    Electric Issues

    Ford Pass not working is one of the classic signs of the older Sync 3.4 versions. Go to the settings and make sure you are on the latest, SYNC version 23188.

    Variables Affecting Transmission Fluid Level Reading

    No one is going to read a level with the front end on ramps or jacked up. If you use front ramps, you should at least attempt to level the car by jacking up the rears on jackstands.

    FS Ford Performance Tuner Explorer ST or Platinum

    You should contact Ford Performance support. The Ranger forum is saying they will rest the device and give a voucher for another VIN.

    FS Ford Performance Tuner Explorer ST or Platinum

    This is the first time I'm hearing about someone selling their FPTune. If you unmarry it from your car, are you sure you can simply install it on another car? Other tunes are one per VIN#. Even Livernois, which uses the same device will charge $300 to be able to use the device with another...

    take some wheel center-to-fender measurements and compare that to what others have posted here in the forum.

    Springs installed wrong?

    at least from the picture, the rears do seem a little lower than typical but the fronts look about right. is it possible they left out the rubber spring perches in back? I dont think its possible to install rears up front and vice versa.

    Called Out On Tune

    It was unplugged for 30 minutes but I didn't do anything else. You're saying that's not long enough unless you press the brake pedal? Why wouldn't the cars own systems drain any power supply capacitors upon removal of battery power?

    Called Out On Tune

    Ignition cycle counter does not reset. Was 1825 last I checked. Now 1840 immediately after unplugging negative terminal for 30 minutes. There is no "turn lights on manually"...the headlight switch has no power.

    Lowering Springs Pros and Cons

    Who did you order from? I bought it from Lethal a few weeks ago and they are on backorder until the end of the month (or so they say)!

    Called Out On Tune

    Do you have a reference for this? I looked at "ignition cycle counter" using my OBDLink app and it says 1825, despite unplugging the negative terminal of my battery just last week.

    Transmission Issue

    Any idea when the last tranny was installed? If under 2 years, you may have some coverage.

    Alignment/Steering Linkage Issue

    How heavy are you? Is it possible driver weight can slightly skew the suspension such that it pulls slightly left? When I had a BMW, I've heard that the dealer performs alignments with a dummy weight in the driver's seat. I have had multiple alignments over the past 4 1/2 years of ST...

    Front Lower Control arm Bushing Leaking Oil

    Was this at the dealer or an independent? If not the dealer, I'd be highly suspicious. Say what you will about dealerships but some independent shops and especially chains are unscrupulous. Also, I would never recommend getting an alignment "checked". It is not to their advantage to check it...

    Rear camera recall.

    Did they need to replace any of the hardware or is this a firmware fix?

    Rear camera recall.

    I got the notice last week saying they now have parts for corrective action. Not going to do it until I hear it actually does fix things. Isn't this their 4th go around??

    No alternator output at idle?

    Well, you might want to unplug your BMS also just to make sure your alternator is not the problem. After unplugging BMS, "charging system service soon" will appear at startup. Voltage should always be 13.5V or higher. Im having am having a hard time researching the BMS module. I think it...

    No alternator output at idle?

    FireDemon, was your fix still holding. I have been noticing lately my voltages fluctuating wildly... going as low as 11.9V. I suspect my BMS is failing. When I unplug it voltages are in 13.8-14.4V range. At least I know my alternator is good. Will probably replace the BMS next...

    Headlights stay on??

    anything blocking the light sensor that is sitting on top of the dash in the middle? Weird quirks like these might benefit from pulling the negative terminal of the battery for a few minutes and letting everything reboot.

    HELP! FP Tune issue

    That is smart as hell. Kudos to you for playing it safe. Once you have the software on your desktop and communicating properly with your ProCal, you have nothing to worry about for future updates. On my Livernois (apparently same device), it updates the desktop software and device firmware...

    HELP! FP Tune issue

    Well, there are some good reasons to have the stock tune. Like when you want to tow. Honestly, this whole dealer installed stipulation for warranty is stupid for a device and software that is intended for the end-user.
