Is oil pressure one of the options you can show on the gauge?

Go pro mount on the dash.

Interesting, I went left. Mine is on the A-pillar. Tried 3M VHB and Gorilla tape. No dice, kept falling off. Ended up drilling it for a 3/16 stainless bolt, washers and nut.

Finally unlocked trans gear this morning on the iDash Pro by selecting General Ford Vehicles in the settings.

I gotta say the Pro seems a lot more limited than the older versions, if anyone's thinking about upgrading. Main benefit is programming from your phone instead of the iDash itself.

I'm really curious if you can display oil pressure with this. From the Banks documentation, it doesn't appear that you can.

Not with just the iDash alone. That's not a Banks thing, it's a Ford thing.

If you really are committed stubborn asf, Banks has a 4 port sensor manifold that plugs into the iDash. Running a 1/8 NPT temp sensor into the oilpan, and plumb a pressure sensor into the line, similar to what @SCB FabWorx did in this thread (albeit a mechanical line, not a sensor like the Banks), it is possible, and you still have two sensor ports on the Banks module.

Theres a PiD for trans gear apparently. @GooseTuned said he could add it to the dashboard of the HP tuner if wanted. That will be my route.

 

[GooseTuned]

Yep! Can be added via tuning

Dumb question, but why would one want to know what gear they're in?

Ford F'd up the Select-Shift in the Bronco SO bad..... They have the system tuned for the F-series P/U's that works so well, why the %$#@ didn't they just copy/paste???

My least favorite thing about my Bronco, so stupid....

Some of us are used to our f150s, having the ability to see what gear its in or shifting to.
Like seat memory, its just something we feel shorted of.
I personally like seeing what gear im in to see if its skipping gears or lugging.

Understood, I've never paid attention to it on my F150, now I"ll have to look for it!

That’s one of my favorite and most used features in my manual Bronco. Can’t hardly hear or feel the gear you’re in, and the shifter is tough to tell with a quick glance what gear you are in between 3/5 or 4/6 by looking at it. It’s the best I got since I don’t have a real tach.

Yeah, not just the F-150 guys miss it, my 2019 Ranger had it as well.
