  1. Problem with cruise control button cluster on 2017 Ford Ranger XLT

    The cruise control thing has happened to me a couple of times; actually, the entire switch bank on the left side of the steering wheel occasionally goes numb (cruise, screen buttons, etc). They have come back every time after shut down (what some call a hard reset)
  2. Lets Talk Aftermarket Stereos

    I found this one here:https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/2019-2021-ranger-4-inch-screen-to-aftermarket-head-unit-radio.24314/
  3. Lets Talk Aftermarket Stereos

    Some have already tried, done it and post it here, with varying degrees of success. What I gathered is that there is need for some sort of adapter that is not cheap, besides the new head. I too, have the sync 3 with the tiny screen. Lemme see if I can find the post(s)
  4. Bucking/Surging Epidemic

    I just joined the DPFE sensor replace club...noticeable difference. I went up down and sideways and coudn't find one of those things at $19...I ended up paying $59 plus shipping for a Ford part. What's funny is that on the fordparts website, they listed for$119 and came with hoses and bracket...
  5. First emergency braking event... Ranger wins my heart!

    yes, the XL (well, STX) screen turns red, flashes and the radio cuts off, replaced by a beep-beep-beep
  6. Diff lock always engaged in 4wd

    Ours and any other truck equipped with conventional four wheel drive will experience this; especially at low speeds. In low traction/low speed situations like gravel in particular. If your rear diff was locked it would have felt like the whole truck was moving sideways
  7. weird things lately...

    That's correct, it doesn't lock out tenth, just moves up shift points throughout
  8. Move gear to neutral w/o engine power.

    Get your Fumoto ready for the next oil change, I've used it in my last two vehicles (subaru, BMW and my truck...no leaks, mon!), the valve arm seats in a notch and it's spring loaded; and the beauty is that with a piece of 3/8" hose attached you don't have to take out the skid plate to drain the...
  9. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    I didn't have to move AC line, just bent wire loom bracket downward a little; no issues with stick hanging or anything else. The thing reads as advertised! As requested: my truck details are under my avatar thingie. My build date is late October 2019
  10. 2020 Ranger XL Brake Controller (Non-Towing Package)

    I know that there is a wire pair under the LH tail lamp that carries 12VDC as long as ignition is on (normally used for Bed accessory power), from which you could tap "trailer power" to the 7 pin; and the wire loom that connects to the factory 7-pin has the wires you need but only up to the rear...
  11. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    I think they would eventually save some money if they offered the manual option...just saying
  12. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    Yes he is at present trying to shake a new tranny from Ford
  13. My research into the 10R80 shift strategy

    No but I got a buddy with a '19 Lariat that has, and his tranny is doing the Msfitoy thing...he's had two valve body swaps (probably rebuilds) and still doing the weird shifts and lugging/bumping....

  19. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

  20. Manual trans?

    In the APIM module in FORSCAN you can select transmission type from manual to auto. Also, not all MT-88's are created equal; the ratios for the diesel are different from the ratios for the 2.3 stang and the Coyote V8 versions. The closest application for our trucks would be the 2.3 stang version...
