I took NoVaJimmy's advice and bought an FX4 instrument cluster from car-part(dot)com. I also bought the console switch from the same truck so I could enable hill descent control.
The donor truck had cross traffic and bliss so when I installed the instrument cluster in my truck I received cross...
I re-read through the owner's manual and it does mention "pre-arm" time of 10-20 seconds - after which the security system will arm. This was in a section describing the LED behavior. And, since I don't have the LED, my brain just skipped over and didn't read it. lol
I'll experiment tomorrow...
I think I figured it out. I did a google search and found someone having a similar issue on their F150. The answer? After I lock the truck, there's a delay before the impact sensor activates. I couldn't find this in the operating instructions that came with the perimeter plus; but, the F150 post...
EDIT: There's a delay between locking the truck and the impact sensor activating. A post in a different forum said one minute. I waited five and then the impact sensor did pick up movement.
I ordered a Ford Perimeter Plus vehicle security system (KN1Z-19A361-A) and installed it today...
So far, I’ve seen posts complaining the BCM is reset to as-built configuration during the turn signal recall (where they presumably update the BCM software).
I plan to use FORScan to back up each module before taking my Mav in for service during the next oil change. That way I can restore...
Ordered from Five Star Ford Dallas, sales manager Sam Sallam. The process couldn’t have been easier. Sam was easy to work with, great communication, and I paid MSRP.
Same. I bought a FORScan license the week my truck arrived and started the upgrades. Honestly the truck is a great value; but, the modifications from this forum make it fantastic. :)
This is a Bronco Sport Outer Banks 6.5" instrument cluster ( M1PT-10849-ANF) that I purchased so I could swap the gauge face with my Maverick cluster. 12,569.3 miles on the odometer.
I believe it to be fully functioning; however, I didn't drive my Maverick with this dash installed. I did hook...
@NoVaJimmy - Thank you very much for being extremely helpful by answering so many of my questions and thank you for going through all the effort to sell me the Bronco cluster. 😁 I really like the way the dash looks and I think I'm finally done with modifications. That is until someone discovers...
I think I figured it out. I had to enable Hill Descent Control in both the IPC and ABS modules. At least it now notifies me on the IPC when I press the button. I need to find a nice hill to test it as I assume (wrongly?) that it won't engage on a flat area.
@NoVaJimmy - I'd like some input from you when you have time. :)
I received my molex pins and got going on the project. I could see that Pin 7 on the IPC connector (C220) was already present and running to Pin 10 on connector C302 (the connector that interfaces to the center console).
I...
