Issues when adding accessories

Added the winch and bumper... now the crash detection goes off all the time at low speed. Also adaptive cruise has issues with this too... need to reprogram RCM module, but being blocked by winch. Going in with Forscan to try to shut off some features. Hopefully it allows refresh with my changes.. Anyone have similar issues adding different accessories? What did you adjust with Forscan to correct? Any other cool adjustments we can make to enhance driving the new Bronco??

Nothing helpful to add….only questions. Are they Ford accessories or aftermarket? If Ford products then I would go to the dealer and let them go work with the engineers to figure it out. Even if they are aftermarket parts they shouldn’t cause electronic problems.

Accessories

All Ford stuff added on, of course they come out with a statement after the fact... that winch is not compatible with forward crash and adaptive cruise.... come on Ford... a winch should go on any trim level and work with all factory options. Pretty sure they engineered the Bronco and came out with a host of add-ons (that Ford sells) that should fit and function. Rumor is Ford is working on a reflash that will post in OASIS, hopefully soon.

Amazing. If I were you, wouldn’t mess with anything. They could come back later and say you tampered with the computer and try to void the warranty. You just never know…..
