Dealers cannot even mess with this system because of legalities. If it could be altered in Forscan it will most likely need multiple settings changed because how the (safety) systems tie together, plus you'd probably loose other functions to boot in order to disable one. The bulletin even...
It is basically a dealer notice to inform customers that it's sensitive, not broken, and how to adjust, disable certain features etc... As I said " all the needed information to adjust/disable, etc... Not "all I need to know" Ford isn't going to tell us all we need to know!
I wouldn't drive it like that either because It Is Not Normal on any properly operational vacuum booster braking system I've ever seen in over 50 years! Keep us informed!
Check out the Service bulletin of April 2024 (24-7034) on this issue tells you all the needed information to adjust!/disable, etc...

That totally suks!! This is a good reason to buy a hidden spy cam to protect your investment. LEO is never around when needed scenario! Many cost less than a hundred dollars and really handy to hide some as the lens is about the size of a dime on many of them with built in SD card, wifi, apps...
Let me inject what everyone needs to understated about after market air filtration. The one thing is a tested given. It's to make money. I use them but not on a daily driver. Sure they'll have test results to prove they work because they do in most cases. If you gain a tiny bit of flow what your...
Just change as usual, oil and filter. As Ive been informed, Ford supposedly came out with the full synthetic to address turbo chargers longevity and lubrication. Semi synthetic will and does serve the purpose but full synthetic is better for lubrication under high heat .I would never run either...
Almost any decent body man at a shop can identify that damage as bird droppings or sap damage, no warranty not even with the extended policies they sell in most cases. Today's automotive paints from the factory are many times not solvent based (which last longer in the elements, provide better...
I understand and is what one would expect. Bug and tar removers are by design not suppose to damage plastics, paint etc....No etch factor. They are surfactants (soaps) which actually allow oil and water to mix. You need an etch, a surface for cling that removes the surface oils and helps...
I want lights with today's drivers! Lol I do get your thought though! Secret to plastic painting lens tint is understand plastics have oils in them. (Probably what you experienced or to smooth of surface it had nothing to grab a hold of.) That's why over time they fade and look dull as the oils...
My added touches to finish out Fords blackout the way I think it should be done, at least on mine, but I'm old school! I also added side marker yellow LED's in the vented fender pieces. In bright sun can still see blackish chrome/blue in oval.
Your the man for even bringing this up. I thought maybe I was just getting old timers stiffness! One thing is, I need or would prefer the missing grab handle, it's a bit of a stretch to reach the one on the Passenger Side! Lol, Ridicules to me to have just one and on the wrong side at that! The...
You are 100% correct. Vacuum readings can unmask simple vacuum leaks to the more serious piston ring seal or valves leaking and even leaking head gaskets to a clogged exhaust especially since the catalytic cover came about. I encourage all to learn about vacuum and engine functions, you might be...
Yes indeed. Good old days and the tricks we learned. Fun in the sun and the smell of burnt rubber! If we went racing somewhere and the atmospheric pressure was quite different a little touch up was sometimes warranted. Interesting note is, the first thing tuners do is change those perimeters...
Your good to go. Most any engine depending on atmospheric pressure where you live, should be 14-18hg. We use to tune for optimum performance and timing using a vacuum gauge. Personally (Im old gear head) keeping a record of real vacuum gauge readings from an early stage can help you keep track...
I'm old enough to remember when you only had lap belts which weren't mandatory to wear and people still ran around in the back of pickups for fun, gun racks with rifles in them were normal occurrence especially in the country and we drank out of water hoses. Yep I'm still here despite all those...
I just did what your contemplating by trading in my 2016 lariat, 3.5l in July. Tough decision and thinking long and hard on it is best they aren't selling them for pocket change. I just didn't need a full size anymore. My F150 had 5-6 recalls on it but it does seem that recalls are just the norm...
That is the typical brake booster system. If that is what you have, testing for vacuum applies. I marked in blue your vacuum supply line and in red where it can be taken apart to see if vacuum is present.The clip connection would be the easiest and it's sealed with a o-ring usually.
