ISSUE
Some 2010-2011 Taurus, Fusion, Milan, MKZ, MKT, 2011 Edge, MKX and Explorer vehicles equipped with blind spot information system (BLIS) and
cross traffic alert (CTA) may exhibit diagnostic trouble code (DTC) U3000 stored in the left hand (LH) or right hand (RH) side obstacle detection
(SOD) module and/or continuous blockage messages displayed (BLIS not available) and/or (CTA not available) in the message center. Blockage
messages that clear after a key cycle, reappear on clear days with no heavy rain or snow may be attributed to system software.
ACTION
Reprogram the left and right SOD modules to the latest calibration using IDS release 70.02 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM
2010.11 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website.
