Ford F150 Pre Collision Assist Not Available
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- In this video we show our diagnosis and repair of a 2022 Ford F150 that's displaying a Pre-Collision Assist Not Available message. The code in the cruise control module was B142E - forward looing sensor horizontal alignment. The alignment offset PID in the cruise control module was reading over 5 degrees off and after trying to recalibrate the cruise control radar sensor the cruise control module had to be replaced to repair the vehicle.
Great info!!! Thanks so much for sharing. Shortly after installing an aftermarket Raptor bumper and fabricating a mount for the sensor I started geting the error code after seen your video and following the steps I was able to recalibrate the sensor and get the error cleared out. Again, thank you so much for sharing.
You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
Did you also get a cruise control error?
I had a similar problem on my 2023 F-150 Tremor which I purchased new off the lot of an out-of-state dealer. My local dealer determined that the wiring connection at one of the sensors was not properly plugged in and I assume that was done at the factory. IMO that problem should have been discovered during dealer prep but was never addressed by the selling dealer who delivered the truck to my home from their state. I also found other things like factory assembly decals on the seat backs and pieces of tape on the power sliding rear window that should have been removed during dealer prep but were not. Dealer prep was either non-existent or shoddy at best. A more serious problem was that I also found body damage that the selling dealer eventually claimed was done by the company that shipped the truck to the dealership whom I assume the selling dealer ultimately filed a claim against. My local dealer also did the body repairs at no cost to me or my insurance company. However, if the damage was done before the selling dealer received the truck why didn't they repair it during dealer prep? BTW, the truck was built seven months before I purchased it and was delivered to me after dark which I believe was done intentionally so that I would not see the condition it was in. Before I purchased it I also viewed photos of the truck that were taken on the dealership lot and posted on their website and none of the body damage was visible in those photos. My original plan was to drive the 500 miles to the dealership to pick up the truck and drop off my trade until the dealer offered to deliver it for free. I wonder why (sarcasm)? Total BS from the selling dealer in Valparaiso, IN. Perfect example of why customers hate the whole buying experience and don't trust dealerships.
Sounds like several people didn’t do their jobs properly. When vehicles are delivered to the dealer there’s suppose to be an immediate inspection that notes any damage and the delivery driver and a dealer representative have to sign off on it. If the dealer screws up and misses damage they generally get stuck covering it out of pocket. Pre delivery includes removing all the stickers and a test drive making sure everything works properly. It sounds like that wasn’t even done.
Exactly. However, I don't believe for a second that the truck was damaged during delivery to the dealership. They came up with that story when questioned by my local dealership after I took it there for an estimate. I believe the body damage was done either during a test drive by another customer or by a dealership employee. I was also lied to multiple times by the delivery driver who I was told was an "F-150 specialist". In other words, a salesman. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he is also the one who did the damage. Their story about it being damaged when they got it was, in my opinion, just a coverup. Too much evidence to the contrary. I will never know the real truth but the bottom line is that my local dealer, Spitzer Ford of DuBois, PA, did an awesome job of fixing everything and it didn't cost me anything but a lot of time and aggravation. To the selling dealer's credit, they did sell the truck at a decent discount and they gave me top dollar for my trade. However, none of that justifies the condition of the truck as delivered.
I had a tremor skid plate installed and now my pre collison light is on i think they didnt reconnect it how should i fix it does it need calibration. Maybe the wire isnt long enough also how can i remedy this?
Hello, I have the same problem with my 2012 Taurus Limited. Should I change the device?
Hi, I got a F150 where after a front crash the bumper and the cruise control module were replaced. After repairs done the Cruise adaptative control work fine but the collision warning does not, even the truck dashboard display does not show any pop-up malfunction warning. Everyting looks ok and working fine, but in reality the collision warning does not work. The way I use to check it is driving in low speed against a parked or stopped vehicle or anything on the street and no collision lights and sounds go off. So, what you think? . Thank you
I got this message when I took off my rear blocks and I also have a 2.5 leveling kit and I tried aligning the camera but it’s not doing anything in for scan
Check the horizontal alignment with a level. It’s probably tipped up too much if you lowered the back and raised the front.
So I run the calibration test and it completes, 100% and the message goes away, but my offset is still at -3°.. is my module fucked or should I try a reset of the module and not just a calibration or what
It’s done I would replace it
I have 2023 5.0 f150 XL , and this warning is appearing some times , I also noticed that I don't get any warning when I drive very closely to the car in front of me , the truck is new it has how about 1000 mile on it , also I have noticed that warning light when I got the car from the dealership but it disappears before I can take a picture of it
There’s two or three different systems depending on how the truck is equipped. Some systems use only a camera at the top of the windshield to recognize objects in the road. Others use a combination of the CCM radar sensor and camera. This time of year if you’re any where with winter conditions be aware that snow, ice or condensation on the windshield, camera lens or front bumper can cause a “Pre-Collision Assist Not Available” message. Even very snowy roads can cause this. The camera has a lot of trouble recognizing things when everything is white. In those cases it’s really just an informational message to let you know the system isn’t operating at that time.
@@CarShopTalk thank you very much, I checked and I found that I only have the camera system, no radar sensors.
I tested it and it works on " high sensitivity mode " but i got the alert when I'm very close to the car in front of me.
