My heated steering wheel only stays on for 5-10 minutes. Then, with the light still on and not touching the button, it just stops heating, even with the light staying on still indicating it is on. It’s also just lukewarm at best.

Has anyone had similar issues? Trying to verify if it’s supposed to act like this or not before i

you are correct, it turns off automatically around 10 mins. I think I just recently saw a post about potentially changing something in the API, ForScan.

It also cycles the heat on/off at times! Yes, there is a forscan change that makes it stay on and also increase the temp of the steering wheel!

Hi there. This heated steering wheel concern doesn’t sound like something we want you to experience with your F-150. Could you please send us a PM with your VIN and the name and location of your Ford dealer? I'd be happy to look into how I can assist you on my end.
