WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may cause damage to the connector. Use only Rotunda Flex Probes (NUD105-R025D)

NOTE: Before replacing the camera windshield defrost heater, windshield or IPMA for a camera windshield defrost heater concern, verify the integrity of the wiring, connectors and terminals on the camera windshield defrost heater jumper harness.

C1 CHECK THE IPMA (IMAGE PROCESSING MODULE A) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

Ignition ON.

Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the IPMA self-test.

Is DTC B12D8:11, DTC B12D8:13, DTC B120C:11 or DTC B120C:13 present?

Yes	For DTC B12D8:11 or DTC B120C:11, GO to C2 For DTC B12D8:13 or DTC B120C:13, GO to C5

No	The system is operating correctly at this time. INSPECT the connectors, wiring and the camera windshield defrost heater for damage or poor connections.

C2 CHECK FOR SHORT TO GROUND WITH THE IPMA (IMAGE PROCESSING MODULE A) CAMERA HEATED WINDSHIELD ELEMENT DISCONNECTED

Ignition OFF.

Disconnect: Camera Windshield Defrost Heater C919 (Except Raptor).

Disconnect: Camera Windshield Defrost Heater C9048A and C9048B (Raptor).

Ignition ON.

Using a diagnostic scan tool, clear the IPMA Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).

Perform the IPMA self-test.

Is DTC B12D8:11 or DTC B120C:11 present?

Yes

GO to C3

No	Except Raptor, INSTALL a new windshield. REFER to: Fixed Glass . For Raptor, INSTALL a new camera windshield defrost heater.

C3 CHECK THE IPMA (IMAGE PROCESSING MODULE A) CAMERA HEATED WINDSHIELD ELEMENT OUTPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

Ignition OFF.

Disconnect: IPMA C9224 (Expect Raptor).

Disconnect: Interior Rear View Mirror C9012 (Raptor).

Are the resistances less than 3 ohms?

Yes

GO to C7

No	REPAIR the affected circuit.

C7 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPMA (IMAGE PROCESSING MODULE A) OPERATION

Disconnect and inspect all IPMA connectors and related in-line connectors.

Repair:
- corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary

Reconnect the IPMA connectors and related in-line connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

Operate the system to determine if the concern is still present.

Is the concern still present?

Yes

CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new IPMA (except Raptor) or INSTALL a new Interior Rear View Mirror (Raptor). Except Raptor REFER to: Image Processing Module A (IPMA) . For Raptor REFER to: Interior Rear View Mirror .

No	The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
