  1. Ford removed 12v reserve power after car is off.

    My My 21 Lariat has always shut off with ignition shutoff. If that can be changed, im all for doing it.
  2. F-150 Hitch Receiver Weight Capacity

    I agree it makes no sense. When I researched this, it was pointed out by a reputable hitch installer in the Salt Lake valley that the hitch structure is not simply a bolt on to the frame unit like in years past. It is actually part of the bumper support assembly and exceeding the 5k lb carry...
  3. Hitch classification sticker in-readable?

    Just be aware that anything over 5000 lbs requires a weight distribution hitch.
  4. Increasing Radio On Time with Ignition Off.

    My 2021 Lariat only stays on for 10 minutes after ignition shut-off. If I push the power button it stays on for 20 minutes. Just enough time for me to eat my lunch. ?
  5. Lariat PB, possible to have orange running lights?

    I assume you are referring to the parking lights? I'm not sure about the parking light system, but I do know that the turn signal lights do not have wiring in the socket for running lights. It might be possible if you want the turn signal lights on full time. I've never seen this topic being...
  6. ADAPTIVE CRUSIE ISSUE

    I would look into your radar. Pretty collision assist messages can refer to it also.
  7. Turn signal tap for truck with quad LED headlights

    Incorrect. The turn signal is a stand alone 2 wire connector.
  8. Calling super cab long bed folks.

    Mine is a 21 Lariat 501A with 4A. I have the 5.0 with max tow and have experienced zero issues. As you can see in my profile pic, I have an aluminum shell which means I'm hauling around an extra thousand pounds or so of tools and supplies. Maybe extra weight might help your truck.
  9. Anyone install tilting headrest on 24+ F-150s?

    I did this on my 21 Lariat 501A. I ordered the headrest online and removed and replaced my covers on to the new ones. Very easy to do.
  10. OTA update stereo system

    I didn't get notified in advance, only saw that my dash settings were back to default. I looked at the update details and hoped it included the fix for the infotainment screen to begin on startup where it was left on shutdown. To my amazement, they did something right for a change! It felt like...
  11. Rear Brake Assist Unavailable

    I get this same message, but I have a construction shell with the camera at the top and no tailgate. I'm guessing you may have an alignment issue, but I have no idea how you might be able to adjust it.
  12. Amber parking/running lights

    There are only two wires to the tun signal socket. You would have to update the connector and add the park light wire to the new connector to get park lights to work in the quad setup pictured.
  13. Just a Little Boat Upgrade & Towing Experience

    Your receiver hitch is only rated for 5k lbs. You need a WDH to pull your boat. My boat weighs about 8k lbs loaded and my truck with the WDH sat with barely any change in squat.
  14. Amp Research Powerstep Wiring to CAN

    I have several things plugged into the obd ll connector including my Amp powerboards. I bought a splitter to add it all. Tapping into the controls was bad enough, I didn't want to do it with the power side.
  15. 2024 Productivity screen settings default

    My 21 started doing that after a recent update. The center screen always starts in the menu and not in the audio where it is when I shut off the truck. Hoping Ford comes out with an update to the last stupid update.
