    Horn location

    There's a gray/purple wire loop that runs down the left side of the radio. It works with the police equipment that is normally taken out before sold off. When they pull the equipment out, they cut the wires. Just connect the 2 wires together and your radio should work fine.

    Center Console for Ford Explorer Police Interceptor

    I got ready to install my XLT console in my '13 PIU and ran across a metal frame piece under the radio. It holds the front panel that has the 2 power points on it. Do I need to cut the bracket off or can it be removed an other way?

    2011-2015 Police Utility Forscan Settings

    Yesterday I tried to change the "13. Enable Aux Without Sync & Sirius" and "15. Compass Display", but both lines gave me a warning about the checksum being incorrect. Forscan asked to "continue anyway?", so I chose NO. Do I go ahead and hit yes or do I need to change the values some other way?

    I think I killed my PIU

    UPDATE: I believe I stuck the probe in pin 33 of C2280B, but I can't be positive. Hooked up FORScan and got errors in PCM, GFM, OCS, ABS, RCM, and PSCM, but unable to read DTC. The BCM and IPC don't have any errors. While I had FORScan hooked up, I was able to enable Remote Keyless entry, but...

    Push Button Starts

    The kit says it for a 13 explorer, just wondering if it will work in a PI Utility. I'm thinking I will need a hood switch either way. Since I haven't seen it on anyone's list of mods, I'm guessing it's not a common mod. Thanks Peter for the link

    Push Button Starts

    Has anyone replaced the key switch with a push button start? I was looking on ebay last night, and I found a pair of remote/keys for $40 and the push button kit, with remotes, for $50. I was just thinking for $10, I could get the upgrade for my 13 PIU. I haven't found any thing in the PUI...

    Larger tires

    Similar subject: My PIU came with a spare wheel but no tire. I know for convenience I should get the same size, Do I need to get the PIU standard or can I just get a cheaper tire, since it will probably be sitting in the car and never used?
