning if you have the driving assist features enabled. You have to jog the wheel a few degrees. Bugs me too. 🫩

No, you cannot disable the "Keep Hands on Steering Wheel" safety prompt using FORScan, as it is baked deep into Ford's core safety modules and federal compliance programming.

I believe it has to do with weight on the steering wheel not movement. You can't lightly touch the wheel or hold it from the bottom.
