Adding Adaptive Cruise

I am wanting an F150 with adaptive cruise. I am under then understanding that I have to get a 2015+ Lariat with 502A option code on it to add adaptive cruise.
From what I found this is the parts and re-coding to add it.


My question, does it have to be a 2015+ Lariat with 502A option code. Can it be added to a 501a truck or an XLT with 302a or 301a?

Hey Fred. Not sure what forum, but maybe the stereo and electronics?

I have ACC on my 2014 Fusion Energi and it's awesome. I'll never buy a new vehicle without it.

Can't you just buy a truck with the ACC already on it?

Well you put down 3 different model levels, put down 1 model, the one you have and someone might answer your question. There are too many variables to answer the way you have it. I really doubt it can be fitted to a XLT level truck. I doubt it will work on my Lariat with 501A trim level.

There was another thread with almost the same subject line where the guy had added ACC. He included all the part numbers and had a description of what he had done. I don't recall what model he started with.

I wanted ACC on the 2018 Lariat I ordered but you had to order the high priced package plus the ACC. If you could have done it with the mid one I would have done it.

In a previous thread, a knowledgeable fellow said that the XL and XLT trucks were made in a different plant than the Lariat and above trucks. He surmised that they had different wiring harnesses which would preclude you from just adding it to an XLT without rewiring it.

Hope this helps,

matt
