escape20 Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 I am pretty sure my lane centering was on when this has come on. Is that light listed somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92merc Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 You have frost on the windshield when that is lit? If it is lane centering, and the camera is covered (located behind your inside mirror), it could trigger that. I had that happen on the company Escape. But the Escape was the a stripper model. Lower than the SE. But it did have that warning when I couldn't reach the camera to scrape the frost off. Being a stripper, didn't have your digital dash.

dchan Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 (edited) It can also be a collision sensor warning. Basically it's telling you that the camera or the forward facing sensors are blocked for some reason. Letting you know that you need to be more aware of your speed, distance, or lane centering. I believe adaptive cruise, lane centering, distance monitoring, pedestrian pre-emptive collision braking, forward collision braking, etc are affected in this case. I think all the 23's and 24's have the 360 copilot technology and I think it may even go back to 2020. It can also be caused by driving directly into the sun. Glare on the camera can make it hard for the system camera to make out what ever it is looking for. Sometimes it's just moisture on the windshield (early morning when you get streaking from the wipers) Dirty wiper blades can make it worse!

Chrisgb Posted Monday at 02:24 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:24 PM Wouldn't there be a corresponding message in the Driver Info Display? on my '18 Escape, I would get a message to the effect that the lane keeping was not functioning because the camera was blocked. The 2018 Escape had opposing sweep wipers which would leave the camera obscured with snow or dirt. 2019 and beyond had parallel sweepers that cleared the top center of the windshield better.

There is a warning tone and message that appears for a short period of time that you can "acknowledge" and it goes away. Depending on what the system was affected, it would say something like "Adaptive cruise control is turned off" or "preemptive forward braking is disabled" I think you can use the "driver assist" settings to turn off certain notifications. and I to have gotten "camera blocked" or "Sensor's blocked" messages as well.
