I HATE the Adaptive Cruise Control - also a seatbelt message box question

[CoryB]

First off - I HATE HATE HATE the Adaptive Cruise Control - 2024 Ranger XLT (301A package). I don't like it in my Ranger and I don't like it in my wife's Bronco Sport.

In Forscan I found where to turn off the ACC completely. But whenever I turn on cruise, the system turns on Lane Keeping. I don't like all of these nannies. Can the Lane Keeper be sset so it stays off even when cruise control is on?

Also, I did the seatbelt dance and turned off the warnings. I wear a seatbelt any time I'm on a public road, but I don't feel a need to put it on at 8 mph on my private road when I'm going to get my mail. Can I make the "Press OK" box for the seatbelts just go away forever? I haven't been able to find that in Forscan yet. I tried the 720-13-01, 720-13-02 change and Forscan wouldn't write it, saying there was an error. Do I have to change 720-14-01 abd 720-14-02 as well?

Thanks for any help or advice.

Isn't there a setting to change ACC to just normal dumb cruise control? You shouldn't need to use forscan at all?

Yes there is I didn't like it either in my Lariat so I went back to normal.

Yes there is, and I did that. Now when I turn on cruise, it warns me that adaptive cruise is turned off.

I just prefer the old ways wherein I was the one driving the vehicle and not all of the nannies.

To turn off all the seatbelt messages and chimes…
go into IPC and disable all seats present

What Is IPC? If not part of Forscan where do you find it?
Thanks

IPC is in forscan.

Will that affect the airbags?

I’m with you on having to press ok when the seat belt is already on Fricken idiot lights. Isn’t supposed to go off when you put the belt on. WT

My dash light for the airbags is still functional for airbags.
