    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    Yes, I emailed these pictures to the service manager and technician this morning. They said they will get back to me this afternoon. Fingers crossed they have a better plan.

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    So after the Ford Dealership's 2nd attempt to fix my fuel gauge issue I am still left with the same problem. This time they replaced the fuel pump module as recommended by Ford Engineering. Note the mileage, distance to empty, and fuel gauge indicator in the 2 photos. This is not normal. So...

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    Thanks Peter. I found that same description of the error code. I am hoping that they will get the same code this time and just replace the second fuel pump. It's frustrating to have a brand new vehicle in the shop, not to mention it costs me a lot of $ to Uber back and forth since they wont...

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    I am following up on this issue I had with my '17 XLT. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they checked for codes and found code P1243. They pulled the tank and checked the fuel pump and sender and found no issues. Service notes say "suspect pin fit issue". Last night while driving on...

    New Ambient Light (Self Install)

    Thanks Peter. I guess I didn't really pose my question correctly. What I was trying to ask is; "How do you turn on/change the light color on the aftermarket interior light kit?" I am not installing it myself, I bought the kit (Part No: CL8Z-13E700-AA) and am having it installed at the...

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    Well, it happened to me again today. My DTE was reading over 70 miles to empty, and then while sitting parked, with the engine running, the low fuel warning came on saying I had 3 miles to empty. I drove to the nearest gas station about 3 miles away. By the time I got to the station, my fuel...

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    Thanks Peter! I do not know what the avg MPG readout was at the time as I had it on the DTE screen. Today I reset the Fuel Economy readout. After a short commute home and back to work this afternoon, I was averaging about 18 MPG (mostly highway). I definitely did not get a warning at 75...

    New Ambient Light (Self Install)

    Can anyone tell me where the "button" is installed when adding the ambient lighting after market? Do they utilize one of the extra unused buttons in the dash? I am planning to add this feature to my 2017 Explorer XLT, but I dont want some janky button/switch just hanging from the dash. Thanks!

    Only a 14-15 gallon tank?- MY17

    Last night I was driving on the freeway (flat, 70mph) and my DTE was somewhere around 60 miles to empty. Then suddenly the low fuel warning came on and said I had 3 miles to empty! WTH?! Thank goodness there was a gas station at the next exit so I stopped and filled up. I topped it off and...
