Ranger Mods

OK, this is probably just me misremembering and being paranoid but I've been making a few changes via FORscan lately and want to be sure it's not something I've done.

For those with the rear camera, and Sync 3 if it matters, does the green/yellow/red distance indicator turn when you turn the wheel or do they always remain straight? I thought I recalled them turning but now they remain just straight and I have faint grey indicators that indicate the path/direction of travel.

I have sync3 and yes, the lines definitely turn when you move the wheel. The lines are quite bright so I'd say something has changed.

Hmm, thanks. Odd that I do have grey indicator lines that turn as the steering is turned. It seems redundant if the coloured distance indicators also turn.

I only noticed it after making the change for tyre size so I'll have to check that tonight.

Stewart, Ranger guru, can you think of anything off hand?

Never had the problem. But you can active, describe the lines in the BCM so if you have a backup then restore it and see if they come back.

You can also enable/disable them in Sync2 from memory.

I double checked the change for tyre size and I've definitely changed the right thing to the right value so I don't think that's it. I did have that big update from Ford a week or so ago, I guess it's possible that changed the way it works?

Quickly snapped these when I got home. First one is with the steering straight. Second one I've turned the wheel a bit so you can see the guides. Is this what others have? From what I recall the coloured lines moved and that seems to be what Gerry has?





I know the overlay can be turned off completely as a few Mustang owners who disconnected their camera while swapping the surround lost the overlay and had to take it to Ford to get it back but mine's there, just not sure if it's working as it's supposed to.

No. Coloured do not move. Grey moves with steering.

Ah, excellent thanks. So just my paranoia causing me to misremember how it works.

I may have misled you earlier... I just went and checked and mine is the same as Stewart's. I honestly thought the coloured ones moved too, but obviously not.

That's OK, so did I obviously LOL.
