Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
I got that code once from the IPMA. Since it is not currently present, just clear it. Mine didn't come back. Communication errors seem to happen occasionally between modules. Sometimes an OTA will cause it.

Do you have any more info like it wasn't present, then you did x, and now it's there?

i have tried clearing it several times. I honestly just now paid real attention to the DTC. I have made a few changes:

glare free headlights
50/50 view
Disable seat minder
Enable camera at speed
Walk away lock

i have noticed when my front sensors activate the front camera does not display at times.

I would undo all your changes. Then do them 1 by 1 until you end up with the DTC or Camera issue. Reset modules after applying changes.

Is there any major issue with leaving it? I haven’t came across anything concerning. Just wondering.

Other than wonky front camera operation? Probably not.

Has anyone figured out how to see all camera views at speed
If I understand Your question correctly, then yes -- pls see the FScan changes for several camera views listed in the 1st post. I did them all, and I can see the sides,split sides, rear etc. at speed.

Yeah, I put that there because if you do the changes in the first post then you will see most at speed. The ones that go away are the front view and 360 ones - which I'm not sure are useful. But one person enabled the front ones - but I don't remember what they did. It's probably somewhere in these 320 posts!

If you really want the front ones also and find it, let me know and I'll update post 1. But you should get bed, tail gate, 50/50 at speed which are the most useful.

Here is the thread I was thinking of. Scroll down and someone got front cameras - I think it has to do with enabling off road mode. Never discovered the settings he used.
https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/way-to-keep-front-camera-view-while-driving.24794/

Ya he never said how he did it. I figured out he just used the forscan ICE spreadsheet by enabling cameras at speed which my vehicle already has. Not sure if it’s the 24’s or all lightning’s have that now and then he enabled rock crawl cameras. It’s very buggy though. When you have those settings enabled every time you start vehicle it defaults the screen to the rock crawl camera and then when you go from reverse to drive it goes to rock crawl camera and doesn’t turn off until you exit the screen manually. It would be nice if it would time out and then if you want to use the front camera at speed you can. It’s just to buggy for it to work I think unless I needs some playing with for our vehicles.

First of all, thank you to the people who have provided information on re-configuring my truck via ForScan. Last night I successfully enabled Silent mode, changed to the European mode for seat belt warning, and changed the clock to 24 hour mode.

Related to Silent mode, is there a way to default the headlights when you turn on the truck to either parking lights only or off? Where I park at home, my headlights point right my neighbor's bedroom window. I always dim the lights to parking lights before I turn to back into my driveway, and with my prior truck would only turn on the parking lights until I was turned onto the street. I would like to be able to do that with my Lightning.

The closest that I have found is "Prevent headlamp switch from defaulting to Auto position (2021-2025)" listed on the common tab of Livnitup's spreadsheet. The headlights will start up where ever you left them.

@K6CCC This is the change from the spreadsheet. Let me know if it works for you and I'll add to post #1:
BCM 726-74-01 xxx* xxxx xx-- change 0 to 1

BTW, this is a dealer service pet peeve of mind. They turn the switch from Auto to Off and don't turn it back to Auto when done. Wife remarked she noticed her head lights were off (just DRL's). Had gone for service the week before.
Edit - added it was BCM
