I don`t listen to FM near enough to swap it back out to the original antenna, but I can tell there is a reception difference for sure, especially when I dip into valleys.
I got the same one that someone else posted the amazon link, but honestly a little disappointed, I knew I`d lose some reception but its pretty bad and I`m in a populated city.
Problem is there is zero timeout on the 12v bed plug. Even in my previous 2019 ranger had a timeout/automatic shutoff on the 12v plug. I need to run a roof mounted magnetic strobe light with the engine off when I`m at the side of the road for short periods of time.
Its colder than a witches tit outside but I just gave it a try....hitting that button turns on the bed lights, top light incorporated in the third brake light and the side mirror lights? I don`t need a light show, just want to illuminate under the tonneau cover.
To my surprise this doesn`t supply constant power, not even I timer to shut it off after a set time. Anyway to change this. I want to plug in a magnetic led emergency light.
Even the 2 factory bed lights don`t work unless the truck is on?
The Redarc are nice and small (just a button showing, the main unit tucked away). Had one on the 2019. And its plug and play. I only tow a braked trailer a couple times a year, was the main reason I was thinking just a wireless one.
I have been looking into either the Echo mobile OR the Echo in-line brake controllers. Anybody use one? Do the trucks have a standard USCAR connection type plug? OR I might just go with a Redarc Lberty hardwired.
Anyone else have a drivers side headlight not aimed properly. It shines like at a 40 degree to the right almost like a spotlight casting about 40 feet ahead to the edge of road/lane. My dealer said "all good, aimed properly, its suppose to do that".
