Pinpoint Test P: DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) B129C:96, B129D:96, B13F3:96 Or B13F4:96

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Refer to VEHICLE EMERGENCY MESSAGING SYSTEM for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    REFER to: Blind Spot Information System - System Operation and Component Description .

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    SODCMC B129C:96 Left Front Side Sensor: Component Internal Failure Set by the SODCMC as a continuous memory and on-demand DTC if the SODCMC detects an internal failure or invalid radar data with tcccc he radar sensor.
    SODCMD B129D:96 Right Front Side Sensor: Component Internal Failure Set by the SODCMD as a continuous memory and on-demand DTC if the SODCMD detects an internal failure or invalid radar data with the radar sensor.
    SODL B13F3:96 Left Rear Side Sensor: Component Internal Failure Set by the SODL as a continuous memory and on-demand DTC if the SODL detects an internal failure or invalid radar data with the radar sensor.
    SODR B13F4:96 Right Rear Side Sensor: Component Internal Failure Set by the SODR as a continuous memory and on-demand DTC if the SODR detects an internal failure or invalid radar data with the radar sensor.

    Possible Sources 

    • SODCMC
    • SODCMD
    • SODL
    • SODR

  2. P1 CHECK THE SODCMC (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE C), SODCMD (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE D), SODL (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE LH) AND SODR (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE RH) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

    • Ignition ON.

    • Clear Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs) from all modules.

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Wait at least 10 seconds.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL AND SODR self-test.

    • Check the SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL AND SODR DTCs from the continuous and on-demand self-tests.

    Is DTC B129C:96, B129D:96, B13F3:96 OR B13F4:96 recorded? 

    Yes  GO to  P2
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to an intermittent fault condition. CHECK the SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL AND SODR connectors and the HS-CAN2 wires for corrosion.
  3. P2 CHECK FOR CORRECT SODCMC (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE C), SODCMD (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE D), SODL (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE LH) AND SODR (SIDE OBSTACLE DETECTION CONTROL MODULE RH) OPERATION

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect and inspect the SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL AND SODR 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 SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL AND SODR connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles TSB, GSB, SSM or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address this concern, INSTALL a new SODCMC, SODCMD, SODL OR SODR. REFER to: Side Obstacle Detection Control Module C (SODCMC) . REFER to: Side Obstacle Detection Control Module D (SODCMD) . REFER to: Side Obstacle Detection Control Module . .
    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.
