- 2021 Ford F-350 Tremor (Antimatter Blue)
So, I’ve owned my truck (2021 F350 Tremor KR w/ winch) for 6 days. Couple days ago I received a “Pre-Collision Assist Not Available“ warning on startup and it’s been like this for a couple days. Yesterday, I learned my cruise control (both adaptive and normal) don’t work either. After some research, I found a couple items to check regarding the forward sensor (located on the drivers side lower grill/bumper opening):
1) Make sure nothing is obstructing the sensor.
-Sensor was blocked by the winch cable which was tethered to the front tow loop. (Switched that to the opposite side)
2) Verify the sensor is not loose and cables are plugged in
-Sensor is tight and cables appear to be plugged in; located out of reach, so can’t fully verify the connection
3) Verify Fuse(s)
-Haven’t tried this yet, will later this AM
4) Winch installations require the sensor to be recalibrated...
-The winch installation looks fantastic. Wire loom, clips, cable routing, bolt head direction, etc - everything was meticulous.
So mainly my questions are:
1) Is there a way to calibrate the sensor myself? Through Forscan?
2) After moving the winch cable, does the PCM or another module need to be reset for it to ‘relearn‘ the sensor is clear?
3) Any other ideas/checks?
