    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    I took the puddle wire from BCM and jumped it to the wire for the courtesy lights. Puddle lights work now. BCM is still showing the same 3 faults. 2 of the faults are for the puddle lights. Seeing that they are there with the wire cut coming out of bcm, do you think the BCM would be bad...

    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    I got my morimoto puddle lights yesterday. I pulled the mirrors apart and took out my current amazon special puddle light. Ran the Body Control Module self test and still have the same faults with no puddle lights installed. I installed the new puddle lights, no change. Still have the same...

    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    Pain in the **** for sure. I'll eventually get it figured out. I post on here to hopefully help someone avoid the tribulations that I go through.

    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    I popped the boot off to look at the wires in the door and that "looked" okay. I'll dig into that deeper when the new bulbs get here. I went ahead and ordered the morimoto puddle lights and also ordered the F150LED interior lights for the interior. Map lights, rear dome light and vanity...

    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    I was up until about 2AM reading on this last night. It looks like U3000:49 pops when a frequency threshold is met from a repeated fault. I did not know this. In my case, it looks like the puddle light ground fault is what got me. I can run the BCM self test and it shows 3 faults. 2 puddle...

    Puddle/Cargo Lights

    I know this has been asked a few time. I've searched and read through similar threads, but need clarity around an issue I have. I have a problem with my puddle light circuit, and that is also keeping my cargo light to not work. I have code B12C2 stored in the BCM. Puddle Lamp - Circuit Short...

    Transmission jumping out of gear

    Nah nothing really to speak of. I’m not the best one to ask. I had to send my transmission back to MS Racing 3 times when it was right. Look into Circle D.

    Body Mounts

    Update: Have 6 of the 8 body mounts swapped out. This has gotten stupid expensive. $1600 into it so far and the shop charges $75/hr. I used 2 body mounts from O'Reilly. That was around $120 in parts. The 6 from FORD though, 4 were in stock. I went ahead and paid for all 6. That was $880...

    Transmission jumping out of gear

    Call your local ford dealer with your vin #. Tell them that you need the harness to run from pcm to transmission. I had mine in hand the next day. Seemed like it was around $240???

    Transmission issues

    for sure check what @MTF said on the harness. Happened to me. I’ve read to where one guy went and got a 6R80 from a junkyard while his tranny was being built. Worked just fine. Just got to update the strategy in Forscan. I sent my transmission to MS Racing for rebuild. If I had to do it all...

    Rear suspension noise

    I can feel the noise. I had the truck on the lift last week and looked at the brake cable. That's not it. It's much more pronounced if that makes sense. I'm in the process of changing body mounts now to rule that out. This has gotten stupid. I'm going to be into it for $1200 just for the...

    Body Mounts

    Has anyone replaced their body mounts on their Gen 1? I know there's options to do the solid mounts, but I did not want to go that route yet. So trying to get a set of body mounts has proven to be quite challenging. You can look at O'reilly, Autozone, Rock Auto, Etc. I can only find the...

    Rear suspension noise

    I'm at 95K miles. I'll do some zip tying the E-Brake cable and make sure that's not it. Worth a shot.

    Rear suspension noise

    So I got pretty frustrated with this Friday evening. The noise was considerably harder to hear. On Friday, temps got up to around 70 degrees. Warmest it's been, but we had a warm few days end of last week. Rubber softens up when it is warm, so this makes me think it's some kind of rubber...
