Anyway to hide second coolant temp gauge?

[alrashid2]

Hey guys. Still waiting for my 2026 XLT order and in the meantime was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to hide the second digital engine coolant temp gauge on the screen?

Seems silly for them to have that there when the lefthand 1/3 of the cluster is already reserved for the first engine temp gauge?

I plan on having the Tachometer and the classic style Speedo like in this screenshot I found online, but want rid of the duplicate silly temp gauge!

Left side is coolant temp, right side is engine oil temp

Oh my lord

I was deeply disappointed in Ford and now realize I totally missed the icons.

Thank you! Going to leave this post because there's no way I'm not the only one who thought this!

don't go into the offroad screen, and look at your transmission temp

not a problem. glad I could help, and make you lauch a lil.

I don't understood why Ford decided to display the engine oil temperature gauge right up front by default. But the oil pressure and transmission temperature gauges are buried in the off-road menu. I've never even had an engine oil temperature gauge on any other vehicles much less needed it to be a priority over the other gauges.

Thought the same thing, weird choice.

How is that option labelled in the MyView options? I didn't know that's what "off road" included....figured it was tilt/angle, etc. and stuff like that.

With twin turbos oil temp is important to monitor (especially when towing)

This has spurred a discussion I didn't even think about! I've never had a vehicle that had both Coolant and Oil temp gauges. Then again, never owned a truck or a turbo either...

I would have thought both Oil and Coolant temps would coincide with each other (rise at a similar rate, stay at a similar temp) but apparently not?

I think it's under the Off Road display, but called Engine Gauges.

main menu, off road, vehicle guages. get you turbo boost, engine oil pressure, and transmission temperature

no not close at all. and operate at different temperatures

Thanks for the pics. I've got to get in that menu and play around I guess, haven't been off-road so haven't touched those screens yet other than to locate where I turn on the rear locker in the center stack.

When those three gauges above are selected, do they stay on that portion of the screen, replacing whatever is selected in "MyView" choices?

Afirm. from left to right you're gunna have cool temp, rpm, speed/lane keep status, boost, oil pressure, trans temp, oil temp, fuel.
