If the vehicles automatic high beam operation is fully functional, this DTC does not affect vehicle operation, and no additional diagnosis or service is required for this condition. Replacement or reprogramming of the SCCM or image processing module A (IPMA) will not resolve this condition. To validate that the automatic high beam system is fully operational, cover the light sensor located in the middle of the dashboard to activate the automatic low beam headlamps. Push the steering wheel multifunction switch forward to cycle through both high beam settings which will be represented in the instrument cluster panel (IPC) as a white telltale (automatic mode - the high beams will not turn on while testing) and a blue telltale (manual mode - the high beams will turn on). If any of the telltales did not illuminate when the steering wheel multifunction switch is pressed forward, refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM)","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2026/MC-11032754-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2026/MC-11032754-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/11032754","components":[{"id":"steering","name":"Steering","parent":null}],"codes":["U023A"],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"F-150","year_from":2021,"year_to":2023,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2021_ford_f-150","2022_ford_f-150","2023_ford_f-150"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
