Cannot get Reversing camera and Dynamic lines to work

I have a 2013 Ford Focus ST which has been retrofitted with a Sync 3 system. Everything works correctly except for the OEM reversing camera. Can anyone see anything wrong or not set in the APIM settings for it not to work. The camera worked fine before the retrofit.

This may not be exact for your 2013 Focus…

Check your FCIM asbuilt for the following:
7A7-01-01 xxXX xxxx xxxx
In your OEM FCDIM asbuilt, it has ‘00’ entered there.
00=No Remote Display, APIM Not Present, ACCT Fixed, ATWU Not Supported, RAF Not Supported. PWMVBCBT VBC

Change the value to ‘60
60=Touchscreen Display, APIM Present, ACCT Fixed, ATWU Not Supported, RAF Not Supported. PWMVBCBT VBC

They are called Active guidelines not Dynamic guidelines. Make sure all these conditions are meet also. Note the last sentence also incase that setting is not right.

Thanks for the help, i will look into these suggestions. I may take me a while, but thank you.

What should the setting be for the antenna on a Australian 2013 Ford Focus ST

727-01-01 xx** X*** xxxx

This is what I have. Am I missing something?

That ACM doesn’t have any adjustments for that.
You are in Australia?

Can you please take a look at settings above and let me know if you can see anything wrong. I am getting a U2101 dtc for this setting.

Looking at the settings available, should my settings be

727-01-01 9A30

This is for the ACM radio module. Since you had Sync 1, it’s probably now not configured properly. 0030 is actually 00 and the checksum bits of ‘30’. The code is actually ‘00’ or disabled. If you use ‘9A’, the checksum bits will be calculated by FORScan, but will not be 30.

This ACM is a remnant of the Sync 1 system that was removed, I suppose…you could look up your VIN asbuilt and look at the original coding for the ACM. Or just enter the ‘9A’ code and see if it works.

Does the radio work?

The ACM was replaced along with the APIM/Screen.

Radio works but radio station signal strength is weak. FM drops off every now and then.

My question is the setting 9A (the A is for DAB disabled) the ACM has DAB but the car doesn’t have a DAB antenna. So should I use that or Should I put it to C ( the C is for DAB enabled) even though I will not be using it?

Try both and see if it works. Likely you will need to disable DAB without the proper antenna.

Thank you will do.
