Last time I drove the truck was a week ago. Everything worked perfectly fine.
Started the truck today and noticed that the radio button is grayed out, can't press it. Audio On/Off button doesn't do anything. Volume is working but no sound.
Soft reset, radio is playing for a couple of seconds...
Was on a 1100 mile round trip drive (about 550 up, 550 back). Sometime in the middle of the first leg I noticed that my steering wheel is off center, leaning left. It was always dead on center.
I did not hit anything, not a pothole...nothing, I just noticed that about half way through.
Yes, it...
Can't find it anywhere. I know the two dots are max, and the grooved section is nominal, but how much oil does it represent? I believe back in the day it was commonly known that it is 1 qt between min. and max. in dipstick. Does anyone know if this is the same in the F-150 (in my case it is the...
I wonder if there is a way to increase the backlight level of buttons and switches only (HVAC buttons, radio buttons, the lights/pedal controls on the left, etc).
I do not like bright lights. My office is usually dark and the brightness in my vehicles are pretty dim at night. The problem is that...
Looking for new drill and impact. I had DeWalt before, still working but the chuck is a bit crooked for some reason. I have a grudge against DeWalt because of their customer service and I put my eye on Milwaukee.
Mostly home use, very little automotive use, if any. If the impact can undo the lug...
Like many others, I "fixed" my refusing-to-stay open Work Surface console cover.
Apparently, the two coins weakened the springs even more and now the console won't stay up even when the truck parks on a level surface.
Did anyone find a good and permanent solution to that, or found a good mod...
Never seen them before.
They look identical. It's nothing on the outside (tried to wipe it), and it doesn't seem to be inside. Looks like some kind of a halo of some sort, but I can't determine what's causing it.
I am not the OP on this thread about peeling paint , but I reported my truck with the same issue. I have an update, so I wanted to start a new thread.
Recap: 2021 Lariat, Space White, manufactured in KS, like all/most trucks reported in the other thread.
Found peeling paint in the roof's rain...
I swear, I do not remember even seeing the rear plates lights in the camera when the truck is in reverse.
Do you all see these lights when you are in reverse and I simply missed it, or is something wrong with my camera?
Looking to add reverse pods (Diode Dynamics) and the instruction page shows that pin 4 is the reverse light.
When I look at the connector diagram (C4484, Rear Lamp Assembly, RH), it shows pin 4 as reverse only if the truck is equipped with smart hitch. There is no other pin for reverse light...
I just paid for 3 day subscription to download some manuals and wiring data.
I thought there was an option to actually 'download' the files but I don't see that. The only option is to print/save it as .pdf. The end result is the same, but download is much faster.
Am I missing a download option...
Front bumper, center and lower moldings are being replaced so I understand where this message is coming from.
My question is - when they put everything back together, assuming they do it right ;) , should the error message go away by itself or is there anything else that needs to be done to...
So yesterday I got this notification bell on my center screen:
I click on "Update Scheduled to Install Tomorrow":
Curious, I click on "Details":
Checking FordPass this morning - No updates were installed.
This is the 2nd time it happens.
WTF?
I just finished updating all modules in my truck and finally brought it to 'current' status.
One of the new things (I don't know which module is responsible for that) is a new sequence of events when you turn Cruise Control Master on.
In every vehicle that I have driven, as well as my 2021 F-150...
So what is the common wisdom in regards to when is the best time (day/time) to purchase a 2-day FDRS license for a full 2-day weekend worth? I read somewhere here that if you buy it after midnight on Thursday (like 00:05 on Friday), your license will be valid Friday through midnight Sunday, so...
As reported in many threads, my 2021 Job 2 truck never, ever received an update. My SYNC software version was stuck on 21223, Revision 197, from the day the truck was born until about 10 days ago when I last checked).
I am on the MCLP list (Mongoose Cable Loaner Program... :D).
I don't if Ford...
21', truck has ~ 21K miles and is 26 months old, so clearly still under the bumper-to-bumper warranty.
In addition, I have 8 years, 100,000K miles extended warranty.
This issue is not new, I've had it for well over a year, but I finally decided to take care of it.
The front seal on the...
This is a pretty cool video of a blown Gen 4 5.0L complete teardown.
This doesn't look like a Ford dealership, the engine has 5K miles on it, it is a 22' model so it has to be under warranty. Not sure why would they not go to Ford for warranty replacement (unless of course they mistreated it...
I went to a different local dealer than the one I usually go to for oil change using their Quick Lane on a Saturday (simply because they could accommodate me on that Saturday and my "regular" one couldn't).
I knew I have two recalls: the wiper motor and the wire harness. Not too concerned about...
