Hi
the chineese camera will work correctly BUT it needs to flash the LCD with one of the modified software. One of them iwas made by Quickie (presented in ADS) and the second by DarkLeo (presented in UCDS).

Hi,
I would like to update FW in IPC on Focus MK3 2011 (EU version).
My IPC is on this version now:
HW: BM5T-14C226-BC
App: BM5T-14C026-BK

I downloaded these files from internet:
BM5T-14C026-ACC — Pictures / Sounds / Quad Layout
BM5T-14C026-AFE — Calibration / EEPROM
BM5T-14C026-BBD — Firmware

My question: Are these downloaded files right for update of IPC in my car?

Thank you for response.

Hi all,

I changed my 2 line display to 4.2" screen and installed the SYNC module to my 2015 Focus without any problem. Microphone, 2nd USB and AUX, bluetooth and all other functions related to SYNC works great.

I also installed GPSM. I checked with ForScan, I can see it in installed modules list.

However SYNC keeps saying on every start "Emergency assistance doesn't work, please see your dealer for service". Also I can change Emergency assistance setting in park, when the car moves it become disabled.

Are there any settings in central config related with that? What is wrong? Any help will be great.

Today I solved the problem by re-programming the RCM and emergency assist notification magically disappeared.

Hello,

I would like to add to my FF3 2015 (facelift), the following:
ACS
TSR/Lane Keep
Rain/Light sensor
heated windshield

Right now I have this in the middle of the windshield (only GPS module for the 8 inches screen):
posted image

is it possible to do such a thing?
Which parts should I change/add for each one? Appart from buttons/switches, wiring and windshield, should I need any other parts? Like ABS module etc?

Thanks

Theoretically you can do all you want with correct parts and wiring. Rain and light sensor and heated windshield are relatively less complicated than others. Some of my friends already done them in Turkey.

Thanks for the info.
Regarding ACS and TSR-Lane Keeping aid (which share the same sensor as far as I understand), would I need anything other than cabling/wiring, the sensor and indicator switch (this switch only for the lane keeping aid)?

Regarding heating windscreen, do you see in the picture below, the connectors (I think there should be two) that need to be connected for the system to work? Are they in the top part or the bottom part of the windshield?

Is it possible to enable them through focccus and/or forscan?

Thanks

I didnt searched what is needed for ACS, lane keeping etc. so I can't tell you exactly what you need. For heated windscreen, as far as I know there are two connectors bottom of the windscreen. You should also find climate panel with heated windscreen button. And yes you can activate with focccus.

I don't know do you use or not, but microcat is your best friend You can find 2016 version easily with a little search in web. Your car's current wiring is quite important. Some cars are more equipped by factory build.

I have MY 2014 FF mk3.

I have installed:

BCM from FaceLift 2015
IPC from FaceLift 2015
SASM from FaceLift 2015
Park Assist 2.0 Face Lift 2015
Sync2 Face Lift 2015
Steering Wheel from Face Lift 2015

I have an issue that RES button from Cruise Control does not work.

Your car is MY 2015 ? The radar You installed is Face Lift and Face Lift car ?


Hi tracer,

I met the same problems with you. All related parts are from 2015 facelift, but the RES/+ and LIM on/off buttons DO NOT work, but others work well. I cannot set the speed for ACC with RES + button, but - button.

Have you solved this problem?

Thanks.

Hi, Have you met the problem that the LIM and RES + buttons DO NOT work, but others work well? All related ACC parts are from 2015 Facelift.

My car is Focus MKIII(2012). I've changed lots of parts:
ACC from 2015 Facelift (F1FT-)
BCM from 2015 Facelift (F1FT-)
SASM from 2015 Facelift (F1FT-)
Steering wheel and buttons from 2015 Facelift (ACC + Lim)

In IDS, no error. ACC also works well except two buttons invalid(RES/+ and LIM).

Thanks.

Yea.

I have ALL modules from C346MCA MY2016 include SDRL and APIM.

The 2 modules which I can NOT change are: PCM and PSCM.

I think problem is PCM... I am going to check resistance for instance to compare OLD vs NEW buttons for ACC.

Cheers

This is common problem sasm sends nothing to can when you press + or lim. 2015 IPC is also diffrent. Did you change it?

SASM connect to BCM with LIN bus, I monitored the DID in BCM (0x4128, using FoCCCus or IDS), and I found that the BCM cannot get the signal with those two buttons' click. So I don't know is it a problem of SASM or BCM.

I also changed the 2015 IPC

I have BCM from Face Lift as well but it does not help.

Did you compare LIN Pin in C346 and C346MCA - is there any diffrence ?

I remembered that the buttons for NORMAL CC without ASL works well, but buttons for ACC without ASL does not work either.
