The cigarette lighter disconnects from the vehicle battery a while after engine shut down. You have to find a (fused) path directly to your battery. I use a rubber? fuse holder connected from battery to Anderson PowerPoles. Be sure to connect ground beyond the battery current sensor (i.e...
My Bronco is named Onager (look it up). Itās 6 months old and gets lots of hours in the Mojave Desert. Its next add will be a winch if I can find a way to preserve ACC. It replaced a Rubicon. It went to the local dealer 6 days ago for 2 days of work on 10 recall/warranty items. So the Rubicon...
I do air down for off-road. Thatās how I discovered the tire pressure readings on the trail status display. I was already aired down when turning on the display-so had erroneously assumed that it had been there all along and I hadnāt noticed. More details: the low pressure warning comes on at a...
After more off-roading I discovered that tire pressure readings only appear on off-road status screen after airing-down below the warning pressure threshold, around (maybe) 35psi, could be lower?
Also discovered that only rear lockers are available when in 4L drive!! Still better than my...
Ford Accessory website says that it in not compatible with my MY25 Bronco???? Although would think that cargo light assemblies are common across models and a Y connector would work if cables are long enough.
Concur with the MY25 observation. Also the rear seat lights are angled away from left-right axis. Perhaps using a Maybettā for each light would fit? But the lights would aim in the wrong direction?
Does the Mustang strip light have connectors that interface with existing MY25 rear light harness?
I signed up with Alexa when I got my MY95. Alexa and Siri donāt seem to get along? Now when I ask Siri to take me somewhere she agrees, says she will send instructions to Google Maps but that never happens. Havenāt tried it with ios26 yet? Not sure how CarPlay would get updated? Doubt that...
I live in Los Angeles area. It hasnāt rained since getting my latest Badsquach. Will be on the lookout. Morning dew does leave streaks down both front windows. I expect the same for my head if real rain returns to this area. Drip rails are so 1900sā¦ā¦ā¦
My ā25 Badsquach was delivered by the dealer with a coating of greasy and very glossy tire shine. I brushed past the spare and it coated my clothes with black gunk. 3 passes with car wash soap removed enough shine that I was willing to let my Jeep friends see it. NO GLOSS allowed on an off-road...
Iāve had good luck with Americaās Tire. Their road hazard guarantee is good insurance. Has more than paid for itself. You can buy their insurance on any tire regardless of where/how you got it. Iām looking at having to replace a crappy OEM GY Territory with <1500 miles on it. Killed by a 3/8ā...
I agree that Ford mashed together the High/Lux options. Thatās how in appears on my window sticker.
After poking around the settings menu I found this page. Looks like Ford removed the very useful FM HD feature and kept the useless AM HD. There are 5 AM HD stations in LA, all single channel...
My MY25 Lux has AM HD but I canāt find the FM HD. Of course there are very few AM HD stations in Lalaland and there are many FM HDs stations. Having HD was one of the major reasons for getting Lux package! Dealer is useless so far š¤¬
Were you in Descent control mode? My non-sas BL, MY23 threw a similar code after 15 minutes on a long downhill section of a trail. My brakes were so hot that I could smell them when I got out to check. Like your experience it told me to check the manual. You know, the one that only exists...
@JL8jeff. I am anything but a lead foot, that phase of life is in the rearview mirror. Trailmates say that I drive like an old man, not too surprising since I am an old man. Starting to think sum ting wong under the hood. You have motivated an escalation. Canāt wait to hear the dealerās...
