Reset my WT with 37s to 549. Now I am getting a TEAC service message and Adapted Cruise Control is not available. Any ideas?

I have a Badlands Bronco on 35s and today sent it to the dealership to have the speedometer corrected using Forscan. A few hours later, I received a "Powertrain Malfunction" message on my FordPass app.

Shortly after, the dealer called me and explained that their technician was unable to adjust the speedometer because it was generating an error message that was disabling my 4x4 system. They had to revert the settings back to how they were before.

I searched through various threads but couldn't find anyone who has experienced a similar issue. My Bronco is still at the dealership, and I'm now worried about the possibility of my 4x4 system failing while I'm out wheeling.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Is there a solution to this?

There is a maximum circumference that can be used. Not sure why. I played around just to see what would happen and had the same errors pop up. Set it back to the max of...whatever it is...and used forscan to clear the codes. (That maximum value is in this thread somewhere) No issues after that. Speedo is about 8% under gps.

EDIT: Think I got it. I read here that tire circumferences typically are about 5% lower than actual measured values. Originally had my actual measured value of 2921mm. Just for the hell of it I took the time to reduce that by 5% to 2775mm. Ran thru the relearn for PCM and AWD then cleared codes and - presto. I'm clean!! Not sure if my original value exceed the max upper limit or maybe just doing it "one more time" is what it took.

EDIT II: And OBTW - exactly 5% less than the actual measured tire circumference was SPOT ON for the calibration.


ORIGINAL POST FOLLOWS....

Trying to recalibrate for my 37's. Latest ForScan. Latest firmware on my OBDLink MX

Can't get the DTCs to clear. Did the "relearn from central configuration" for PCM and AWD (I don't have a TCM module). Have the following DTC's that won't clear...

PCM - U0422 (invalid data from BodyCM)
ABS - C0078 (Tire Diameter)

Searched everywhere and haven't found anybody with the ABS error or how to clear it.

Any help before I open my wallet for the dealership?

I did - but at the time I was still trying to figure out what that ABS code was all about and how to clear it. My brain just was not thinking that exceeding the max size would cause it. So I filed in the back of my mind under "shit to remember if I get a "tire size too big" sounding error (ha ha)

BTW - I just scanned that thread you linked to and still didn't see the actual number. But, I guess, I now know it's somewhere between 2775 and 2921 :)

Yeah it doesn't make sense to me why there is a limit. They must have their reasons.

And whoops! Must be in one of the other Forscan threads. It's definitely in the forum somewhere. I think it's 2750.

Dealer was able to correct the error, they said they had to change/update a couple of modules. I believe they used whatever specs the Sasquatch package has. Drives and handles much better now, but my speedo is now about 5mph above gps. I will reach out to them again on Monday.

I find it interesting that others are saying their speedo is reading 2 mph faster than they are actually going with factory tires and wheels. Wouldn't that get you to 36000 miles sooner than the actual miles and show that you are out of warranty before you have actually traveled a true 36k miles?

Use the PCM service function instead of the PCM relearn. The PCM relearn doesn't work.

UPDATE: on new Forscan versions (2.3.52+), " PCM Module initialization/relearn vehicle data" is reported to work.

Detail:
1- I used FORScanSetup2.3.47.test20220221 (version that supports MY2022 goat modes) with OBDLink EX. You will also need a FORScan demo license.
FORScanSetup2.3.47.test20220221.exe

2- Set front/rear TPMS and tire size in BdyCM. For KM3 37x12.50R17D on sasquatch wheels, use 35psi and 2760mm. For sasquatch stock tires and wheels, use 39psi and 2653mm. Tire circumference cannot exceed 2800mm. DTC's will be set in 2-3 modules that will need to be fixed.

1649394551830.jpeg

3 - To fix the non-PCM DTC's, run the AWD relearn. Don't run the PCM relearn (it doesn't work).
1649394679054.jpeg

4 - Clear the DTC's. All should be cleared except PCM.
5 - Run the PCM reset-all-adaptations service function. This will fix the size mismatch and also clear the PCM DTC. It will relearn the engine/trans/fuel adaptations over time while driving. UPDATE: on new Forscan versions (2.3.52+), " PCM Module initialization/relearn vehicle data" is reported to work.
1649394808203.jpeg

6 - Confirm all DTCs are cleared.
1649394872617.jpeg

7 - Install a free speedometer app with tenth-mph readout on your phone and testdrive to confirm speed is within 0.5mph at 60mph cruise control. For new tires, the actual speed should be a little higher than speedo. For worn tires the actual speed will be a little less.
THANK YOU for posting and updating this info! Worked like a charm. I wanted to share my experience for others who might be in the same boat.

I have a 2021 and have been running the ProCal Tune since it became available. I used the calibration tool rather than ForScan to adjust the speedo and set the tire revs per mile. It wasn’t an issue when I went up to 35s. However, using the ProCal UI to set my revs per mile to 564 for 37x12.50r17 tires it updates the core configuration out of the 2800mm threshold to 2840mm. As it learned, this eventually started throwing bad data/bus codes and warnings when I would jump on the gas. The warnings were the slurry of chain events such as…hammer the gas, Pre-Collision Assist Unavailable, PowerTrain Malfunction / Reduced Power, Check 4x4 and Hill Start Assist Warning. These were simple to clear by turning it off for a little or disconnecting the battery ground for 10 minutes. However, I could consistently recreate the issue by hitting the throttle hard.

After checking the Body Control Module connections and fuses I started digging into the DTCs and sure enough “Tire circumference parameter exceeds maximum value for module” was right there in the logs.

Thankfully, after being unable to reset the PCM DTC I tried the steps in this post and set the tire circumference as recommended to 2760mm and so on. Not only did it allow me to clear the DTC but is spot on the speedo now too.

TLDR; if you use the ProCal Tune Calibration tool to set your tire size, check for out of bounds values!

Nice catch. They must have thought no one would be getting anything bigger than 35s.

2770mm for my 37” is right on.

Followed this process yesterday when moving to 35s. Latest Forscan version *.67 worked like a charm. Relearned the AWD, PCM and TCM modules after writing the new value. Set the tire circumference to 2600mm. Speedo reads about 1mph below GPS speed at 65mph.

Also took the liberty of finally changing the key fob panic button behavior to trigger after 2 clicks instead of the default 1 click. The number of times I’ve squatted or bent over and accidentally triggered it… no more.

It seems the digital speedometer will always read 1 mph low when calibrated correctly as it persists across the whole range of speeds.

Any magic number for 37x12.50r17 KO2s? Thanks!

EDIT: 2750mm worked and it’s spot on!

That’s strange. I started at 2698 for 285/75R17 and found the sweet spot to be 2580.
Yes it’s very much a trial and error it seems. Went to the 285/75/17 for my winter tire package and seems like 2567 got me bang on. Always found the 2653 was off by a mph showing higher than actual right from stock so this fixed change and I’ll wait to see how it is once I put the Sasquatch tires back on in spring.
