Any chance you could post an up close photo of one of the connectors from the WT-1002? It might help me help out the community; I'm putting together a detailed step by step guide to adding power fold mirrors to your XLT - including making your own wiring harnesses - and I'd love to figure out...
Hmmm. I used the tools on connectors I bought that fit the connector blocks but weren't exactly Ford's OEM spec because I could never ascertain which ones those were or where I could get them.
That said, I came in from the 'front' (i.e., closest to where the wires engage with the pins in the...
You need a removal tool; I bought a set from Amazon: Maerd Terminal Removal Tool Kit, 76Pcs Terminal Ejector Kit for Car, Pin Extractor Tool Set Release Electrical Wire Connector Puller Repair Key Removal Tools … https://a.co/d/6diw15C
So, I have a 2023 XLT with most of the toys - 302A, Max Towing, newly added power fold mirrors (doing a write-up on that that I hope will be very comprehensive and useful to the community), Co-Pilot 360 Assist 2.0, 360-Degree cameras...
I've read this thread with interest, since it seems it...
Yeah, in the video where I first found out about their harnesses, they looked great. The only problem - when I went to order them a while back, and when they were $140 plus tax and shipping, was they were unavailable with no mention of when they'd be back in stock. That's when I decided to make...
@BMCGC,
The terminals I used don't wiggle at all - they are quite tight in the 'channels' of the Molex connector blocks and engage the pins in the DDM, PDM and mirrors quite well.
However, the YouTube I watched, by @ElDeLa5.0 doing a mirror upgrade using the Boosted GreyGoose harnesses...
@HammaMan - I upgraded my XLT, which came with fully loaded manual fold mirrors, with ones that came from a Lariat with all the same features but were power folding. I built my own wiring harnesses as it was only a few feet of two strand 22 AWG wire needed to supplement what was already there...
Just to be clear, I swapped cameras in regular (not towing) mirrors, so am not sure what would happen if you tried to swap cameras between manual and power folding towing mirrors, or - if it's even possible - between non-towing regular mirrors and power folding tow mirrors.
I'm sure the...
No, everything on the display looks exactly as it did when it came from the dealership. All camera options, forward and backup lines, 360⁰ views, all as they were - which makes sense since the original cameras are in the new mirrors, so as far as the software involved is concerned nothing has...
Update: So I did mirror swaps with the new power fold mirrors I bought from a Lariat owner who added towing mirrors and swapped out the bottom of the mirror plates that contain the camera and puddle lights with the ones from my factory XLT mirrors. Everything came back precisely as it was, no...
I'm about to upgrade my fully loaded but manual fold XLT mirrors to power fold ones from a Lariat with all the same options. I ran into a reference early on about camera calibration needing to be done afterwards , but put off looking into it until now.
Reading about the difficulties getting...
When I was looking for mirror part #s, I used the Ford parts site (and others) that allow you to specify a VIN and thus limit parts returned in searches that are a valid potential fit for the VIN. Evidently, these sites have access to Ford's databases of features for each VIN so only return...
@noloco - thanks for all the detective work. I have a '23 XLT SCREW fully loaded with 302A and pretty much everything else, including Co-Pilot 360 2.0, max towing and 360 cameras, puddle lights, etc. I recently bought a set of regular, non-towing but power fold mirrors that came from a Lariat...
