With respect to 2025 Lariat trim. Unless your foot is resting on the gas pedal while you are incapacitated which puts it in OVERIDE and defeats the ACC.
No, the 4-way flashers don't come on. Unless you have a collision of substantially severe impact? I have not personally tested that one...
Today I had the service writer at Conway Heaton FORD in Bardstown, KY try to convince me that my 12vdc USB adapter and my OBDII reader were causing my 12vdc battery drain issues. This was after explaining to me the alternator was charging ok.
I explained to him that is a hybrid and has no...
I might add that the required voltage needs to be verified for the LED indicators. Raw LED's don't care for more than 3vdc. A voltage drop resistor may be required. Also verify the voltage at the VT-GY wire.
Gee this hits home for me. I have a two hour per day commute, I'm on vacation through the 28th and my Maverick went into that battery saver mode as soon as the temperature went below freezing. I have an appt Friday to have the 12v battery tested and hopefully replaced. I have a solar charger...
I don't want to discourage your creativity but I just can't see this being comfortable in anything other than a milder climate.
As far as a design exercise, Bravo 👏 nice work. A redesign with closer fitting tolerances could yield something practical. Perhaps?
I have a friend that's living in...
I would suggest running a wire to the dashboard and pick up the illumination from the illuminated switches down there.
What is the part number and source that you used to obtain the Ranger switches?
FYI: The Fusion destroys a battery every couple of years and locks you out. It sucks crawling through the back seat to release the trunk! I gave it to my brother with a fresh battery and all maintanence performed with new tires. I included a trickle charger. It appears that this truck will need...
I am disappointed in that all of these years Ford has not figured out how to properly charge their hybrid 12v battery also the undersized battery is a joke with no cold weather reserve to speak of. I owned a 2014 Fusion Hybrid and now a 2025 Maverick hybrid Lariat and the past three days I'm...
My gas guage seems to work just fine. I top off my tank at fill up as much as the truck will allow and drive 60+ miles to home and it usually stays on full. If I'm really in a hurry and don't fully top off and drive very fast getting home then it's usually on the first tick down. When I get down...
The center display accessory power shutdown after "key off" seems to be shortened to about 10 minutes. If I'm watching YouTube when this happens and I restore accessory power to the radio, it glitches out for about a minute and YouTube won't function until after I reboot the radio. Hold down...
I run with 255/50R20 Summit Trail Climber SUV² in the warmer months. For winter driving I have 235/75R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2. I'll be installing the 17's in a couple of weeks.
The Ford dealership changed mine today at 13,814mi. They said it was filthy and I drove through construction zones twice daily. Mostly highway, city and on my land which was very dry and dusty this year.
The cabin filter was $100 for my '25 hybrid AWD and the engine air filter was $40. I had...
