Ford Ecosport 2018-2019 ( 2018 MY) - how to activate DRL

[erick3.14]

Hi,
sorry for this post. I checked search first and found only 24 pages with reference for Ecosport, but I could not find anything related to DRL.
In fact I found this post but I saw it is quite old and no progress at all:
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4699&p=16840&hilit=ecosport#p16840

My Ford Ecosport is a 2018/2019 model. It is the entry level model in Brazil : Ford EcoSport TiVCT 1.5L 2019 ( 2018 MY ).
It originally comes with the regular bulb headlights and I swapped for the xenon+projector headlights version which has also DRL led built-in. It is a direct and plug and play replacement.

It is working fine, but I´d like to have LED DRL turned on as soon as ignition is on. I can only have led DRL turned on if I change the light switch for the parking light condition. And I don´t like to to turn it on and off every time I drive . I would like to have the proper DRL setup .

I check and tried different settings from the helpful links area (viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4393) , but I was not successfull so far .

I could activate some other features, specifically for Sync3, but the headlight DRL I could not find the proper settings so far.


Some examples of what I tried, but didn´t work at all
726-11-01 001B-001B-0075 -> 011B-001B-0075
726-26-02 0000-0000-0055 -> 0100-0000-0055


Another interesting thing I noticed, is that my Ecosport only shows following address range
BCM 726-01-01 up to 726-26-05
APIM 7D0-01-01 up to 7D0-08-02

And some of the helpful links and guides make reference for higher address range that I can´t access.


Can anyone help me? Does anyone know if there is any specific settings for the proper DRL operation in the Ecosport?

Oi Erick, boa tarde, você descobriu alguma coisa? Estou buscando este código também, além do código para ativação da camera de ré.
Hi Erick, have you found anything? I'm also looking for this code and also for the backup camera code. Thx

Reverse camera activation in Ecosport is simple. It is same as other Ford cases reported here in the group. I can get it in my computer later and share with you the details

For Reverse Camera activation in Ecosport

SYNC3
REVERSE CAM
RearView camera 7D0-01-01 xXxx xxxx xxxx
0=disabled
2=enabled (default)
A= enabled with obstacle detection
A= obstacle detection did NOT work on my Flex . need someone to confirm if it works or not

In my case I changed mine x0xx xxx xxxx to x2xx xxxx xxxx:
206A 0006 0069 -> 226A 0006 006B

For PDC (obstacle detection) you also need to alter 7D0-04-02 xxx* and have PDC installed:

0=no PDC/PSM/SAPP
1=rear PDC
2=rear/front PDC
3=rear/front PDC/SAPP (NA HMI)
4=rear/SAPP (EU HMI)
5=rear/front PDC/SAPP (EU HMI)
6=rear/SAPP (EU HMI)
7=rear/front PDC with APA
8=APA Lite
9=APA Lite Plus (SAPP/POA-10 channel)

Any ideas on how to enable DRL for Ecosport?

[ksoulis]

You can do limited changes from IPC Module Comfiguration and BCM.
I've managed to use fog lights as DRL through this process.

[matias316]

When you did that change in IPC related to DRL, stop working as a DRL as soon the ignition is on??

I enable the option you show and the DRL stop working.

Which aditional changes we have to do in BCM in order to make it work again?

Mine is EcoSport MY 2018 Argentina.

Thanks.
