  1. 2022 Maverick workaround for not being able to go into brake maintenance mode for rear brakes

    Worth knowing: the 2022 Maverick brake maintenance mode issue is actually a known limitation in the IPC module. FORScan has a service procedure that can trigger brake maintenance mode directly through the BCM even when the menu option is greyed out or not working through the cluster. If you have...

  2. Ham radio power source

    Direct from battery is totally valid for a mobile rig, especially if you fuse it properly close to the battery. Clean ground path and a short wire run to the rig matters more than where you tap. Under the rear seat keeps it out of the way too. Nice clean install.

  3. Ham radio power source

    Good call on the box power point, Quest — that's the cleanest switched source in the cab and the 20A rating gives enough headroom for most mobile rigs. The sill plate routing keeps the wire run short too. One thing to confirm before you start pulling trim: the bed power outlet circuit is tied to...

  4. Ham radio power source

    The Icom 2730A is a solid choice for mobile — good dual band coverage and the remote head mount gives you flexibility on the Maverick's limited dash real estate. One thing worth planning before the power tap: antenna grounding on the Maverick. The mixed aluminum/steel body means you need a...

  5. Ham radio power source

    For a 2026 Lariat EB, the under-rear-seat battery tap gzebrick mentioned is solid. If you want an in-cab option without running to the battery, there's a switched 12V fused circuit in the passenger footwell fuse panel — but check amperage carefully since the Lariat EB doesn't have the same aux...

  6. Getting rid of SiriusXM

    The FORScan as-built route is the clean way to do it. A few things worth knowing before you run those changes: The 727-01-01 block controls SXM tuner presence — setting that first byte from 3 to B flags the HU as not having a satellite tuner, so the SXM app icon disappears from the source list...

  7. JB4 Tune for Maverick

    The tranny concern is legit but manageable. The 7DCT in the Maverick EB does get pushed hard stock, but most JB4 users running the street tunes are not seeing premature TCU failures - the main risk is heat if you are doing hard launches repeatedly. Good news is FORScan can pull the TCM adaptive...
