is there any way with Forscan or whatever else, to disable the "keep your hands on the wheel" warning?

That stuff is seriously overbearing, credit ford for making a 35" tire track a flat road like an arrow, but Im driving and I have to input a little chicane just to get my gauge cluster back.

Its quite annoying, Id love to get rid of it... can forscan do that?

God this has been driving me insane. I finally just had to turn lane keep assist off. I like having it on, but just couldn't take the endless BOOPBOOP BOOPBOOP BOOPBOOP anymore. Fucking ridiculous

I know there is a setting in the on-screen menu to turn off inattentive driver notifications. I don’t know if it only eliminates the suggested stop for coffee warnings, or also the “keep hands on the wheel” warning?

I just keep lane keep assist off. Useless and annoying anyway IMO

I will have to investigate that... its in the cluster menu, or in the infotainment?

Infotainment screen.

Just about the same for me. 9 out of 10 times it wouldn’t bother me when it kicked in. I managed to disable audible alerts, but then it would turn the stereo volume down if I didn’t jiggle the steering wheel. Hey Ford, your vehicle was aligned well from the factory! So little to no input is needed on a straight road! Stop telling me to put my hands on the wheel… they are!

That unfortunately only disables the coffee pop-up.

I’ve never experienced any of this. But I’ve never turned LDW/LKAS on. Must be linked?

Yea, it does it when you have lane keep assist on and don't wiggle the steering wheel for a (far too short) period of time.

Ford could fix it with a software update to lengthen the amount of time without input... but they won't.

Not only is it annoying but extremely inconsistent. I can drive for 40 min with one hand on the top of the steering wheel and nothing. Then all of the sudden every 45 sec it starts beeping about hand location and it won't matter how many hands or where your hands are, it's going to beep until I turn the the lane assist off....

I was worried there was something wrong with my Bronco and was going to take it in. Every single day on my drive home this happens, and it always happens in the same area. I'm like "I have a hand on the wheel, WTF!"

I was hoping this would fix it, but alas, no dice.
Even tried changing the lane keeping assist mode to aid only (instead of aid +alert) at the suggestion of a different vehicle forum with no luck

Maybe someday the FORScan magicians will surprise us!

I had to turn lane assist off too. First I thought I had a messed up tire on the highway with it. Way to sensitive. My suburban lane assist works damn good. That one actually activates when you hit the line, then steers it back into the lane itself. Get about 20 seconds hands off.

Wish ford did some other vibration then the grinding one they have now.

Shoot me a message after 6 pm central and I'll look through the settings to see if anything looks promising to me.

But it'll be hard to verify...
