Ford Fusion 2012 Service Advancetrac warning

Instrument cluster failed and could not communicate with the network. The cluster board was replaced and still could not communicate with the network. The connectors that run along the car which there are many of were examined. It was found that the connectors near the oil filter were damaged from collections of splashes of oil as a result of many oil changes over time. Those connectors were fixed and the problem was resolved. (163,000+ miles on the car).

*God bless you Lisa* 😆Thank you for putting the solution you found in the description because that’s the missing piece to my puzzle. I had an oil change and about a month later everything went to crap

[@johnflasza2040]

Thank you for posting this-I am sorry that your instrument cluster was replaced for naught-Its pretty sad Ford knew of this problem a few years ago and fixed it under warranty-they knew the connector was made inferior and moisture,water and oil got inside the connector and made the cluster go haywire- these cars sometimes wouldnt start when the moisture got in the connector-so after warranty is over- pay up at the dealer even though they know its a manufacturing defect-my neighbors car was doing this-I was able to correct it for him-all I did was take screws out of door to replace oil filter- open it- the 4 pin connector is close by- its in front of oil filter taped to another wire on the bottom radiator support-I unplugged it water dripped out of it-I blew air through it from compressor(both ends of the plug)-got hair dryer-heated both plugs to dry out completely-reconnected plug everything works as it should-this car had low miles- it took 7 years for moisture to get inside and cause a problem-so changing the connector wasnt done here

So! i had this same problem. no lie i watched every video including this one. Literally the same lights and symptoms. I put an OBD2 and it said error. untimely, My problem was the wires near the battery had become corroded and was not getting power to the PCM. there WAS power to headlights, cluster, radio just not the actual computer itself. since i took it to the ford house and paid 1536 the car has ran great since. could i have done it had i known the problem? yup -_- But! hopefully You will have a better idea of where to start. The Traction control "AdvanceTrac" will not cause the vehicle to be unoperational

Fill your tires to 43 psI first. Take off the negative cable from your battery while your vehicle is off but the key is in the on position. This will reset the computer. This trick worked for 2011 Ford Fusion se 2.5l.

[@shaynabayna8836]

@@ItsBravoP no, i just got a new used one. My issue started bc it sounded like i hit something on my passenger side floor board. Like a pop. Whatever that was had to do w my tire. Idk. Took it to the ford shop and they tried to get me! Saying that my whole epas system was screwed and it would cost a crazy amount of money to fix. They reset it bc they couldnt find a real issue saying that it would happen again, that resetting was a temporary fix. Which they reset it bc my car was still drivable but hard to steer. I had another mechanic who has the whole computer system check it and everything was fine! Just a glitch in the computer from whatever that loud pop was that shook my system. It can throw everything off!! No issues w my car at all since then.

[@original2858]

Does you car cut off and tires spin but don't want to go? Mine does. Advance Trac popped up and won't go away. I wonder if this was because of this.? I was stuck in traffic. Cut car on took off front tire spin. and car wouldn't go. Jerked. Cut off and back on it took off. Done this four more times and then finally worked. Could this be from advance Trac?Also, power steering service now is on my car. Had replaced and still locked up so it's not the power steering if I had the whole freaking thing replaced. So why is it on? Seems no one knows why Also, can an alignment make the electrical thrown off to cause these messages behind my steering wheel?I had three new tires replaced but Monday headed to get new tire rods along with alignment. Wondering if that might fix the problem?
