BLIS® and CTA Message Center Function

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: CTA system faults may not be detected until the transmission is placed in reverse.

NOTE: The BLIS® and CTA system menus in the message center are not available when a MyKey® restricted key is in use.

The BLIS® can be turned off by using the blind spot on/off function in the message center. When the BLIS® has been turned off by the driver or if a system fault is present, the BLIS® RTT in the message center remains on. When turning the system on or off, the exterior mirror Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) flash 2 times. When the BLIS® is turned off, the driver cannot receive any alerts. The system remains off until turned back on by the driver.

The CTA system can be turned off by selecting the CTA system on/off function in the message center. The system defaults to on with each ignition cycle.

There are some system faults that set Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) in the SODL, SODR, DDM or PDM. These Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) can set a message in the IPC message center that displays BLIND SPOT SYSTEM FAULT and/or CROSS TRAFFIC SYSTEM FAULT. There are also symptom based faults that do not set a DTC.
