    Intermittent, no start with flashing theft light

    I do not know if this happens to older expys but I had a same era Taurus that did this and it was the PATS wire on the steering column. I used the tilt wheel every time I got in and out of the car and it eventually broke the wires in the yellow sleeve that go to the PATS induction coil...

    Rear sensing speaker location needed

    Yes. If the sound system fails, it will default to the dash speaker. Like I said, if you put in aftermarket amps and retain the stock head unit, the amps have to send a signal to let the car know if you have speakers hooked up or not. If you don't do this it will ALWAYS come from the IPC.

    Rear sensing speaker location needed

    Every time you start the car the system resets and you have to mute it through the IPC. I have no idea what you are hearing from the bumper.

    Rear sensing speaker location needed

    I have no idea what you're talking about. You can shut off the reverse sensing alert system on a one-time basis every time you start the car. Is English not your native language?

    Rear sensing speaker location needed

    I just explained it. You can't change where the sound comes out without Forscan. If your sound stopped, then the reverse sensing system may not be working. What does it show on the backup camera display? Is that operating? You know, green, yellow, red when you get closer to things?

    Rear sensing speaker location needed

    It's sent through the rear door speakers. There is also an IPC speaker in case the door speakers don't work. It will also use the IPC speaker when you put after market amps in and they don't have the circuit for the car to recognize there are speakers connected. Lastly, you can turn on an...

    2018 Explorer horn issue

    You def don't need to pull the front end. You can get enough room by just undoing the top bolts and gently pulling it away from the car to get them out. That's what I did.

    If you have no use for them just disconnect the brow light wire from the harness and don't bother with the switch. No matter what you do the front bumper cover/grille has to come off...just FYI...

    2016 Limited Aftermarket upgrade to 13.6 tablet radio

    They have come down in price! I was thinking about this but in 2019 and they were I think 1300...and you lost OEM functionality. So I pulled things apart and spliced an amp, dsp and speakers into the OEM head unit. The only thing I would do before you button everything up is make sure it...

    Problems with resetting BMS using FORScan

    From my understanding, overcharging an AGM severely reduces its life. It is strange that no AGM matches exactly what we can buy for CCA.

    Disable LED Signature Lights

    You have to do it via disconnecting wires.

    Vehicle drives with no key at all?????

    This is what you want to do/enable. It is the only safe, factory way, to make the car not be driveable when left on. It's very easy and gives a little peace of mind that the car won't be driven off.
