What does it mean if the trailer is at its
maximum angle or the system
deactivated by trailer angle?
You are at the maximum controllable
trailer angle for the system. Place your
vehicle in drive (D) and pull forward to
get the truck and trailer back to an
in-line position. If this message
consistently displays, this could
indicate the sticker is incorrectly
placed, the trailer needs to be
recalibrated or the drawbar or the
trailer dimensions are outside of the
supported range. The system is
designed to work with drawbars that
have a license plate to hitch ball center
measurement of 9–18 in (23–46 cm)
when installed. The system is designed
to work with trailers that have a hitch
point to center of the axle or axles
measurement of 6–33 ft
(1.85–10.05 m). Do not attempt to use
drawbars or trailers that have a length
outside of this range as the system
performance degrades and could
cause improper system function.
Check that the correct trailer is
selected in the touchscreen. Verify the
sticker is placed according to the
instructions. Then, delete the trailer
from the system and repeat the setup
process to calibrate the trailer.
What does it mean when the system
tells you to take control of the steering
wheel?
The system is no longer steering the
vehicle and you must take over
steering. There are four reasons the
system could display this message:
1. You have touched the steering wheel
when the system is steering. Avoid
touching the wheel during system
operation.
2. You have exceeded the maximum
speed of 24.9 mph (40 km/h) for the
feature.
3. The system no loner detects the trailer.
4. An internal condition for system
operation is not met that requires your
vehicle to return to manual control of
the steering.
What does it mean if the system does
not detect a trailer that is setup with a
sticker?
The system requires a clear view of the
sticker placed on the trailer. You must
keep the camera lens and sticker clean
for the system to correctly operate. If
the system cannot initially detect the
trailer, it could be necessary for you to
change the lighting conditions by
moving your vehicle and trailer or
waiting until the conditions change.
See Applying the Trailer Reversing
Aid Sticker (page 347). Some trailers
are not compatible with the sticker
and camera system.
