Symptom Chart(s)
Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices.
REFER to:
Diagnostic Methods
(100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).
Symptom Chart: Active Park Assist
Condition | Possible Sources | Actions |
---|---|---|
A module does not communicate with the scan tool |
|
REFER to: Communications Network (418-00 Module Communications Network, Diagnosis and Testing). |
The active park assist system does not respond when the active park assist switch is pressed and the FDIM does not display an active park assist message | Refer to the Pinpoint Test | GO to Pinpoint Test E |
The FDIM displays an Active Park Assist Fault message | Refer to the Pinpoint Test | GO to Pinpoint Test F |
The FDIM displays Active Park Assist Is Not Available message |
|
The active park assist system is not available if any door (except the driver door) or the decklid is ajar, if the AdvanceTrac® is off, if an ABS or AdvanceTrac® event is in progress when the system is being activated by the driver. |
Ambient air temperature sensor calibration | If the ambient air temperature sensor has lost calibration, the Active Park Assist will be unavailable. If the battery has been disconnected or recent service actions have resulted in the replacement of any module on the network, the ambient air temperature sensor calibration may have been reset. REFER to the Powertrain Controls/Emissions Diagnostics manual to diagnose the ambient air temperature sensor. | |
The active park assist system does not position the vehicle correctly |
|
INSTALL the parking aid sensor(s) into the parking aid sensor bezel(s) correctly. |
|
CLEAN the bumper covers and active park assist sensors with high-pressure water. | |
|
The temperature of the air around the vehicle can change rapidly, such as the vehicle being driven into or out of a parking garage or car wash. As a result, the air temperature displayed in the vehicle may not be close enough to the actual ambient air temperature. The active park assist system relies on accurately sensing the ambient air temperature to compensate the sensors. No action is required. | |
|
INSPECT the tire condition, pressure and size. A considerably worn tire positions the vehicle far from the curb. A larger size tire positions the vehicle closer to the curb. REPAIR or REPLACE tire(s) as necessary. | |
|
INFORM the customer not to allow the vehicle to roll in the opposite direction when operating the active park assist system. REFER to the Owner's Literature. | |
|
The system may not be able to align the vehicle to curbs that are damaged, very shallow or covered by debris. If this is the circumstance, the system aligns the vehicle relative to objects bordering the parking space. | |
|
The system aligns the vehicle to the objects bordering the parking space when a curb is not detected. | |
|
Elevated attachments may not be detected by the system. | |
|
The system scans the parking space as the vehicle is driven by the available spaces. Therefore, the system cannot detect if the parked vehicle or objects position has changed after the parking space has been scanned. No action needs to take place at this time. | |
The active park assist system does not offer available parking spaces |
|
The vehicle must be driven greater than 406.4 mm (16 in) and less than 1,524 mm (60 in) from the adjacent vehicle. |
|
The active park assist system only allows available parking spaces that are larger than 1.2 times the size of the vehicle. The system is operating correctly at this time. | |
|
There needs to be enough space on the opposite side of the vehicle to allow the front of the vehicle to swing out as the operator backs into the space. | |
|
INSPECT and CLEAN the active park assist sensor(s). REMOVE any obstruction that is covering the sensor(s). |