I also noticed that it can see people better than cars.
Also it can see the cars that are on my right side when I bypass them better than the cars on front of me
Im having an issue where my ACC shows a “phantom” car infront of me and slows down to a stop. Aftermarket bumper installed, any ideas if this will fix it?
Have you checked that it’s vertically level? There’s nothing in front of it right?
I hope you see this and maybe have some advice to lend… I have done every AsBuilt check in the modules I could, I am at .30°. When I do the CCM calibration it never leaves 0% and it’s driving me crazy. Got all the different malfunctions after doing tires / 3.5” level - 2021 F250 Platinum. Help!!!! 😂
It’s not tipped down or up is it? If the vertical alignments off to far off it won’t ever go past 0 when you drive it. Nothing is mounted in front of it or obstructing it? We do lifts and tires all the time. It shouldn’t cause any issues.
@@CarShopTalk I did the tires and suspension, then put a camper shell. Put level on it and it was way off tilted up. Brought it to level and ran the check and it’s at .30°. No obstruction of camera near rear view nor module itself. Pulled headliner and checked co ax and all looks good. It just happened randomly when I was driving last week.
@@TheZchauvin any idea how it got tilted up? Nothing has hit it? I’ve seen a few cracked and getting moisture inside, but the had been hit by something.
@@CarShopTalk No idea, it’s not like the truck is higher in front than rear and I checked level on door sill - truck was level when I leveled the module out. Perhaps it got hit when the suspension system was put on. Really have no idea. Brackets and all seem to be fine, I have a appointment with dealership but I really can’t have truck tied up for multiple days.
Is there a way to see offset using forscan? We did the ccm calibration in forscan and the forscan alignment prompt goes away after driving ten minutes but cruise still does not work. Reset dtc but still get the same dtc b142e at next startup with no cruise function
I think the maximum amount of time the cruise module will try to do the calibration is 10 minutes, then it times out. If it doesn’t calibrate in that amount of time something is wrong.
Will this notification cause your vehicle to have any other issues? Will it cause your vehicle to not function properly or is it just an annoying notification to have on the cluster?
For the most part it’s just a notification letting you know it’s not available / turned on
Cruise control will be disabled
What's the steps in FDRS to install the new module ?
PMI and CCM calibration.
I have a 21 fr50 lariat sport and this is the second time I have had this issue with pre collision assist not available. Mine cruise won't work nor will my head lights auto bright and dim on its own....my question is it the one in the windshield behind the rear-view mirror or is the one in the bumper showed that is the problem or maybe both.
On some systems they both work in combination for pre collision assist. Really codes need to be pulled to determine which has a problem.
Hey @CarShopTalk, very informative video, but you didn't mention anything about programming the new pre-collision sensor you installed. I bought a new pre-collision sensor thinking I'd be able to install it myself on my Ford after watching your video, but without having a way to install the Ford As-Built software to the new sensor, it looks like I'm going to have to take in to the dealership.
You should be able to configure it with the windows version of Forscan. You’ll need the licensed version, but I think they still offer free two-month license for someone just installing a module or two.
How do I reprogram a new one in forecast I see a lot of stuff on re calibration but I can’t find any information on reprogramming after installing a new one
Forscan*
same error message on my 2017 explorer sport. but no error code when scanned. what would be the problem?
You get the message all the time or just once in a while?
Took my 2021 in to dealer because my rear view camera wasn’t working they fixed that but now i get this warning along with lane keep assist fault they have my truck for about a month already and can’t seem to fix it keep saying models can’t program
It's happening on 2021 Mustang Mach-E's as well. It's not an EV problem, it's a Ford problem.
@@sliceronsteam did it get fixed ? If so what was the solution?
How do you see cruise control module show up in f ok rscan lite
It’s under cruise control module, in error codes, service functions, pids, self test etc.
I have a 2018 F150, I have the same message PC Assist not available. I replaced the module but I don't see the Cruise Control Module in Forscan. Could it be the cheap OBDII connection adapter?
It would be under the wrench icon. Do you see ccm in the configuration and program section?
Thank you. I ended up just taking it to the Ford dealer. They charged $180 but they got everything working great.

Is this under warranty? Or ford does not cover?
This one was under warranty, yes. I think it falls under the bumper to bumper warranty so 3 years / 36k. I’ve seen a few with the mounting bracket broken or even the module itself broken from hitting something. That wouldn’t be covered under warranty, possibly under insurance.
What if I had only the lamp without any messages? And goes off when I turn off the car.
Lamp? Your truck has adaptive cruise and it’s not working?
@@CarShopTalk it’s Ford Taurus, the car working no problem, the lamp itself it comes On by itself and the lamp goes Off when I switched the car off. The lamp comes On without any messages.
@@Almeilabi what’s the lamp look like? An engine or?
@@CarShopTalk it’s like the lamp in the video, the auto brake lamp for Pre anti collision
what if it occurs at ford raptor 2024
Just once or often?
Ice snow and cold does it all the time ! Frost on windshield , sensors have ice on them in bumper or IN them ! Love my truck but these sensors are GARBAGE in the north ! Ford easy damn fix a heater in the sensor ! Back up camera on my F150 always under road slush ice or dirt ! Not in a good place or heated to keep it ice free !
They definitely have a lot of issues this time of year.
