  1. Hybrid Towing trip report & MPG stats

    Thanks. I was thinking grounding it to the frame would be adequate, but I wanted to check.
  2. Hybrid Towing trip report & MPG stats

    I'm installing the same. I have a question. Did you run the white ground wire from the controller harness to the negative post on the battery or did you just anchor it to the frame. If you attached it to the negative post, where and how did you attach it? With the hybrid sensor there, we're...
  3. Where to find reverse light wire

    Thank you all for your help. Much appreciated.
  4. Where to find reverse light wire

    It sounds like it would be easier and just as effective to tap into it at the taillight. Is that correct?
  5. Where to find reverse light wire

    I'm in process of installing a 7-pin trailer connector on my 2024 Hybrid (Lariat). I understand the reverse light wire is coded gr/br, but where the heck do I find it? I'd like to tap into it before it splits to the two backup lights. I could tap into it at one of the lights, but I fear having...
  6. Temperature Codes (ForScan Lite or Torque)

    Well, that didn't work completely. I added the Ford specific PIDs, but when I go to add a real time data display/widget it shows for all the Ford PIDs, "No data received." This happens with both my OBD II devices. One is an inexpensive interface by BAFX Products. It connects via Bluetooth. The...
  7. Temperature Codes (ForScan Lite or Torque)

    No problem. I'll take a look, but the post from Tbone289 solved the problem. Thanks. That did it perfectly. I don't mind using Torque. It just seems odd to me that ForScan doesn't have the needed PIDs. Thanks again.
  8. Temperature Codes (ForScan Lite or Torque)

    Whoops! I'm not seeing any image or description of what you are suggesting.
  9. Temperature Codes (ForScan Lite or Torque)

    I'd like to keep an eye on my temperatures while towing (oil, transmission, coolant, engine, etc.). But I'm only finding the module for engine coolant temperature. What do I need to be looking for? Thanks.
  10. Towing 2700 pounds with 2024 Hybrid?

    Yes, I know I would need to add a 7-pin connector. I just wondered because I saw a note that the 2025 hybrid model could tow 4000#. Are there substantial modifications or was Ford just being ultra-conservative on what the truck could handle? A 2400# base weight camper has substantially more...
  11. Towing 2700 pounds with 2024 Hybrid?

    Would this be idiotic? How about if electric brakes were installed? (And, yes, I know that weight exceeds the stated limits.)
  12. 2000 watt Hybrid inverter as generator

    Note: I don't know when I'll ever get to it, but I do have Forscan Lite on my phone, so at some point I can watch the HV state of charge while also watching the 12V battery voltage. That said, I expect to find as the 12V battery drains that the HV battery keeps it charged, then the ICE kicks in...
  13. 2000 watt Hybrid inverter as generator

    First of all, thank you @not null for the mention. Like you, our plan is to use the 2kw inverter for any extended power outage at our home. Although I'll also use it off site on occasion. Yes. But I'm not following your concern that it won't do much. Obviously, it won't run an HVAC system...
  14. Where to get windshield replaced

    Update: Everything went as planned. Here is the summary: Claim not submitted to insurance. (More on this later.) Safelite called and replacement scheduled. I was very emphatic that it had to be OEM glass or I would walk away. Safelite sent invoice for review. It specified the OEM glass and...
  15. 2000 Watt Removable Inverter Installation

    From my initial testing, I know the 12 volt battery isn't allowed to drain too far. I doubt it goes below 11 volts at the worst, but I don't know for sure.
  16. 2000 Watt Removable Inverter Installation

    Nothing new to report. I did run it for about a half-hour for some outdoor equipment. The draw was just a bit over the 400 watt inverter built into the truck, but I was busy and didn't have time to do any testing. I also tried to run my dust collector on it, but the surge tripped the...
  17. Where to get windshield replaced

    I already received the invoice from Safelite. It specifies the OEM solar & acoustic glass. Insurance called back and said if they submitted the claim specifying OEM that it only had about a 50% chance of being approved, as they were only required to replace it with "like" glass. BUT if I paid...
  18. Where to get windshield replaced

    UPDATE: I checked with Safelite and two local places. Of the locals, one could not get OEM glass and the other didn't call back with a quote. The one local quoted $997, including taxes and calibration, but it wasn't OEM glass. Safelite quoted $859 (including taxes, calibration, and...
  19. Dashcams: What's on your Maverick windshield?

    I purchased the Neideso 360 off Amazon. I've been quite happy with it. After having been in an accident last week, in our other vehicle, I'm glad for having a dashcam in it. The other party cannot deny it was totally their fault. I have it wired into continuous power, so I can take advantage...
  20. Where to get windshield replaced

    Thank you everyone! I would have had no idea about the OEM and acoustic glass, the camera recalibration needed, or the extreme variances in pricing. I've haven't pulled the trigger on anything yet. Although Safelight is an hour or so away, they are sending me a quote. I've also contacted a...
