I like analog speedometer and tachometer needles but also like a big center screen so that’s why I got a XLT 302A.
The XL center screen looks too basic
In the recall notice, this explains why vehicles waiting at the dealer get parts in a few weeks while owner kept vehicles waiting for parts wait with no end in sight.
My local dealer uses Zak Oil Booster. My first oil change was free and they used it. I don’t know if actually did anything but I do my own oil changes after the first one without snake oil products.
Everything was good. I transferred the BLIS modules from the factory tail lights to the Chinese ones. I did do Forscan changes to disable bulb outage detection because I didn’t want to use resistors.
LED bulbs in halogen tail lights are terrible as well. They don’t illuminate evenly or uniformly .
Just get OE style Chinese made tail lights on eBay. I have 2021-2023 Chinese Raptor tail lights and the brightness and color are great. No moisture intrusion issues either. They only cost me $250...
If your dealer/service manager is good, they can advocate to Ford to get a rental for you. My dealer set me up with a rental truck while waiting 7 weeks for all of the axle recall parts.
Could be your lights are not wired the same way as factory.
When I used the 2nd and 3rd lines, they made the turn signal and brake lights work independently.
Here are the complete values from a 2023 Tremor 402a with factory LED tail lights. Bold numbers are what should be changed...
Yes no center jacking point in the front for a floor jack is a bad design. Toyota trucks I’ve had always had a center jacking point. You can’t really use the cross member as a jacking point either because of how it’s designed. So I have no choice but to jack one side up at a time and cringe...

OEM ones definitely have better quality but these Chinese ones seem to work fine and I can’t bring myself to pay $1200 for new OEM ones.
I’ve been thru several more rain storms and cold...
Unplugging the connector inside the tail light assembly should only change the color from red to amber. It should not change the function.
The XLT trim is programmed by default where the top and middle lights function as turn signal and brake lights together. If you want the turn signal to be...
Never mind I figured it out. I downloaded the As-Built data for a 2023 Raptor and changed a few more values to match it. No more DTCs for my tail lights now.
Search for “MZOrange Raptor Tail Lights”. They are sold under multiple seller IDs at different prices but I‘m pretty sure they all come from the same seller and factory.
I installed Raptor style LED tail lights and I disabled the bulb outage detection for the brake pos and turn signal lamps with Forscan. So it’s not hyper blinking and everything is working as normal.
However scanning for DTCs show:
B1247-15 (Left Rear Turn Indicator)
B1248-15 (Right Rear Turn...
How long did it take for the temp to get up to 96 C with all of the idling and brake torquing?
with normal driving I never seen my trans temp get to 205F / 96C
I was getting tired how sad the XLT taillights look. I also hated how dim the XLT LED reverse light were. I replaced them with 2021-2023 Raptor Style LED Taillights. They were $250 from eBay and made in China.
1. You can leave them Raptor style where the top and middle lights function...
I guess I got lucky. My old bolts weren’t broken. I took my truck to the dealer for other reasons and they asked if I wanted to do the recall. It took 7 weeks for the parts to come in. I dropped it off mid Sept and got it back early Nov.
I bought EBay Raptor style LED tail lights that came with wiring harnesses. It included resistors which I won’t use because I plan on using Forscan to disable off bulb outage detection. However I do have a few questions:
1. Is this the correct value to disable the rear brake and turn signal...
I also had TCU connection issues where I couldn’t connect to my truck via Ford Pass, usually within 1 hour or more after shutting off my truck. However my issue might be different than yours because 2023 model year doesn’t have TRON for the TCU..
It generated a few U2402 DTC codes related to...
