Title says it all. Wondering if anyone in the Front Range would want to trade me the headlights off of their Lariat. I LOVE the morimotos, but the ASS flicker is bugging me a bit, and I'm wondering if anyone is at all interested in a trade.
Maybe I'm crazy, but every turbo vehicle I've owned (Volvo XC70, Saab 9-3, S/C Toyota 4Runner, now this ranger) have all had weird electrical things that cause the engine to go into limp mode, all of the N/A vehicles I've owned (Newer 4Runner, Rav4, Tundra, Old Gen Ranger) have never had any...
Thanks for all of the replies. I'm going to keep driving it, and have the topped wiring pulled and just wire it myself to the trailer wiring, and if this comes up again I just wont clear the codes. I will also pull apart the throttle body and see what it looks like in there. Its possible the...
I've put about 5k miles on my ranger since I got it (has roughly 21k on it now) and today had my first "issue". Cruised for two hours home from Copper Mountain to Denver, stopped to run an errand on the way home (truck off for about 10 mins) and when I fired it back up, the revs peaked at like...
I've got an ARE MX (mid rise) on my SuperCab. I leveled the front 0.85" with Bilstein 5100's added heavier stock size tires, and a topper all over the same tank. I think the topper made up for the other two losses. I am still getting 21.5/22 @80, and 24/25 on the 65mph winding colorado roads. I...
I'm on P-rated Toyo AT3's - ran them on my last truck too (Tundra, much heavier) and never had any issues off road here in Colorado, or in California. If you're doing SERIOUS off roading (rock crawling, lots of 4-low crawling) it might be worth it to you, but the weight wasnt worth the loss in...
Writing one more post in here for anyone who stumbles across this in the future: I got my topper installed by a very reputable topper place in Feb 2022, didnt notice tail light out until March, but likely happened much sooner. Signal light, and brake light sill worked 100%, just the running...
Disconnected the battery for 15 minutes, plugged it back in, and we are back in business (without the topper brake light connected).
Ill have them tap the brake light from elsewhere. So glad to have not brought this into ford yet.
Sorry for the double replying as well - from some other reading, I think I'm going to have them re-run the connection to the trailer lights connector, as those are fused separately and NOT through the BCM. Sounds like a safer alternative. Hopefully they can cover their tracks well enough (and I...
Sorry if I'm sounding a bit dense - but I want to make sure I'm tracking with what you're saying about the key on-off reset. Basically, key on, and then off. Wait 5 minutes (at least) and then turn it on again? Seems like this is something that happens essentially every time I drive the truck...
Also - is this something I could (or maybe shouldn't) try to look at or reset using FORSCAN? I am not interested in the potential of causing any (more?) damage than what has been - hopefully the BCM will reset its self on my drive over.
Jeff - I really appreciate your input. I am taking the truck back into where the topper was installed today for them to do a check on it, but maybe I'll ask them to pull the wiring harness that they installed out. I will disconnect the topper at the quick connection now and see if that fixes the...
I havent checked fuses - that would be a good spot to start. I assumed both running lights would be on the same fuse, but I could be wrong. I will check and report back.
Did a bit of searching around here, and I cant find if anyone else has had this issue. I have the truck schedule in to see a mechanic in late April, but until them I'm running with a "burnt out" tail light.
Its my drivers tail light. Signal lights work, brake lights work, but the LED that...
I ended up going with the morimotos and I couldnt be happier. No more fussing around with bulbs or trying to find the ones that work, they are just solid, bright, clean cutoff easy to use.
