  1. BATTERIES 101 - Everything you need to know about lead acid, AGM, and LFP lithium batteries

    Properly charging a LiFePO4 battery is an issue he didnt mention. Our Bronco charge algorithm is not likely to fully charge one due to voltage being too low most of the time. Dakota lithium now says (buried in thier description) that there LTO and dual purpose batteries can start automotive...

  2. What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

    Just curious: 2nd comment ive seen about this. Why do you need to disable the infotainment?

  3. What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

    Have you attempted to lube the pivot points?

  4. What I hate about my Bronco, you? (edit) Or maybe I should have called it "What would you want if you were designing it"

    1. After 5 years, the ignorance and/or failure of Ford to test and correct issues with flat towing and a foolproof method that doesn't require pulling fuses, etc. So far (maybe 2K miles towed now) I've had no problems but it is a big worry. 2. No OEM or aftermarket option to mount a MagSafe...

  6. Flat Tow Engine Failure

    Sorry you had the dreaded flat tow failure. I set our 2024 up in June and probably have 1000 towed miles so far on our current multiple stop summer trip. I don’t believe the claims simply leaving it in flat tow mode would drain the battery in a short time. I tested mine by leaving it in flat tow...

  7. 【AIGMUX】We're launching a mobile phone holder with fast charging

    I want. Neat design. It is out of the sun pretty good, adjustable for screen viewing and not blocking what little out the window view we have, and wireless charging. If charging works thru my case, that would be great. Maybe a suggestion for specific cases for various iPhone's that support...

  8. First tow today. No problems.

    Yeah but it needs all the help it can get in the mountains.

  9. First tow today. No problems.

    Adjusted the braking sensitivity 2 times and got it dialed in. 180 miles. No problems except: 1) "check brakes" message when coming out of neutral tow mode. I have seen this before on my F150. Goes away as soon as engine is started. 2) To level out the tow bar with rather high baseplate hookup...

  10. trail riding Bronco vs sXS

    Just went thru same decisions but in the end, wife needed a new daily driver so we ended up with a 24 Badlands Sasquatch - LOL. We have a Newmar toy hauler motorhome (21 Canyon Star 3927) but it only has a 10ft deep garage (minus a few inches for some "stickouts."). So for more than a year, I...

  11. Flat Tow Tips (from 16K miles of towing behind RV)

    What Fordified said. No idea how many turns it takes to cause damage. Also depends on ambient temperature. The colder outside, the longer alarm takes

  12. Flat Tow Tips (from 16K miles of towing behind RV)

    I am currently using the 7 way connector brake control wire to send "brake light" from the Toad to an LED on the motorhome dash. All I need to do is turn the speed sensor signal into a 12V "solid on" (after X VSS pulses counted in Y time), or pulsing audio signal for a speaker drive and put it...

  13. Flat Tow Tips (from 16K miles of towing behind RV)

    I see what you mean. I went and looked at a video of a transfer case removal and found there is no exposed transmission shaft. So the next hope is an existing vehicle speed sensor on the transmission. I searched a ford parts site for "speed sensor" for my Bronco and 3 parts came up that are...

  14. Flat tow wiring diagram behind RV

    The Curt harness PN 58992 (FOR LED TAIL LIGHT BRONCOS) has the diodes built in. And it is "no cut." Unless you want to change the 4 way plug and wire it in to a 6 or 7 way receptacle (which I recommend). But 1) DIY wiring may be easier to stuff in the limited tail light cavities than the Curt...

  15. Flat Tow Tips (from 16K miles of towing behind RV)

    Thanks for the tips. In process of setting up our new 24 Badlands Sasquatch up for towing behind the Canyon Star. I will make up a checklist and laminate it. Probably include your extra steps about listening, depressing brake, and verifying 'off" as well. Im also mulling over a Hall effect...

  16. Why can't I have an OEM Roof Rack with Bronco Badlands with the 2.7 L EcoBoost engine?

    It’s 2+ years since your post. Any info on the company making them? In my case I need a light rack that would only be used to haul an 80 lb or so kayak and then only when being towed behind a motorhome so with no passenger weight.

  17. Charging While Flat Towing

    Im working on the same setup for the new Bronco that I have with two motorhomes and a 2016 F150 FX4 now with 40K+ towed miles on it. On the first motorhome I had to add the Aux +12 wire to the 7 way connector since it wasn't there on the Ford motorhome chassis. For that one I added a 30A self...

  18. Auxiliary switch labels (DIY)

    So I see a blue backlight for those. Did you use a blue translucent material or did you use clear material and the lamps themselves put out that color blue?

  19. Aux switch placard illumination color/flash/text change?

    Aux/Upfitter switches: Any way to change the illuminated placard color from amber to red, and possibly flash? Any way to change the text of the placard? I would like to wire up my aux braking system (for towing behind a motorhome) turn on to an upfitter switch. But it should never be on when...

  20. Ford offers employee pricing (below invoice) to all US customers April 3 through June 2 - "From America to America"

    We picked up our 24 Badlands Sasquatch 300+ miles away Saturday after shopping for several days online. Got prices by calling several, visited my local dealer and drove one, and got the rest of the prices off dealer internet ads. I have 17 listed on my spreadsheet. Some stated added fees in the...
