  1. Installed supplemental backup lights

    Besides replacing the stock incandescent back up lights with LEDs, I wanted more illumination when backing up, so I installed these inexpensive floods. They're touted on Amazon on being fog/driving lights, but for the price I doubt they are properly aligned for fogs. I used the original screw...
  2. One Touch Power Windows

    Do they work in both directions (up & down) or just when you want the window down?
  3. Thoughts on amber or white lighting for fog lights?

    Thinking of getting the new DD fog light kit for the Maverick which is a nice clean install, looks OEM or better, and comes with one's choice of amber or white color. Hoping to get some opinions (or facts . . . even better) on which color is better for illuminating the road. Don't get much fog...
  4. Heads Up Display

    Always liked the heads up display that one sees on the newer cars and I would like to install one on my Lariat hybrid. No shortage of these on Amazon with either a simple USB connect or a much more informative "data" cable. I'm fine with the simpler USB connect, but thought I'd entertain some...
  5. 2022 Hybrid Emission Recall 23E09

    Just received a recall notice regarding my 2022 hybrid having an "improperly functioning emission-related diagnosis system". According to Ford, it's a powertrain software error, so the fix should be simple, no?
  6. Auto Headlamp Setting Problem

    I've had my Maverick for almost two years and have always kept the headlight switch in the Auto position without any issues . . . until recently, that is. Now, the auto headlamp switch turns on all the proper lights except for the passenger side tail lights. Must be a burned out bulb, right...

  8. Ford Faces Class Action Lawsuit - Hybrid Engine Fires

    Ford just went from a heroic, visionary, consumer-friendly auto manufacturer to a customer's worst nightmare. We all know about the 1st recall regarding the potential of an engine fire in the hybrid models and Ford's pathetic solution that did nothing except pat their buyers on the back and say...
  9. Super Easy Hack For Lining Up Hitch To Trailer Ball

    Killing time browsing You Tube for Maverick stuff and happened upon this great hack to help line up your Maverick's ball to the trailer hitch. Sure, the rear view cam has a center line, but without this hack there's no way to see how far away the trailer hitch is from the rear of your Maverick...
  10. Here's a Thought . . . Portable Car Play Screen.

    I wanted a better navigation option for my 2007 Ford E450 motor home other than using my iPhone's screen and happened to come across an article on how to DIY a car play screen. Fine and dandy, but little did I know that you can skip all that and just order a portable car play screen from Amazon...
  11. Very Brief Ride Comparison

    Not only have read about the ride quality of our little truck, but I've also experienced it first hand in my daily driving routines. However, it wasn't until I had the experience of driving another Ford product that I've come to appreciate the Maverick even more. Took the Maverick to my local...
  12. 360º Cam View Available for the Maverick

    While the Maverick is small enough that maneuvering is a lot less stressful than a full-size, you can't beat having full vision front, side and rear. Seems a retro for such a feature is now possible thanks to this company. I haven't pulled the trigger on purchasing, as I don't want to bite off...
  13. California Sold: For Sale - Dash Cover

    New, in the box, blue velour dash cover for your 2022 Maverick. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't fit a 2023, either. Never used, just didn't like the color. $25.00 + shipping which is about $5
  14. 💡 Converting the Maverick side badge to a signal lamp light -- DIY how-to and result video [night video added]

    Due to my envy of those vehicles that have turn signal indicators on their mirrors or body side, I took another member's basic idea and went one step further to have the badge act as a turn signal indicator. The first side took a bit of time to figure out what light would work best and how to...
  15. Confusion: 12v Battery Connections Under the Hybrid Hood

    I'm thinking of purchasing the NOCO Direct Mount On Board Battery Maintainer for my hybrid and so popped the hood to see if it would be a good fit. For those who might not be familiar with the hybrids, while the 12v battery itself is located under the rear seat, there are terminals located under...
  16. Interior Courtesy Light Issues

    Thought it curious that the overhead interior lights only come on automatically when I shut down the vehicle. When unlocking the vehicle and opening the door to enter, those lights do not come on. Seems to me they should work in both instances. Can't help but wonder if something is cockeyed.
  17. Low Budget, Easy CarPlay Hack

    I'm probably not alone in being annoyed with the phone cables randomly strewed about my console. They're constantly in the way of what I need to get to without taking my eyes off the road. A small hassle, but easily solved as demonstrated in this video. I tried it and I've significantly tidied...
  18. Connecting accessory wiring to the 12v battery in the hybrid

    Unlike the Eco Boost version of the Maverick, the hybrid's 12v battery is located under the rear seat. This makes it much more difficult if you want to connect additional 12v lighting to the front of the truck. I know there are jump start connections in the engine bay, but I'm wondering if those...
  19. Cab Brake Light Strobe Install

    Always thought having your third brake light above the cab stobe 3 times when applying the brakes was a great idea and figured I want that for the Maverick. Purchased the strobe (inexpensive and small enough to fit inside the cab light cavity) but suddenly balked a bit at cutting the wires to...
  20. Anyone have photos of sunroof/interior lighting control panel?

    I recently took off my sunlight control panel in order to install an auto dimming mirror. Mirror works perfectly, however, the interior light switch is not working properly. It seems there is a small spring on one end, chrome cap on the other piece that became dislodged around the switch...
