Got it!! I did the same thing a number of times, but it finally worked!! Timing is very important apparently.

Okay. Maybe I’m waiting too long. I’ll keep at it.

I have two working fobs for my ‘23 Lariat Powerboost. I am familiar with programming a third fob from my previous Super Duties and have attempted to follow the instructions online for the F150–but it doesn’t work. I place a programmed fob in the slot beneath the cup holder. Turn ignition on...

I keep getting notices that my software is being updated. Does anyone know what the latest should be on my 2023 Powerboost Lariat?

Aha, CarPlay! I’ll do that. My center stack display comes on without anyone touching it or the key fob anywhere close. I hope it’s CarPlay. Next time I need generator mode, I’m going to disable CarPlay.

Old thread but a current topic for me. I wish there was some switch to kill all the lights in the cab when in generator mode with doors locked, but apparently there isn’t. But my question revolves around the center stack display. I turn it off, close the doors and lock them but when I come back...

HammaMan says I need a 3pole. Are you talking about the switches on the Reliance. If so, they are all three position switches: house, off, generator. The ground and neutral wires don’t seem to be switched at all; just the hot leads to and from the breakers.

I don’t have the X series. Mine is a 31410C manual transfer switch. What can I do to prevent both the Powerboost fault and sending voltage back up the meter box? I thought the switches on the Reliance box insured you cannot send power back to the incoming house wiring.

I am installing the Reliance Controls manual transfer switch. What ground and neutral problems will I encounter that would cause a fault at the truck?

Since you all dove so deeply into this, perhaps you can answer my question: I am exchanging my stock Perelli Scorpions for Goodrich KO2s. I’ll be towing a 7000 lbs travel trailer a lot. I was surprised how much more the Goodriches weight than OEM—20 lbs per tire. What effect will that have on...

I have other stuff from Builtright. This may be exactly what I ought to get. Thanks for the heads up.

This is the first vehicle I’ve had in forty years that doesn’t seem to have a standard 12 volt cigarette lighter receptacle somewhere on the center stack. I’d actually like to add one pointing upward flush with the flat area right in front of the BO center speaker, the area where you throw...

My battery is a Motorcraft H7.

That’s what I’m thinking. It’s a Motorcraft AGM. Something seems flaky to me.

I am consistently have my 12v battery read 12.4 volts about an hour after driving. This seems low to me. It seems like it ought to be 12.6 or 12.7. It’s the original battery probably about a year old. What should the voltage be?

My issue wasn’t dissatisfaction or envy (at least I hope not), but the reality that many times towing my trailer I can get going and don’t want to stop for five hours or so. If I get 10 mpg that puts me over 300 miles. I’d rather not be on a razors edge of running out of gas. But I’m fully...

Ouch!! $2300!! I’ve got a very nice Jerry can?.

Thanks for the info—I was under the impression I had a 26 gallon tank. Sure enough the manual says it’s 30.6. I agree that that will be big enough and not worth the effort to go to 36. If someone came up with a 40 gallon or so aftermarket, I might consider that. My concern is mileage while...

It’s beginning to seem to me that the 2023 Powerboost was only available with a 26 gallon tank. Does this mean that I could not do a replacement change to a 36 gallon tank myself?
