Lost Modes with multiple errors

[WR1]

I was wheeling in Baja mode and 20 min into the trail the mode just disappeared - got several errors:

1)Drive mode not available
2)Service Advance Trac
3)Pre Collision not available
4)Park Aid Fault

Tried turning off engine a few times for a reset with no luck

Turned around to head back to road and just like that, everything came back and seemed normal after about 10 min - was able to shift in and out of goat modes as normal

Anyone have a clue ??

I did have Ford performance computer upgrade a while back when I went to 37s and Bronco was in shop for a winch install very recently - they may have looked at the computer at last visit since my speedometer was a few miles off

Any thoughts appreciated

Did try seeing if any DTC codes are stored?

 

[WR1]

No idea how that is done ??

Need to pull the codes, you have faults that could be multiple things. Abs sensor, AWD module or steering... Lot of things take out the goat modes!

How is pulling codes done ??

OBD reader. There are a ton out there.

Or go visit your friendly local AutoZone (or any major auto parts place) - they will usually scan codes for free

sorry for the dumb question but would ford procal read these error codes - I do have that from an upgrade but never personally used it ??

ProCal will read the PCM (engine only) codes but it can’t read from the majority of the other modules

That’s a good question. - totally dumb that it doesn’t read all the codes

I had something nearly identical happen to me late one night. Took it in for service and they found a tar ball on the the wheel sensor rear passenger side. By the time I brought it in Tuesday (it was Saturday night) all the messages were gone but they looked at it anyway.
