I would clear the codes and see what comes back, since you have had battery disconnect and or connectors and fuses pulled.
and then run the calibration for the (CCM) as that is what the code is (for the CCM) but ensure its vertically leveled as I posted above using a combo square

The Vertical (Alignment) is a manual adjustment
The Horizontals (Calibration) must be done with the scan tool or Forscan

After clearing all codes and recalibration - post any remaining codes

Once again, thanks. This is frying my brain and im afraid i bit off too much. In my younger days I could pick it up quickly. Not anymore.
Ill report back later.

BTW, I had charger on battery for this scan. Got it on recondition now.

I got a complete readout this morning.

That is indicating that the CCM needs alignment in the horizontal plane.

B142E:78 Forward Looking Sensor Horizontal Alignment: Alignment or Adjustment Incorrect

Thats my next job. Resting up a bit.
Just so you all know. Im dealing with newly retired (at home now) wife, both our moms in nursing homes, ac problem on rv and multiple doc apps, some from recent prostate cancer and another with macular hole in retina. A bit distracted. But persevering.

Looks like this newest scan verifies the alignment issue? My levels are all too large. Cant really see how to use even a smal one there. The front cover is terraced. The cover cant be open without removing the module from the pegs, and nothing behind the box. Ill figure it out.

Here's what I have to work with. No flat surface on front. Gonna get a small level like the one in the pic and fiddle with it. One turn at a time I guess.

Now, I do have this. Pressed tight against the 3 terraces and turned the screw until it came to 0 on level. If this didnt work ill get a small level.

The code that you have indicates horizontal (left-right) misalignment. The level is used for vertical (up-down) alignment. I would try the horizontal alignment, (level not used for this one).

Well duh. I just noticed the unit moving up and down as I turned the setting screw. I remember one of the codes mentioned something about sensors, right side. Ill check that next.

Ok, all codes are gone - (GOOD) now the last step is to (Horz - Calibrate)

I do not remember what Forscan labeled it as - you are wanting the one that is a simple - (Let it Run - Automated) and it will calibrate itself - as the current vertical level (position)
It should be labeled something like - CCM -Forward Radar and the (IPMA) - Forward Looking Camera

Basically - you are telling the module (electronically) treat the current mounted position as (vertically) level and set (Horizontal) as a learned calibration from that.

Noted that the module beside the CCM - (MAY) be in the line of sight for the CCM, so after the calibration and it still gives you issues. May be something to look into moving farther away

Awesome. Drove it a bit after last scan, in the rain. Error still there so ill get back on it in the AM. Shouldn't be too hard to find the one I need to address.
Odd that its happening now. Towed many 1000 miles behind a Class C and now a Class A. Never a problem. No front collisions. Only thing changed is this was the first trip with a different brake system.
And towed it 4 days before error popped up. Drained battery and these codes.

But has this module always been mounted in this exact location?
I am only pointing out (a possible) that it may be clipping the line of sight (Horizontal)

As far as the calibration - I may have the (2) CCM / IPMA backwards, one of them has you start the calibration procedure and then drive for 15 minutes with the scanner hooked up.
I think it's actually the CCM that requires this.

Note: It is a self-guided test that will tell you exactly what it needs, just follow the on-screen instructions - if you have issues with a failed calibration - The module (towing) device may be preventing the calibration to complete

No, I bought it in 2023 and its never been messed with. It was 13 months old and had 13,000 miles. Thus is the first issue I've had with it. Wife got rear ended 2 years ago and the rear bumper was replaced. Thats it.

Was the module (flat towing?) installed recently? Possibly it is interfering with the CCM radar view of the road. You may have to move it farther away from the CCM.

 

[RangerBill]

I would unmount that device at the driver's side of the CCM and place it inside the bumper temporarily. Clear the CCM code and test drive it to see if the code comes back. If it doesn't come back, the device will have to be mounted farther away from the CCM.
