U055EInvalid Data Received From Front Controls Interface Module B

  • Generic OBD-II code · Network
How the car detects it
Where the front switches are split over two panels, the second one is front controls interface module B. Ford uses exactly this name (FCIMB): on 2023 Transit vans with SYNC 3 Lite, rear-only parking aid and no front sensors, the parking aid disable switch sits in the FCIMB; for vehicles built between mid-March and early June 2023 it did nothing because the park aid module was misconfigured, fixed with the PAM configuration app (SSM 51837). That case shows that a fault visible at panel B can lie with the receiver. U055E covers B-panel frames that arrive with implausible content; U025D marks lost contact and U0557 the main panel A, which on the F-150 could freeze under heavy CAN load (SSM 46902). No bulletin cites U055E. Switches on the second panel may not work.
