Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Configuration For Trailer Brake Control (TBC) Functionality

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2013 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2013 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The same IPC is used for vehicles with and without the TBC option. TBC functionality is enabled or disabled using the scan tool. If the vehicle is equipped with a TBC module, but the IPC was not configured for TBC, the TBC module shuts down, no TBC information is displayed in the message center and DTC U2202 sets in the TBC module.

If the IPC is configured for TBC, but the vehicle is not equipped with a TBC module, TRAILER BRAKE MODULE FAULT is displayed in the message center. This symptom could occur if a replacement IPC was installed, but not configured correctly. For information on the TBC programmable parameter, refer to PROGRAMMABLE PARAMETERS  in Inspection and Verification.
