Car Codes diagnostic trouble code
Some 2022 Bronco vehicles built on 13-Apr-2022 and through 20-Apr-2022 may exhibit an intermittent turn signal that blinks fast and diagnostics trouble codes (DTCs) B1497 and/or B1498 set within the body control module (BCM). To correct this condition, replace the appropriate left and/or right LED control module that corresponds with the DTCs set in the BCM. Refer to Workshop Manual, Section 417-01.
Code interpretation
What B1498 means
This code indicates Vehicle fault code with verified manufacturer evidence Its precise meaning depends on the reporting control module, complete failure-type suffix, model year, powertrain and software level.
Driver experience
Symptoms you may notice
A stored diagnostic trouble code or a related system warning.
Test, do not guess
Possible causes
The precise cause depends on the reporting module, vehicle specification, circuit condition and software level.
Evidence-led checks
Recommended diagnostic route
Save the complete scan and confirm the code against model-specific technical information before testing.
- Capture the evidenceSave the complete all-module scan, code suffixes and freeze-frame data.
- Prove the basicsTest battery condition, system voltage, power and grounds.
- Identify the reporterConfirm the module that logged the code and check circuit integrity.
- Compare live dataReview commanded and actual values under the conditions that set the code.
- Test before replacingUse model-specific wiring diagrams, pin tests and technical information.
- Verify the repairClear the code only after recording evidence, then confirm it does not return.

Before clearing
Can the code be cleared?
Clearing a code without fixing the cause removes useful evidence and may only switch the warning off temporarily. Save the full scan first; a permanent or repeatedly returning code needs testing.
Confirm the suffix, reporting module, model, year, engine and live data before replacing a component.
