I understand what you are wanting to do now and I dug into the design via Ebay
Spit- Balled some ideas
Adding a shim will depend on (distance remaining) of the check arm when door is closed and also distance (clearance) on the end that extends back into the door, I do not see a easy way to...
Yes you will be fighting hose twist at that connection, disconnect the support at the top and take the flex out of the hose and then tighten the connection, I would have to check mine to view how many threads are showing with it fully secured or you can view some of the install pics or video to...
I think a good post for this thread would be to post Live Data of fuel related PIDs, when I get some time, I may just put something together.
This way there would be a (somewhat) baseline to compare with and without muffler, and will it show a big difference?
Then with a KAM reset - it would...
3 AM to me is just after lunch, most of the information I already had from various dives into the connectors and locations.
Sometimes the exact operation and inputs the manuals are vague, so some of figuring it out is hands on operational checks and fill in the (?) blanks for the unknown to...
I think this tread had some posts dumped with the recent server issue.
I am trying to remember what I posted (lost posts)
First - The Parking Assist circuit does not have a separate fuse of its own, its a shared power feed via Fuse #62
EDIT: This would be the switch power & integral light only...
No the Ranger does not have a Fuel Rail - Tap Port
So a direct connection is still possible as if the test port was incorporated but you have to use the kit adaptor that comes with the Fuel Pressure Test Gauge, this is a tapped connection between the fuel supply line and HP Pump and then use...
Covered under a 3rd party warranty will depend on if they ask the shop or if they come out for an inspection (adjuster) and note the truck has been modified from stock suspension.
Remember they are a business and they will do anything to avoid payouts, I have a strong feeling somewhere in the...
Since this was done by a independent shop and you are stating - same shifting issues then it may or may not be a bad transmission or torque convertor.
I do agree that a new or rebuilt transmission should also have a new torque convertor, but with the same symptoms still remaining then it needs a...
For the purpose of correcting something, I found that some aftermarket scan tools can perform the keypad programming to the truck - I just overlooked this option (tab) when I was connected in the past.
So it is not a - Dealer Only function and can be done with a aftermarket scan tool that has...
although yes the PCM may relearn on its own, you have altered something that the PCM may not account for as its looking for (As-Stock) parameters and may continue to adjust fuel trims as if the muffler was installed.
Basically what I (THINK) may be happening is that the O2 Sensors are seeing a...
I have not had one off, and have always questioned if any of these may be getting clogged up.
But yes they can be removed and possibly cleaned with a piece of (Safety Wire and Brake Clean) or a small bottle brush.
But to ensure you get a proper seal on both ends of the tube you will need to...
If it is leaking from here then the rain water is most likely dripping off of the rear attach stud under the headliner.
The manual just states remove and clean mating surface and reinstall, so it is missing details on sealing as there is no mention of any seals or adhesive for the install.
I...
I have used this type of test in the past on other vehicles. however used my smoke machine vs soapy water.
It truly depends on how much pressure you can actually get built up in the interior.
It does work, but it is vehicle dependent and results may vary.
The smoke test does work better - BUT...
All the Perimeter (PLUS) module does since you already have Remote Start with the Lariat trim is it adds the (shock) sensor which can be adjusted for sensitivity.
The regular standard PATs - Perimeter Anti Theft does not use the door handles as a trigger (input) it uses the door ajar switches...
I think if its not a pebble stuck in between the dust shield, then possibly a failing U-Joint that is dry and heating up the needle bearings (squeal) and or the carrier bearing itself.
Generally the carrier bearing is more of a roar and you would be feeling a vibration as well.
Yes - (KAM) Keep Alive Memory
I like to do it with a scan tool, but it is the same as disconnecting the battery for a (length of time???) as the modules will hold some residual power - normally about 15 minutes or so.
some techs suggest to (touch the disconnected battery terminals together) to...
