Making My Car Safer!! - Ford Lane Keep Assist Retrofit 

Adaptive cruise uses a radar module behind the bumper. It is not part of this system

I do not know for the MKX but I would assume it is similar to pretty much every other Ford right now with EPAS (Electric Power Assisted Steering). I had to replace my windshield because I had the basic mirror that uses a plain old style metal mount for the mirror. The Fusions with LKA have a mirror that twists into place with a completely different style mount. It is likely that you have rain sensing wipers and automatic high beams already so you wouldn't need to change the windshield. If you are looking at the mirror from the inside you will see a large plastic shroud around the mirror then you are probably in business. If all you see is a small 1in x 1in "shoe" mount then you will have to replace the windshield. If you have the space on your Mac then I would just use parallels. A lot of guys do this without issue. I personally have my mac setup with Bootcamp but I think that isn't supported on the M1 macs. Parallels is the way I would go personally since you can technically get everything you need for free if you know where to look. ;)

@@ChadMees what part of Kansas are you from? Anywhere close to Kansas City? I’m not sure about the EPAS and that’s what kind of scares me before going into this. However I do have the rain sensing and automatic dimming components built into my rearview mirror. I am so surprised with the interchangeability of things between the fusion and the MKX/edge. I went to the junkyard and got apart from a ‘13 Focus from my 16 MKX.

Sorry for the delayed reply. RU-vid didn’t notify me. I am south of KC in Overland Park/ Olathe area. I would assume you have EPAS because Ford does this to no longer require a hydraulic power steering pump. I’m pretty sure all of the ford/Lincoln line uses this system except for the heavy duty lines like the F-450

@@ChadMees headed to raymore this weekend, went to school in shawnee...know the area well. Ok can I email you re: "where to find". :-). sorry for the multiple replies before. I only meant to send you one.

@@waynerowe8477 Nice! yes you can email me. My email is on my channel under the about tab. You should be able to see it there. I do not want to write it here in the comments because it will just open the door for scam emails! If you already sent me an email I have not received anything.

I don’t think my harness had a part number on it. I know you could just get the pins and add wires to your current connector if you cannot find the harness. I believe it is only 2 wires that are added if I recall correctly

@@ChadMees alright i'll have to look into it. Thanks for the help tho👍 Edit: for anyone else looking. I managed to find the part number for the harness: FG9T-17C712-EAY0D

I’m not sure on the Kuga. It is programmed on a different architecture if I recall correctly. FORScan can modify some of the asbuilt for your car but not all. I believe your programming is more similar to the Focus and can be accessed through the FOCCus software. I’m not 100% sure that’s the name of it but the CC stands for the architecture of the system

@@ChadMees thank you. Is FOCCus software separate to forscan?

@@dandoesdetailing5709 yes it is. I’m not familiar with it. It’s possible you could still use FORScan but I’m not 100% sure since I haven’t done it.

@@ChadMees thanks, just looked into it, think I'll just use forscan. Can I ask where you located the as built information to enable lane departure etc.? Thanks

Chad, which Configuration is all this under? Thanks

Link is in the description. The FORScan team recommends the Obdlink ex for firmware and programming

Thank you so much❤

I was able to retrofit my friends ford Taurus without adding the assist button. All I did was change the default setting to on with FORScan rather than “customer last used”

I considered it but I do not really need it.

I believe it will but I am not sure 100%

Glad it helped. Hopefully your retrofit wasn’t too challenging. For me the hardest part was finding someone to install the glass since it’s not what my car came with

This video shows everything that is required to add lane assist on the Fusion or Mondeo. Other cars may require different hardware/software

It should. If you already have the automatic high beams it’s pretty easy to add.

Sorry for the late reply. Mine is a 2013, the first year of the new body style on the Fusion

Yes it should

I believe you can but it might take a little trial and error with the programming in FORScan. I helped a friend add it to his 13 SHO even though it was only available after 14. He did have auto high beams which made the swap practically plug and play

@@ChadMees do know what parts I will need to make it work

At a minimum you need the mirror assembly with the camera. If you already have the auto high beams then your windshield does NOT have to be changed.

@@ChadMees My vehicle didnt come with auto high beams

do I need to change my turn signal switch

No the steering wheel doesn’t need to be changed. The only thing that has to change is the mirror and the turn signal stalk

Yes I did it on my friends 13 SHO?

Aw man that’s dope you think you could help me? I’d definitely compensate you

What year is your sho. I don’t think it will Work prior to 2013

Should but I don’t know if there are any special steps. I’ve done this on a Taurus and Fusion. If you already have auto high beams it’s pretty straightforward and just requires the mirror replacement and programming
