I've been trying to mount a dash accessory to the 1/4"-20 thread in the center of the dash, but everything I mount ends up facing the left side of the car, 90 degrees. I don't quite know if that's a design flaw/defect with the dash threading, or if I just need differently threaded screws...
Yeah, as a temporary solution, that works. You can also just reach up behind you and hold it with your fingers to test it.
Granted, others may have OTHER issues with their roofs, but I can say from personal experience and listening to other videos, that same sound is definitely coming from the...
I've driven over 3000 miles in my First Edition 4 door hard top, and can say definitively that the rattle comes from the hinge latches, not from the roof itself, the way it seats in place, or from the rotational latches. The hinge latch "grip" piece has a bit of play AFTER you've clamped it...
I suggest you do what I did, and just reach out directly to the marketing/R&D folks at companies you like most, and just schmooze from there! Most are in SoCal/Utah, at least as far as what I've been working on.
Just a note: The CG color is very dynamic, and it only looks a little minty in peak daylight, and when next to blue greys. The color is very hard to photograph accurately, and photos rarely do it justice. Almost everyone who has seen it in person has been floored by how well it actually looks on...
Now that's a fine Bronco... :cool:
Thanks for the shout, and I look forward to continuing to work with ya'll.
http://instagram.com/froncobronco for more updates!
(PS - Marly and the Fifteen52 team have been absolutely phenomenal to work with, in addition to making great products. Highly...
@BLMike very, very good. I'm still in transit but really need to find some time to journal it all. Lots of updates on instagram.com/froncobronco for now, big news coming soon.
Short story: most parts are going to take a few weeks for the vendors to manufacture still, but exciting stuff is coming.
Hmm... The site I got that from for the 2021 f150 says it "simulates a steering input" to trick the system and prevent Auto Start/Stop (or as I like to refer to it, "ASS mode"). Can anyone else provide more info? I, too, would be concerned of losing battery management features, whatever that is...
I changed the double horn honk, driver seatbelt reminder chime, and auto start/stop.
It's new ForScan software that they say is updated for new vehicle models. I don't think it's specific to the adapter.
Good news! Got it working with the help of the ForScan team, using the Bluetooth OBD device. The trick is... You need to use their latest test software, found here:
https://forscan.org/download/FORScanSetup2.3.42.test20210726.exe
They kindly ask to report any issues with it in the manner...
Just a follow-up, I believe this is the right answer. Looking at the Tutorial doc from the F150 forums, I noticed this is the only adapter that's got a note for 2021 MY vehicles:
So I've ordered it, and will give it a try tomorrow. Will report back results.
From my initial research, it seems to be a combination of Ford's new 2021 electrical architecture, coupled with certain kinds of adapters. I'll probably purchase a different, wired adapter and try that too before giving up and letting the forums solve this issue. If anyone else has seen this...
OK so I did some more digging because I loaded up the modules again today to do a restore, and it turns out they were already at the defaults. The modules aren't actually being written, and I'm not sure why. When I click on "Write" I get an output in the log that says "Service Procedure has been...
No, have confirmed that none of the three mods "took". I'm going to check the configs and at least confirm the changes were actually written. Then I'll probably load up the original settings until someone else can help figure out how to actually make these work.
Wow, this is a fantastic thread! I'm looking for a blacked-out First Edition badge to replace mine, has anyone created that yet? If so, can I pay someone to make/send it to me?
I tried a few today, but didn't really have much success. I tried three different ones: auto start/stop, seat belt chimes, and double honk when exiting. It still shuts the engine off at stop lights, and still chimes when I don't fasten a seatbelt and begin to pick up speed. Forgot to test the...
