170 Transmission Disabling and Enabling the Hill Start Assist Feature Your vehicle comes with hill start assist already enabled. If desired, you can disable the feature by following the procedure below. The following procedure must be completed within 45 seconds or the process will have to be repeated. Begin this procedure with the ignition turned off. This procedure is for both disabling and enabling the hill start assist system. 1. Apply the parking brake to make sure the vehicle is not moving. 2. Turn the ignition on. 3. Place the vehicle in neutral gear. 4. Slowly press and release the brake pedal five times - make sure the brake pedal is completely released each time. 5. Rotate the steering wheel at least one full turn to the right and return the steering wheel to the original starting position. 6. Rotate the steering wheel at least one full turn to the left and return the steering wheel to the original starting position. 7. Slowly press and release the brake pedal five times - ensure the brake pedal is completely released each time. When the procedure has been completed successfully, the ABS icon in the instrument cluster will flash: • three times indicating that the feature has been disabled. • twice indicating it has been enabled. Once the feature is programmed as desired, it will remain in that mode until the above procedure is repeated. Note: When the AdvanceTrac® system is disabled (see the Traction Control chapter in your owner's manual for information on how to do this), the hill start assist feature is also disabled for the duration that the AdvanceTrac® system is in that mode. Re-enabling AdvanceTrac® will also re-enable hill start assist. Note: If you have used the above procedure to disable the hill start assist feature, then enabling or disabling AdvanceTrac® will not effect the hill start assist system. 2014 05+ Mustang (197) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing, May 2013 USA (fus)
