How do I use the paddle shifters?

This might be a dumb question, but how do I use them? In D, i try and hit the upshift or downshift and nothing. Is there anything I need to do to activate them? I tried going into M and still nothing.

M is the mode you use the paddle shifters in. What is it doing in M mode?

Yeah ive tried it in both modes and nothing. Im guessing I need to go to the dealer to see why the paddle shifters dont work.

This is assuming he has enabled them via the level 3 menu on the productivity screen. To do this, with the truck on, use the arrow keys on the left side of the steering wheel to enter the following sequence; up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, Vol +, Vol -, "Ok"

This should bring you to the level three menu that allows you to enable the paddle shifters, there will be menu options for things like "Engineering Diagnostics" and "Module Fault Code Reporting" but we're looking for "Manual Shift" click ok on that and it will allow you to cycle it on and off. Easy peasy!

Sadly I wish I could wire them to control the A/C Fan speed since I never use them to shift. I miss the fan control the wheel that my 07 F150 had.

I must say, the fan control on the 15'+ 150's sucks, it's hard to reach and not lit well, it disappears during the day. Having on the steering wheel would be great, I didn't know they had done that in the past.

I know my paddles work because once we let the saleslady go, we stumbled through the nav screen to find some food. When I took off, I put the truck in gear - missing D and going into manual.

Funny thing - the truck wouldn’t upshift. I was not expecting that result and the one thing I didn’t mess with on the test drive was manual mode (DOH).

It felt like it took minutes for me to figure this out, but in reality it was probably closer to 10-15 seconds. embarrassing.

While in D mode, my - will remove 10, 9, and so on therefore maxing out the gear displayed. The + will do the reverse.

Haven't tried M yet
