I started this tread in 2019. I started this thread in 2019. This post is a great explanation of the problem. The fix is described in the attachment. Have they fixed this in the latest version of the truck

Do you have any tips on removing the top of the console. Which end did you pop first.

I don't want to hijack this very important thread. But I would also like to ask those who have installed and tested an aftermarket controllers to include a wiring diagram of how they did it

This is the page from the Australian Ranger Accessories Catalog showing their Trailer Brake Controller

Great post. At least someone one from Ford acknowledged that there may be no good option for installing an after-market controller. I also filed a complaint. If anyone is as concerned about this issue as I am, I hope you will also file a complaint. Apparently it's going to take a lot more than...

Amen brother. I'm trying to haul my 20 x 8.5 enclosed car hauler

I tried to get the information from Ford in Dearborn and my local dealer a couple dealers while I was wandering the country. The only people who will talk about this seems to be the people at Redarc. They say that Ford Motor Company Australia is developing a controller using their technology...

I appreciate the information. However I would like to have it come from Ford Motor Company. Things that concern me in most of those posts are comments like: : "The wire colors comply with the standard color codes. However, some folks have found a Green/Black wire instead of the Blue wire. * *...

Why would you use any type of cruise control in heavy traffic. What type of trailer do you tow and what controller have you installed on your Ranger.

Why would you use a knee cruise control in traffic?

I agree that the warning is very poorly worded. It also does not doesn't appear anywhere in the towing brochures. I traded my 150 because I wanted to use adaptive speed control when I'm on the highway. When I ordered my truck I was told there would be a dealer installed trailer brake controller...

Have you ever towed a trailer on I-65 from Indianapolis to Chicago or on I-95 from Wilmington the Virginia border. I am 77 and want to use my adaptive speed control What kind of trailer do you tow.

Thanks for the post. I do have a copy of those instructions. This just adds to my confusion. So far I have not gotten a straight answer from the Ford Motor Company. You call customer service they tell you to see the dealer. The dealer says there is no trailer brake controller for the 2019...

Have you installed a brake controller? If so what kind did you use and where did you get the brake signal from?

Redarc appears to be engineering the Ford OEM trailer brake controller (whenever and if ever it is leased). I spoke with the Redarc technical help group last night. They said Ford is engineering a slightly different version of their controller. It apparently has something to do with electronic...

Page 182 of the 2019 RANGER Owner’s Manual (3rd Printing, April 2019) the following warning appears: USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WARNING: Do not use the system when towing a trailer that has aftermarket electronic trailer brake controls. Failure to follow this instruction could result in...
