  1. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    Here's a link to the Bronco Nation Towing a trailer: From what I can see here the Factory Trailer Tow Option gives you this feature on your screen under the Features Screen. Clicking on that shows the Trailer Sway Control and a Powerpoint which gives you a Towing checklist. When the Computer...
  2. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    After mounting the plug in the stock position as seen in the picture above I can see it's going to get scraped off the first time I come off a steep decent. So I'm going to relocate it facing down on the backside of the bumper. I'm going to double insulate it as it's now going to be closer to...

    What you were hearing was probably the EVAP Leak Detection Pump. Here's an overview of how this works: he EVAP leak detection control module consists of a vacuum pump, a pressure sensor, a 0.02" reference orifice and a switching valve. The vacuum pump is used to apply a vacuum across the...

    This module makes it a full 7 pin with tow controller. Everything except a tow module
  7. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    Since I have already purchased the Tow-Pro and Ford 4-Pin Module I'm going that route. The price for doing the OEM Module is about $682, and the cost of doing the Ford aftermarket 4 Pin harness and added 7-pin Tow Pro is about $434 plus incidentals, ie. wire ties, silicone, double stick tape...
  8. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    That makes sense. The Kit from Amazon is $237 and the Harness is $22. The Ford kit on the accessories website is $339
  9. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    When you order the Tow-Pro Elite you will also need the separate harness that lets you plug it into the connector by the gas pedal. This harness is not part of the kit. The REDARC part number is TPH-007
  10. DIY Factory Tow Package using OEM parts with Forscan As-built Data (without error codes)

    Great write-up! I'm now wondering what the Tow Module actually does? It has a Theft Signal Wire, a Park Wire, and 2 CAN communication wires to the BCM. The Theft Signal could tell the BCM there's a trailer attached. As a result, this may disable the Theft chimes and do something to the rear...
  11. Tow Package arrived - contents inside

    I missed this post. I thought I had read all the replies the other day. Looks like the harness is the way to go. Thanks for pointing this out!
  12. 7MT - Selecting Reverse

    When it won't go into reverse push the pedal to the floor and kill the engine. If it then goes into reverse the problem is in the clutch/hydraulics. If it still won't go into reverse the problem is internal. If this were my vehicle and I determined it's internal I would ask for a new...
  13. Tow Package arrived - contents inside

    I thought I read somewhere where the connector was B+, Ground, Brake, and CAN (Controller Area Network) Anyway before purchasing the harness I would make sure the signals are there using a voltmeter. They may not be there because the Tow Module isn't installed. If the signals are there then the...
  14. MGV cleaning tested after Badlands submerged in mud water hole!

    If this ever happens to you it is important to check both differentials and the transfer case for water intrusion. If there's water in there the quicker you get it out the better. In most cases the water won.t get in but it can if the gearbox is hot and the water is cold. I have had it happen to...
  15. Tow Package arrived - contents inside

    I don't think I would buy that harness. All you are looking for is the brake signal, power, and ground.. That harness sends CAN Signals to the Tow Module which you do not have. What I'm going to do is just back probe that plug where this harness plugs in and find the brake signal, power, and...

  17. Rubicon Trip Photo Gallery

    Great pictures! I haven't been on this trail in 5 years but I've done it many times both forward and reverse. My first trip was with 31" tires and open diffs. That was back in 1976 when I got my first FJ40. Good times on the Rubicon. Thanks for sharing the pics!
