Hmm, I’ve always understood that that particular tow bar entry within MyLink had to be activated via service tools for it to appear...
That was based on the fact that I don’t remember seeing it before I had my tow bar fitted and the service counter guy pointed out the new setting after the tow bar was installed.
The
VF accessories installation manual also states that tow bar programming is needed
This Accessories Installation Manual describes the install process for the towbar and the wiring harness package within the Exterior Structural Accessories section and Electrical Accessories section respectively. Specifically, for the wiring harness install, it states "once the installation has been carried out, configure the TIM module using TIS2 Web SPS. For further details refere to
Trailer Lamp Control Modul Programming Setup". Sadly, this later referenced section doesn't exist within the accessories installation manual itself or within the VF Workshop manual available as PDF
But it is what it is and if it’s always existed within MyLink, may be it should be returned to pre tow bar status via programming, so there is no difference in rear park sensor sensitivity between the two settings
