How to clear this warning screen?

[Built2Wild]

I can't clear this from my screen, does anyone know how I can clear this other than going to the dealership.

Post-it or black electrical tape. I'm sorry I could not help myself. I don't have a helpful answer.

Were you driving off-road with the sta-bar disconnected and now it will not reconnect? Or did this error just suddenly appear while the sta-bar was connected in Normal drive mode?

This appeared while exiting the freeway offramp which is a right hand turn up a semicircle offramp.

Hmm…It seems like half the time these faults are an electrical problem like low 12V system or faulty sensor. But if you were driving then that rules out low system voltage. Since you were on a decelerating turn, the sta-bar was loaded so it might need to be checked out. Did you feel any excessive roll?

You could just disconnect the battery for a few minutes to clear faults to see if the error reappears. Sorry I don’t have a solution - I haven’t seen this error on mine.

I will give it a try

I’m going with the low / failing battery. They do all types of crazy things.

Sorry about this

Sorry about this

Did you break his sway bar?!

I dont think so, that would be very interesting if I did.

I’d charge the battery overnight to see if it clears. Otherwise I’d go to the dealership.

I don’t know why they made that part so overly complicated. I added one to my wildtrak with a simple on/off toggle.

even that warning is too much. It should say “use caution if off-roading” since the failure mode is to return to being a normal anti swaybar.

Tangent: I wish my rear sway could also e-disco.

I will give that a shot as well, thank you!

But if you were driving then that rules out low system voltage.

Seems like a bad battery can still cause issues even with the vehicle running. I think the BMS on the alternator causes just as many issues as it helps. If you get a big hit on the battery, and there's a ton of big electrical stuff besides just the starter, like Power Steering, Electric Brakes, Parking Brakes, cooling fans, etc... and the alternator is just doing it's "I'm gonna save on fuel and just trickle charge right now" you can still see big voltage drops... and a computer module someplace just craps all over itself from the dirty power.

There have been some sway bar failures. If it is under warranty have it checked if not get a code reader and see what it is.

The only way to clear that from the screen is to reset the DTC code. You can do that with a scanner that supports Ford extended codes... Also forscan can clear it...

Of course check what the code is too, it's most likely complaining about low hydraulic pressure in the disco assembly, if it is, look for leaks on the assembly.. unfortunately, the entire until is 'not serviceable' so a leak means replace the whole thing.
