I believe it is the radar unit, the thin square device mounted behind the rear wheel behind the side bumper area. Is there another sensor to check?

Hello, My new to me 2013 PIU is giving a Blind Spot and Cross Traffic Fault Errors on startup, which has been happening since I bought it. Forscan told me it is the driver side sensor causing an error, so I tested out the wires that run to it behind the passenger tire bumper well, and it is...

Is there an option to display the digital Speedometer in the middle screen, under the Trips display I think? My first '13 PIU has a digital speedometer in the center screen as one of the default displays, but I just purchased another '13 PIU and that is not an option at all in any of the menus.

I had no luck getting access to the drain plug on a '13 as it looked impossible to actually get a tool in there. If someone could do a better writeup or video on doing that step it would be appreciated. I did a drain and added in the same amount as I added in, under the assumption it was...

My posted files are in units of Inches, scale of 1.

I just had my trim off a few days ago in a '13 - I do not recall seeing that box or the power wires in the C pillar, but I could wrong.

I now have the files posted to thingverse (Ford Explorer ('14) Console Shifter & Dial cups by mcbooya) for any one to download and print on their own. Enjoy.

I bought a '13 PIU from County Sheriff with 100k on it ( I think 6000 engine hours, 3000 idle?? so not bad for a police vehicle), now has about 140k over a few years. I have been really happy with it, and would consider it no different than buying a typical higher mileage used car. At least with...

I sent a message to you, I can send my STL files.

I am also trying to check fuel pressure on my '13 PIU - I am unable to find the Fuel pressure at the injectors as one of the options in Forscan or Torque. Any tips from anyone on how to do so? I can read Fuel Tank pressure (which is under vacuum), Fuel Pump (on, off) etc, but not an actual fuel...

Range Test Completed on the basic remote start: On a 2013 Police Utility with 4 button key fob/key, parked on the street, no obstacles in the way, vehicle facing away from me. Extra antenna would be the antenna from I think an Edge that plugs into the TPMS in the center console. With Extra...

I tried mine with the hood open - it gives out a short honk, so not what you are experiencing. Perhaps you have some codes or check engine light that would prevent a start? or parking brake on?

I don't think we noticed any substantial difference with the antenna, but didn't do a before/after test. I installed the Avital 4115L from Amazon (~$50 ), and followed the guide for which wires to use from "the12volt" (https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=136978 ), although...

Just to update the original post - I installed an Avital aftermarket remote start in my PIU (which has the fleet key) - no need for a transponder bypass, and install was easy. Still use the Lock/Unlock on the IKT key, but now remote start is on a 1 button avital remote. I will do a range test...

I had the same issue with really poor range - no electronics or anything in the console that would interfere, new batteries, etc. I tried the antenna add on that didn't seem to help much. I ended up installing an Avital aftermaket, which was easy as there is no transponder bypass needed for the...

I made my own 3D printed parts for the center console shift and dial holes on my '13. Due to the curvature of the surface it was a little difficult to get an exact fit, but they work fine. I can share my STL files that you can have and print on your own, or can post for sale in the classified...

I have been having a similar issue in my '13 Police Utility (3.7L) - will have periods where it cranks for a long time before starting, sometimes won't start, but most of the time runs fine. Problem doesn't happen consistent enough so when bringing it to a mechanic they cant figure it out...

Range - I have the basic remote start that was turned on with FORSCAN - Range is typically 50'. The further away I am the harder it is for the start signal to get read by the car - the locks will flash but getting the double tap to start only works when closer to the 50' range. I also added on...

Hello, Does anyone know if the '13 PIU requires a PATS bypass for an aftermarket remote start? I have a key with basic remote start buttons enabled, but the range is horrible so looking at upgrading with a cheap aftermarket. I know I can use extra cheap keys from ace hardware to start the car -...

I would also like to know - Can you add on an antenna to the TPMS receiver in the center console to increase the range of the basic IKT key Remote Start? has anyone done this?

I have found some good info in these threads about the 3% rule on tire diameter, but does any one know what the 18" Steel rims and PIU can handle for a width? I am looking at expanding my tire options for the 245/55/R18 steel rims and could use some opinions on best alternative sizes.
