I have been working on my 2018 XLT to install auto climate control and replace the heated seat harness and SCME module. That involved replacing the FCIM to enable the controls. I was unable to get it to work and disconnected it for now. At the same time, my battery would not old a charge. My truck would not start, and it was towed to the dealer. I had a bad fuse at F18 which was replaced. After this I also had a new battery installed.
I am now getting multiple DTCs from 7 different modules. My power door locks, radio controls, power mirrors no longer work. I will add the log of the DTC errors and would appreciate any help in diagnosing the problem.

All of these are likely connected to your FCIM being disconnected. First connect that and make sure it is programmed. Then clear codes and see if any come back.

 

I reconnected the FCIM and it would not connect. I replaced it with the original FCIM and it would not connect either. I could not clear the DTCs in Forscan.

 

Check fuse f28 and make sure your fuse for the FCIM is good.

 

I checked fuse f28. It's good, but I replaced it anyway and no change. I'm taking it to the dealer this morning. I'll update when I know more. Thanks for your suggestions.

 

Understand it's been over a year on this thread, but what ended up being the fix for this?

 

Hey, figured I'd post this to help people with this issue. I was working on a 2018 F150, chasing a similar problem. Most of those modules including the FCIM operate on the MS-CAN network. The network runs from the OBDII port, which is built into the gateway connector, under the hood, just behind the airbox. From that point there is a connector that feeds the MS-CAN to the rear of the truck. This is where i found the problem, there is a 16 pin connector by the spare tire that had several wires corroded. The MS-CAN network loops through the rear taillights and back through the same connector then goes back to the connector under the hood, and from there the circuit terminates at the FCIM. I hope this saves someone the 12 hours it took me to diagnose the problem.

 

Just had this come up in my truck. No Roush mods, but the blind spot and rear camera went out.
Had a buddy run a test and the following faults came up:
U0232:00-0A
U0233:00-0A
lost comm with side obstacle detection control modules A and B
B115E:08-0B
camera module

removed both tail lights, and sensors are clean and dry. No issues when removing tailgate in camera area

I dont wanna take it to ford cuz I know they’re gonna take the path of least resistance on all of this causing multiple returns to the shop and the bank

thoughts??

 

For the SODs (aka: BLIS modules) check connector C405 behind the spare tire. For the camera, check both C406 and C408.

 

thanks, will check tomorrow and get back to you!
