  1. Symbol of a red triangle with an “!” In the middle of the triangle

    Surprised no one mentioned scanning obd codes. If there was nothing else displayed, I’d scan it ASAP. My guess is there is more information on the main display which the OP didn’t show us.
  2. Ford Issues Do-Not-Drive Advisory for Certain 2021-2026 Maverick; Owners Urged to Contact Dealerships Immediately (June 1, 2026)

    A Ford employee posted the info on Reddit. The issue is ball joints that are not fully seated in the control arm. The top of the ball joint should sit flush with the top of its mounting location. If the ball joint it recessed, that's a bad one. From the imagery it looked like a bad one down...
  3. Experiments with tire pressure on my Lariat

    I suggest you buy a good dial tire pressure gauge. TPMS is not an accurate measurement. My 2025 TPMS reads 3-5 psi low. Our 2020 Escape read 1-3 psi low with the factory sensors, but is now accurate with whatever generic sensors Firestone installed as the factory sensors died.
  4. % Ford Pass App doesn’t work

    That's not the app, that's your 12 volt battery charge level being low. Well known issue with the hybrids. Search the forum for "battery saver mode" and you will find pertinent discussions.
  5. Need direction: sudden drop in gas mileage

    Bad gas at the last fill up seems possible. As mentioned, when did you last change your air filter? Have you pulled the spark plugs to see what they look like? If you don't run top tier gas, when was the last time you ran some Techron through the engine to clean the injectors? When was the...
  6. XLT windshield replacement with acoustic lariat glass?

    I have an XLT and notice lots of wind noise on the highway, but I'm a soundman so I notice stuff like that. I don't see the benefit of acoustic glass in my truck as the noise is obviously coming from air flow across the fender/door gaps. Double gasketing should tame that, but it doesn't bother...
  7. Recommend to me a quality tire pressure gauge?

    TPMS readings on my 2025 run between 3 & 4 PSI lower than my 2 handheld dial gauges and 2 pumpe which are al within 1 PSI of each other. Hot, cold, no difference TPMS is always 3-4 PSI low. That said, one of my gauges is a 30 year old snap-on which is still accurate. Pencil gauges are cheap...
  8. USB flash drive - sorting files

    Yeah, I quickly hit the next track button on some :cwl:
  9. USB flash drive - sorting files

    As partially mentioned here, the audio system indexes the file by reading the tag information. It then plays them in alphabetical order by song name. It doesn't sort by file name, so if you want them in a particular order you would have to re-tag all of them. I'm not in my truck now, but I...
  10. Fuel Type and carbon buildup on the valves

    Your 26 has both port & direct injection and won't suffer from the carbon build-up of the 22-24 which were purely direct injection. As long as you buy top tier fuel, or add your own Techron (or similar) you shouldn't have an issue.
  11. DIY Floor jack and jack stand saddle: I've never felt safer

    I agree, also the grain structure of oak is very different than pine, spruce, fir or whatever that 2x came from.
  12. DIY Floor jack and jack stand saddle: I've never felt safer

    Ooh! Wait until that 2x6 splits down the middle! I recommend using plywood, as in 2 sheets of 3/4" in place of that 2x lumber. I've used many pieces of 2x as a jack pad for many years and they all split eventually. I would never use lumber as a jack stand pad!
  13. Swap rear USB charging plug for a normal 12v cigarette lighter plug?

    USB is 5 volts. I haven't pulled it apart since I use it for USB, but that's typically not converted at the port, but it's typically done under the dash with 5 volts running back to the port. Maybe someone else has pulled it apart and can give a definiteive answer.
  14. I'm using FORScan app for windows need to find where to look in the app?

    If a person were to search the F150 groups there are answers to this question......
  15. Increased fire risks

    It's a good thing gasoline powered vehicles hever catch fire, oh, wait...... :unsure:
  16. Blinding reflection off bonnet

    I have the BAP and have never noticed glare off the hood. As others have mentioned, it may be your seating height & position. I'm 5'11" and have the seat as low as possible.
  17. NEW STEREO SYSTEM. NO BASS!

    For a test I would disconnect the rear speakers and see if the amp see sub signal in all modes. It's possible the DSP is flipping the polarity from all to driver mode.
  18. NEW STEREO SYSTEM. NO BASS!

    Did you tap a front speaker or rear speaker for signal?
