You can definitely lock your fob in the vehicle. Set the fob on the back seat to retrieve something, then close and lock the doors. Don’t ask how I know.

Duct tape an iPad over the 8 inch screen. Problem solved.

I thought the vents were on either side of the '21-'24 8 inch screen. Having trouble visualizing how a 12 inch screen would fit in the same center console.

Marvelous. Sync 4 is based on QNX. In spite of BB's previous missteps, at least they are committed to safety and security after acquiring QNX. Sync 3 is Windows Embedded Automotive. A colleague has a current GM product with AA/CP support. He says CP support is a POS. Keeps crashing...

You want to find the truth in anything, follow the $. There is a reason why Google pays Apple $20B (billion with a B) a year to be the default search engine. GM gets zero out of Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, but has the added burden of development and support costs. GM is switching to...

Isn't the stalk is slightly different between the manual vs automatic wipers? https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/wipers.11530/#post-195349 Also likely going to need some FORScan reprogramming to enable the feature...

Great Halloween prank

I use it all the time. You have to enable the skill using the mobile device app first, which will prompt you to authenticate your FordPass account. It also requires you to set a 4 digit PIN code for certain commands, e.g. remote unlock/start. Once enabled and authenticated, you can use Alexa...

I've gotten to the point that I can only wear tactical shorts/pants with multiple velcro pockets to carry/secure all the modern [redacted] we have to tote around (phones, keys, wallet, AirPods, multi-tool, holsters, etc.) When I go to the beach, I try to leave most of that secured in the car...

Ability to reprogram my other Ford vehicles and not have to put up with the Dealer.

Confirmed FDRS does not provide a drop down selection for ODBLink EX, but it does for the Mongoose-Plus. I bought the Mongoose-Plus and a 2 day FDRS license to program the stick on RF keypad. Took less thank 5 minutes to program with FDRS. I noticed FDRS leaves an evidence trail in the...

I've been testing every iOS 26 developer beta and I've had no issues with '25 BS Sync iV CarPlay

I'll try FORScan. I'm not paying $1600 for a Ford VCM3. The VNCI VCM3 says it is compatible with FDRS. https://www.amazon.com/Generic-Automotive-Diagnostic-Scanner-Programming/dp/B0D2VXJDRL Anyone have any suggestions?

I bought a wireless stick on keypad for my '25. In case FORScan does not support programming, is the OBDLink EX compatible with FDRS?

How do you change the battery in the wireless stick on keypad? Is there a CR3032 lithium coin battery in it?

I have read some people put it on the inside of the fuel filler door. Just make sure it does not interfere with the cap-less fuel fill seal on the door, causing EVAP codes.

I think that was for a wired keypad, which apparently can be done with FORScan. I have not read anywhere of anyone successfully programming the wireless stick on keypad using FORScan.

Wirelessly. Basically like a fob Either 315/902 MHz or 434 MHz depending on vehicle https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/Catalog/accessory_files/Wireless_Keypad_Usag_Matrix_Rev_1.pdf The receiver module is usually under the dash on the passenger side.

I have noticed a number of differences in the '25 wiring from '21-'24. I suspect the pigtail in the LHS door was deleted for '25, thus eliminating ability to install a '21-'24 b-pillar illuminated keypad. The following link lists the Ford models, years, frequencies, and keypad part numbers...
