I had the same issue as stated earlier on this thread. Finally took truck in for its oil change and told dealer that the running boards stop working when trailer is attached, ambient lights turn themselves off for no reason and the setting for auto shut off after 30 min turns back on. Told them...
I came here looking for the answers. My truck started doing this after the sync update a couple months ago. I hooked my trailer up and when I shut off truck boards didn’t go out. Next time they worked. Next morning didn’t. Last night picked up my other trailer worked all the way home this...
Exactly! What does that have to do with back up sensors and what in the world do running boards and trailers have to do with each other and why did it not do it the other times I towed!? I could maybe see it happen through one shut down/start up cycle but twice, come on Ford….. I also don’t...
So this is the maybe 3rd or 4th time I have pulled a trailer with my truck. Pulled my equipment trailer before and never had the issue but today I hooked up and drove home when I went to get in truck after shut down for a few I noticed the power boards didn’t deploy. Went into settings and found...
Mine was two fold it was the LED built into the motor and the fixture on my ceiling. I never got that truck programmed. When I switched the motor a couple weeks ago we tried the programming and it worked really quick. I would try a standard bulb and see if that is it. If you have a house fixture...
This was my issue with my old opener and truck. Tried for weeks and never got it to program. Opener company said it was the LED lights. I have a Led in my garage fixture and the ones in the opener. When I replaced my opener the truck programmed fine. They told me that certain LED lights emit a...
Mine did not work with the learn button but using the remote it only took a minute. Make sure you erase the button before trying it, if not it doesn’t take. My old door I could never get to work the answer on that one was the led lights on the motor were causing interference.
I have never seen this diagram before. Wow that is a good explanation. I can pull my 36ft bumper pull camper with or without a weight distribution, for sway control there is a huge difference in with or without, visibly there doesn’t appear to be much change in stance of truck. Never weighed...
I think the OP is researching which is good I have seen some others take every word as gospel. In the world of internet trolls, some basement dweller who has never towed a trailer in their lives and drives a moped could be giving advice on towing and capacity! I mean you and I could be those...
I will admit I have maxed my trucks out more than once but I towed and drove large trucks most of my life. Still on an internet website people giving others comments of your truck is capable of more not knowing the true set up of the truck and equipment is a little brave. A stock built truck can...
That’s the best way. Air bags help with ride and all which is good but doesn’t fix an overload problem. My rant wasn’t toward you it was more of a I guess pet peeve of mine. Towing can be dangerous for those who don’t take the time to research which you asking questions and researching is great...
In my honest opinion. I purchased a truck designed by engineers and built by a manufacturer who has built many trucks for various tasks. If you spend the money on a package built by this team then drive off the lot, sell the tires and rims, change the shocks, add airbags, leveling kits and...
I have had no issues with scraping as of yet even with my low trailer on the lowest setting I didn’t see any issue with potential scraping. I guess if you were loaded down and the 3rd ball was down in the right condition maybe. But I had this same hitch on my 2019 250 that was one inch lower...
I have the 3 and have had it for several years. I have used the 1 7/8 at least once and it was nice to have. I believe the rating is the same on the 3 and 2 ball hitches. I have used it to pull heavy equipment trailers campers and flat utility trailers. 5 inch may be a slight bit to short, I...
I will have to load my work phone back in. I still have odd glitches like CarPlay not reconnecting, the settings screen for the phone being grayed out then it popped up. I will reload the other phone and try it but sure seems useless if you can’t use CarPlay at the same time. Guess it may not be...
