2017 F-150 Backup Camera Install & Activation (OEM/Factory Camera)

In this episode I show how to install a stock factory backup camera in a 2017 Ford F-150 XL that did not come with a backup camera.

Here are steps to activate the camera and then turn on backup lines:
1: Connect ForScan, follow the prompts when connecting.
2: Under the FCDIM module, on the 7A5-01-01 line/field, change the 2nd digit from a "0" to a "2". Save/write the change (follow the prompts). (this activates the camera)
3: Under the BCM module, on the 726-39-02 line/field, change the 6th digit to a "1". Save/write the change (follow the prompts).
4: Click the wrench icon and run "LIN New Module Calibration". This makes the truck recognize the changes and calibrate the modules (follow the prompts).
5: Disconnect ForScan
