[QUOTE="zemuron99, post: 1289350, member: 26516"] Would like to see pics of your radio installs. As a fellow ham myself I'm looking for good clean install ideas. Probably going to have 3 units altogether as I also want to cover FRS/GMRS and CB. Great report. If you can get it to work, there's some instructions on going into Engineering Test Mode and updating the AFE number to bring your displayed and actual mileage more into line: I haven't been able to get it (Eng Test Mode) to work on my '17 yet but maybe you'll get better results: Another poster got Engineering Test Mode to work on his 2018 Raptor. Below are the steps he took. He also has a video in the original link. [LIST=1] [*]Start with the engine off, [I]close the door, wait 30+ seconds until all dash lights, interior lights, and exterior lights are off.[/I] [*]Press and hold OK Button on the left side of the steering wheel and don't release it yet. [*]Push start Button only (no brake pedal) to turn on Accessory Mode. [*]Once the message “Full Accessory Power Active” appears, release the OK button, then quickly press the brake pedal and turn the engine on. [*]Engineering Test Mode appears instantly. This is what does NOT happen on my '17. I just get a normal start/display. If it goes to ETM, then go to next step [*]Use the down arrow to scroll to AFE Bias (32 presses of the down arrow) and push OK to change it to the number you calculated, then push OK again to save your value. [*]Once done, turn off truck and it will update your mpg, including your Trip 1 and Trip 2. You'll see it has changed the next time you start the truck. [/LIST] The whole post w/video is here: [URL]https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/forscan-changes-tweak-your-truck.52149/page-119[/URL] To calculate your AFE number: Take your hand calculated MPG and divide it by the Trip A or B display MPG....then multiply by 1000. This new number is what you will change the AFE Bias to. The OP's number worked out to be 934 because his hand calculation was 18.3mpg and his LOM (lie-O-meter aka trip mileage display) said 19.6mpg. Example: 18.3/19.6 = .9337xxxx. Multiply by 1000 gave him 934 (rounded up) as the number to use. [/QUOTE]
