Oh yea. I don't think I've ever seen one vehicle that has zero codes in it. They all cry about something.Just to add what I found talking to the techs at my local dealer, the OTA system will not apply updates to a module with any stored codes, even if they arent currently active and just in history.
They weren't sure why, but these cars love to set random loss of communication, open circuit, loss of vision for camera, etc. type of codes in the modules.
Which I can confirm while monitoring my car with the month of FDRS access I have, I do also usually see random loss of IPMA communication stored codes in ABS or random open circuit codes on RFA or random modules that if anything is showing orange in FDRS will from my understanding hold up an OTA if its pending.
I never get any check engine lights or warning that the car has had an issue but upon plugging it into FDRS you see these random codes popping up. Hopefully it can be fixed with some updates to the appropriate modules... Soon™
The difference is that @rugedraw has taken the time to examine the information on multiple examples, observed the individual situations, and to postulate on the evidence he’s found. The people at the hotline basically read from a script. ?‍<SNIP>
The bag boy at Publix has as much capability to trigger an update than the people who answer the phone at the OTA hotline. 50% of them are clueless, and 100% of them are powerless to do anything to help. All they can is look at PTS (which is what I do) and give you their interpretation of what they see based on little to no training or understanding of how any of this works.
Looks like they did a few updates but also some remaining (2nd pic)VIN: 3FMTK3SU6MMA10703
Hello, my dealer only updated HCM,LDCMA,LDCMB, things improved, but not so much, the light it's still not so bright on the driver's side... Also, another problem was created: a neighbor called me to check my headlights because they seemed to be turned on, and this was true, even if my car was parked for more than 12 hours...Should I go back to the dealer and gather the logs and send them to Ford, and also ask for headlight module replacement? For me, it seems that this is an endless story...You have at least three updates, possibly four that might help with the headlight issues:
