    GEN 2 California Pony Cars Carbon Fiber

    There are a lot of YouTube videos on F150 and Raptor interior trim removal. It’s not too complicated or hard, particularly with $15 in prep. Get a basic set of plastic trim removal tools off Amazon. Also have some extra plastic trim clips because you are sure to lose a few or maybe break one...

    Cobb Customer Service

    At one point on a phone call they mentioned being “short-handed”. Maybe it’s just hard times.

    Cobb Customer Service

    Just curious what other think of Cobb Customer Service. I have been trying to work with them for a bit now - getting response us like pulling teeth. They seem to want to work through their e-mail system, but they basically don’t respond. So I call them, maybe get someone and then they react to...

    Sanctum center console

    17 working days (including Thanksgiving). Ordered it Sunday, Nov 24th and got it Tuesday, December 16th. Just over 3 weeks.

    Sanctum center console

    Got mine installed today. Very good quality and the match is spot on. Phone charges with phone cover - I was surprised how it basically doesn’t matter where on the pad it sits, still charges fine. Very happy with the mod.

    Add wireless Carplay to Gen2 Raptor for $85.00

    Just a follow-up - heard back from CarLinkit with a firmware update that hopefully fixes my issue. My case: Carlinkit CPC200-U2W Plus, no wifi, no bluetooth, red screen with "Find Phone" unresponsive. I suspect an over-the-air firmware update caused the problem. They recommend downloading the...

    Add wireless Carplay to Gen2 Raptor for $85.00

    Wow, looks like a couple of years since anyone posted to this thread! I have a question for Carlink users... Carlink CPC200-U2W Plus I have had mine for 5+ years and it has always worked well. Last week it suddenly stopped - I get no wifi or BT signal at all, at least I cannot see any wifi...

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    Funny part is I didn’t even notice the Waze sound wasn’t working. I think I’m glad for that??? I simply go this route for two reasons - maps are easier to see up high on the screen and the console has a better look when it’s on the lower spilt (doesn’t seem distorted).

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    Split Screen appears to be a problem with Android 13. Apparently they changed the function from the “long click on the app button” to a “swipe gesture” as an improvement??? I use Shortcut Maker and it’s split screen option to make a shortcut for the Home Screen that splits Waze to top and...

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    Return. It’s not normal and I haven’t seen anyone on any of the forums post a similar issue. I know it’s a major hassle to uninstall these and then live without it for a couple weeks, but you will be glad.

    Replacement Antenna Base

    Thanks - I saw that one, the radio side looks fine but the antenna base looks different. Maybe that pic has a protective plug in it?!?

    Replacement Antenna Base

    I bought my 2018 Raptor used, and it had a stubby antenna. It eventually broke off leaving a metal nub. I cannot seem to unscrew it, I think it’s rusted or fused to the base over time. First, any suggestion to get the old antenna out ? I am trying to find a replacement base before I try to...

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    I got stuck in some really crap weather yesterday in the middle of KS. Very grateful I had this unit for watching the weather with the SIM data link. Kept me from driving right into a bunch of hail and high winds (maybe tornado):

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    I did sort some of the audio quality issues. I noticed iHeart sounded a lot different than Spotify. Discovered Spotify has a built in EQ and I was able to adjust out some of the treble causing “tinny-ness” that sounded like compression of the audio signal.

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    I have only had mine a month, so can’t speak to longevity but I have also read forum after forum and many people have had these for a while. This F150 forum has pretty active group with AutoTec units going back 15 months: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/autotec-14-4-t-style-screen-537523/ I...

    AutotecPro 14.4" Screen - Install and Tech Thread

    I am really loving mine as well. I can’t quite seem to get my audio dialed in. It seems to veer toward a compressed audio quality, even after tons of fiddling with the built in EQ. I even had an audio engineer friend help me out. He seemed to think using CarPlay may be doing something and...

    GEN 2 Tesla Style Android Radios - 14.5 inch Screens, Octacore, QHD and FHD and 128GB

    Finally got mine dialed in and setup how I like it. Still trying to decide if I prefer CarPlay/Sync versus CarPlay/Android. Using CarPlay via Sync is closer to the OEM setup but not as slick as going straight to the Android head unit. Also, the “console” or Sync emulator seems kind wonky next...

    Airbag dash light On

    Yes, it works (lights up) as expected now. I know later model years deleted some of the interior lights (ambient lights, console light, etc). I was curious if the 2019-2020 deleted that little light on the AUTO climate button.

    Airbag dash light On

    Ok, so I got a used FCIM off eBay, same part number JL3T-18E245-UCE but listed as one for model years 2019-2020 (I have an early model 2018). I noticed the actual circuit board of the HVAC section (lower board) had number P255 on it, but also additional marking MY18. The MY18 was not on my...

    Airbag dash light On

    When you swapped the FCIM, did you have to do anything in ForScan to flash the firmware settings? Did you have to clear any old DTCs?

    Good news - glad to hear it. I am trying to source a new board off eBay today.

    FYI - I verified my original 2018 OEM part number is JL3T-18E245-UCE

    Airbag dash light On

    let’s hope. I fixed the solder joints on my original but haven’t reinstalled it. If that doesn’t work I too will order used off eBay

    Airbag dash light On

    just curious what version of the FCIM you guys are buying off eBay to replace it. I saw a thread on another forum where they referenced JL3T-18E243-UCG As the part for the 2018 Raptor. Several eBay auctions show it as JL3T-18E245-UCE Not sure what is different about these as Ford makes...

    @nikhsub1 Curious to see if popping in a used board helps. Please keep us in the loop!
