I tried to fix mine myself. Did not work out so I ordered the Megohm kit. 10-minute install, easy as heck, works great. Ford should have done this from the get-go. Highly recommend.
Just looking at this, I may try making one from aluminum.
In the meantime, I'm glad to know it will pop back in. Headed outside to do that now.
Thanks guys!
This is where I'm at also. Mine is a loaded XLT FX4 with all the options checked - except max Tow. I looked at what Max Tow added and decided I did not need those things for the cost of it. All the issues I have with the truck are in the tech package, including the transmission control, but...
My Job 1 XLT was also delivered in August 2021. MPG since new is 20.1. I regularly see "This Trip" results of 23 mpg, and sometimes as high as 24.5. This is mixed driving, home to shop, 30 miles each way.
I don't understand this. I have powered my house twice using a simple cable I made up in 15 minutes from materials I had on-hand. No gyrations involved. It worked fine, and was MUCH quieter and more fuel-efficient than my neighbor's shiny new 7.2kw generator.
But back to the original...
Hey guys - get a ScanGauge

I used the 1st gen for years on my Ford escape Hybrid. You choose any 4 gauges to display.
Excellent product support. Mine was well out of warranty when the cable failed. They just sent me a whole new unit.
The 3rd Gen looks great...
So, if that learning cycle routine reprograms the transmission, I wonder how initial programming is done? Surely no one at the factory or the receiving dealership does that. If so, the transmission adapts it's programming to however the truck is driven the first 100 miles or so.
Sounds...
Also would like a cabin switch to disable/enable.
Even better - a push-to-talk feature using the overhead microphone to the external speaker. But that would probably get me in trouble ;)
SURELY some innovative hacker will come up with a great alternative use for this "feature"
Looks pretty straightforward.
I think I will use stickers for my small single-axle trailers and save the sensor for the future RV or car hauler. This will work just fie for my Jetski as well as the 4x8 and the 5x10 enclosed.
I ordered mine. CC with 6.5' bed, . I came from a 8-ft F350 and I used all of it frequently. I don't intend to work this one anywhere near as hard, but that 5.5 just looked out of proportion. Parking is an issue. This truck feels much bigger than my old F350 Crew 2WD with 8-ft bed. Turn...
I'm in Texas. I decided to buy a PB back in March. I started with the Costco program. the two Ford dealers in my area that were doing Costco ignored the program and quoted me like any other customer. Wanted me to come down and go over the options in person. I already had my truck spec'd on...
So I finally got my Powerboost XLT a few weeks ago. I took the Ford Finance at 3.37% to get the $1000 incentive. I would like to refinance at a lower rate, but my bank isn't much better. Looking for another financial institution that will do a new vehicle finance for under 2%. If you know...
