Mastering CANbus Fault Finding: Solving the Ford Fiesta Front Camera Malfunction

Hi & Welcone to Dans Diagnostics.
Today we have a 2017 Ford Fiesta with a Front Camera Malfunction warning message on the cluster. Multiple DTCs set for loss of communication with the IPMA & the code reader won't communicate with the module either.
In the video I show you a step by step routine into diagnosing a CANbus issue, without replacing any expensive parts.

This highlights the problem with modern cars, you need expensive diagnostic equipment for fault finding. Good job.

[@DansDiagnostics]

Thanks mate. Modern cars are very technical aren't they. The amount of knowledge you need as a technician these days is unreal. Yet we're one of, if not the lowest paid trade

My 2021 Focus has a near identical issue, but when this warning comes up on my screen, it's usually followed by a warning straight after about the collision sensor. Drives me nuts, as it can be fine for days without any issue, then it might happen up to around 100 times in a 2 hour journey.

What type of Camera is this? Cause I keep getting this error up and I don’t even know what the camera is for

[@Dislxud_kid]

Getting this problem on a Ford Focus 2018, code U023a. Can’t find any splits in the wires, any ideas?

[@DansDiagnostics]

Do you have a good power, ground and CAN communication to the module?
