Hi all, Is there a Forscan hack that can reset your audio volume to a predetermined level each time you start your truck? If often forget to turn down the volume when I get home and would prefer a nice low volume then when I hop in the next morning. Thanks.

I have been working on a spreadsheet to compare Forscan backup files for changes. Over the years I have made a few along with changes Ford made along the way. While looking through Livnitup‘s spreadsheet I noticed the type of rear speaker (Rear Satellite Speakers - 727-01-01 position 5) can...

Hi all, while making some simple Forscan changes I came across an odd setting in the IPC module (see attached photo). The setting named “Powertrain Hybrid” is set to “non-hybrid” which I find odd. Can someone with a PB confirm if they have the same setting? My truck is functioning fine as is...

Hi, me again. I want to find the ignition/accessory wire used by the ACM to trigger turn on/off. I want to use it to trigger my Kicker Key 200.4 and a powered subwoofer. I own an XLT and therefore a standard non-BO radio. Currently I am using DC offset to turn on the Key and it’s blue...

Hi All, This afternoon when pulling out of a parking space my ‘21 XLT PB felt like it was in 4WD on dry pavement while making tight turns. I quickly checked and confirmed the truck was in 2WD. His continued while maneuvering through the parking lot. I put the truck in 4WD and then back again...

I justed added a subwoofer to my truck and I am trying to get it to turn on with the remote wire coming from the Kicker Key 200.4. My understanding is if the Key is set up to use DC offset as the power on signal, then the blue remote wire coming from Key will have 12 volts and can be used as a...

I love my truck. Strong wind damage in west Michigan but the house is powered. I do need to work on better load balancing.

I have now upgraded my speakers, added. Kicker Key 200.4 amp. I wanted a little more base to I added block off plates and sound deadening mat to all four doors. When I ran the Key audio setup the eq settings really changed and now I have two much base for my taste. I have a few options, turn...

Hello, I have noticed possible misfires at idle whenever I tow. Of course I notice this only while in tow-haul mode as the engine does not turn off when at stop lights. Once off idle the engine is smooth. One last observation - whenever I am in tow-haul mode the engine sound is more...

Hi all, my 2021 PB is starting to develop a harsh downshift from seventh to sixth gear when I am towing. The trailer I tow weighs in at approx. 5000# loaded, not terribly heavy. I sometimes can feel a bit of harshness in the 3-4 upshift as well, but only when cold and under normal driving. I...

Hey all, When does the audio system in our f-150s turn off and stop outputting signal to the speakers? When adjusting the gain on my Kicker Key 200.4 I could hear some static coming from the speakers as I turn the pots. My truck was off at the time and the display was dark. I have the amp...

Hi all, I just completed the install of a Kicker Key 200.4 amp in my 2021 XLT screw with the seven speaker factory audio. Prior to this installation I had upgraded (Jan. 2024) all of my speakers to Infinity Reference series. The sound quality was improved but I wanted a bit more volume and a...

Can a T-harness for an amp be installed onto the factory head unit without pulling it out? I am almost complete with my Kicker Key 200.4 install and I would rather not pull it to make the final connection. Thanks.

Hey, I am trying to find the location of connector G302. I believe it is behind the left rear seat but I have not been able to find it. Anyone come across this or have a diagram showing its location? Thanks.

I am going to be installing an amp behind the rear seat of my 2021 XLT. My plan was to tap off of fuse 28 since I have an XLT and there is no factory amp. Imagine my surprise went I went to test if fuse location 28 was wired (unused fuse plugs often are not) and finding a 30 amp fuse...

To everyone who celebrated, may you have a merry Christmas. And to those who do not, may you find peace and joy.

Hi all, Last night I was out and about in my ‘21 XLT. It was snowing so I put the truck in Slippery mode. The TC made the shift to 4WD just like it should. When I went to go home I did not specify that I wanted to stay in Slippery mode so the truck went to Normal mode - but it stayed in 4WD...

I just sighted an XLT with a dead DRL segment about two week ago. Now I am seeing another and another. Its like my brain has locked into spotting the abnormality. 🤪

I hope everyone has a happy and blessed Thanksgiving.

Hi all: It seems I have another coolant leak. I pay close attention to my coolant level given I am on my fifth heat exchanger. So yesterday I noticed my coolant level in primary reservoir had dropped from the max line to the middle of the safe zone. Naturally the first thing I did was...
