Just uninstalled my sync 3 upgrade from my 22 Maverick XLT and posting parts here for sale. Including harness (built as shown from this thread), non-nav sync 3, and compatible ACM. Model numbers in photos. System worked perfectly with known limitations. You’ll have to do your own forscan...
Anyone think it's possible to upgrade the base audio to the stock B&O system? I can see that the sub, amp and upgraded speakers can be purchased but not sure where to begin with wiring for the amp. Any insight would be appreciated.
Took some more photos before our trip this weekend. Standing about the distance of a following vehicle, I can still see the tail lights. From the other photos it looks like the kayaks flair out but they don’t.
Can’t happen when the kayaks are strapped in. I add a strap around both to each of the rail cleats. That way the whole sled and kayaks are strapped to the truck.
I wanted to share my solution for transporting 2 10’ kayaks in my Maverick. I’ve seen some of the mounts and racks available to buy, but this cost about $50 in parts and the rest was scrap wood from my garage. Works excellent and preserves visibility through the rear window. It’s very sturdy and...
So I got sync 3 working in my XLT Maverick. Everything works with a few exceptions. Satellite radio giving me a frequent but intermittent “antenna fault”. I think this might be a bad antenna so I’m going to try another. Do you know of any way we can tie into the stock antenna? In one of the...
Just curious, do you guys with lariat Lux and sync 3. Do you have the power flow app that shows your truck and whether it’s running on battery, engine, etc? My wife’s escape PHEV has it and wanted to know if the Mavs got that with sync 3.
I have an OBD2 pass through harness. I just need the corresponding pin outs for the male side of the plug. It’s the 16 pin plug that I can’t find a diagram for and how it corresponds to the back of the OBD2.
Do you know of any easier accessible areas where I can tap into those OBD can bus wires besides right at the OBD connector? Looking for a wiring diagram but coming up short. Wondering if you knew of any other places to grab those wires that you’ve found.
Thank you!
Wireless CarPlay works but only until you shut the vehicle off. Upon restart, I have to re-pair my phone to Bluetooth every time to get it to come on again. Also I was hoping to have the hybrid screens that are on my wife’s escape PHEV sync. 3 system. I also can’t figure out the xm antenna...
Still having issues trying to get sync 4 the way it should be in my hybrid mav. I think I’m going to try it out with sync 3. Do you have a pin to pin chart for wiring a sync 3 harness with the 4 extra wires for the gateway module?
So
After 2 days of wiring, I finished the harness and today I got everything in the Maverick. So far there haven’t been any explosions. I programmed all the as built data and it all seems to be working except a couple things. SirusXm is giving me an “antenna problem”. I can hear music when xm is...
Thank you for the response.
On the wiring diagram, when you say “remove from ACM and route to APIM”, am I removing the wire from the male end or female end of the harness? Also when you say “add to black ACM connector”, do you add it to the male or female end of the harness?
Good morning! I got all my parts in and I had a few quick questions. Please pardon my stupidity lol.
Am I correct to assume that when making this harness, I’m not removing or adding any wires from any of these connectors? Im just tapping into the wires I need to tap into?
What was your method...
Thank you for this great work! I'm looking forward to getting this done soon. All of the parts are ordered and on their way.
Is there any way you could provide more info for creating the harness? In the pinout diagram where you say "add to gray ACM connecter", it doesn't specify where on that...
The site does have a DIY harness area. Would the one you are talking about in the first post now located there? https://lljcustoms.com/collections/llj-diy-harnesss/LLJDIY
I've noticed this mod doesn't include swapping the actual sync touchscreen display. I'm not sure if it's just me, but compared to my wife's 2022 Escape hybrid with sync 3, this Maverick screen is very dim even with the brightness turned all the way up. Would this mod increase the brightness or...
