  1. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    Came across an unintended consequence of this project today: my wife didn't notice the "Change Oil Soon" messages that were being automatically dismissed. It was down to 2% and I'm heading out of state for a month tomorrow 😬 So something to keep in mind
  2. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    First time, I popped out the shift boot leather thing instead of the window switches. Access was about the same. The GOAT switch is four clips, pretty much gotta remove the console to get to all four. Usually when the shop manual is unhelpful, I'll search eBay for spare parts to see how it...
  3. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    Get smaller arms ;) Going in upside-down may help (as in, kinda face backwards and curl your hand underneath, elbow pointed towards the rear) There's a single-action squeeze retainer in the middle towards the front, no secondary lock involved
  4. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    I used a plastic trim removal tool along the side, it's held in by 4 clips, comes out pretty easily. Butter knife worked, too. Hopefully it's all common parts I'm relying on. Like, I have no idea which module generates that 18A message I'm using to determine if the vehicle is off. Could be the...
  5. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    I'll have to compare once pastebin comes back up, but thanks for this! If the folder names are any indication, I may have been on an even older 1.6 branch. Someday I should go through *all* my car projects and update them to match the coryjfowler library. Early on, I thought I needed two...
  6. [Success] Automatically select previous GOAT Mode (Sport, Slippery, etc) using Arduino + Canbus

    Not certain about the IDE, I had made the mistake of installing it through the Windows Store which meant it was a real pain to find where anything was stored. I also somehow ended up with three different libraries over the years, each using different formats. It looks like two of my libraries...
  7. BEWARE ICE!!

    I've had my work truck slide on ice while parked. Also had this happen once -- came to a stop for that gap, utv slid sideways and tipped.
  8. New Hood Option... Xprite?

    Quick fix I guess -- five hours later and the description was already updated to " 2021-2024 Ford Bronco 2-door and 4-door models (not compatible with Bronco Sport), " Edit: actually yeah, brand spankers -- Date First Available January 10, 2025
  9. Rattle squeaky noice coming from my rear tailgate

    Ooh mine just made the cutoff, blend date 6-1-2022. Fixed it myself in the worst possible way. Tried slipping a bicycle innertube inside the tailgate, then inflating it to keep a little pressure against the skin. We've done that for work trucks with toppers to limit buffeting on the highway...
  10. Most Impressive Mod to Your Bronco in 2024?

    That's actually good to know, thanks -- our 22 is at 23k and my wife just messaged me I think there is something wrong with the battery. I plugged it in and the lights don't even come on when I open the door anymore. Even our fleet manual mentions battery replacements are typically every 3...
  11. Most Impressive Mod to Your Bronco in 2024?

    If the vehicle battery gets too low, it'll start turning off more modules than normal to ensure it can still start back up. Typically the first sign is the warning chimes will come through the IPC rather than the stereo speakers. Once it enters Deep Sleep, the modem is turned off and you...
  12. Classic Gauge Cluster - Forscan

    Yeah looks like it's a feature for the Mustang https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/2024-mustang-forscan-list-database-spreadsheet-by-livinitup.159997/page-4 I really wish I knew how people were getting these decoded AsBuilt spreadsheets, would REALLY help me out on some of my projects...
  13. Most Impressive Mod to Your Bronco in 2024?

    Onboard charger + custom stainless bracket + RV flush mount receptacle + 3D-printed bracket. We do mostly city driving so during winter the "deep sleep" pops up constantly. Convenient way to recharge without a cord dangling from the bumper or needing to pop the hood. Probably could've gotten...
  14. remote start not working

    Has it worked before? I can't remember if the Bronco is like older Fords where you actually have to press Lock / Start / Start with a half second pause between each
  15. Enabling Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering

    I wanted to verify if Auto-Hold requires the 2.7 or if it was available on 2.3. Figured the easiet way would be to look up the Ranger, as it was a factory option. Who knew it's damn near impossible to find a PDF brochure for a US Ranger? If you want the brochure for a Samoan-market Ranger...
  16. [Done] Rain-Sensing Wipers Installed

    The rain sensor has to press against the glass relatively tight. This essentially 'pulls' the bracket away from the glass, taking the vinyl with it. Honestly I'm a bit frustrated with how my method split in two directions, neither of which is quite as straightforward as I'd like. Ideally the...
  17. Collision Assist 👍

    Haven't had any events in my Bronco but it helped in the Silverado and Flex Approaching a backed-up offramp, checking my mirror to see if the semi is coming in too hot when traffic ahead of me braked sharply, for example. I wish the Bronco's alert was more noticeable. In the Flex it's...
  18. 3-Channel Rear-View Mirror Camera Option (For Those That Want a Front Camera) - Acumen M4 and Brandmotion Mount

    I had done something similar on my work truck, but using a Ford mirror with the built-in LCD. The display is smaller and I had to jury-rig a switch to tell it when to enable, but it has the same autodimming as the factory unit. Most of the cheaper "lcd mirrors" lacked autodimming, some even...
  19. Tail lights!! Limited to 3 sets for 199, first release on the entire network, the actual effect is really good!

    I know my wife is interested in these for her 2022 OBX. Biggest concern is brightness -- I can't stand when people have aftermarket lights where "brake" is barely any brighter than "running". I saw the video of them running, hard to tell relative brightness.
  20. We Drove Every Ford Bronco Generation - Donut Media

    So, a typical Donut Media video? Without watching, I'm assuming way too much time was spent on cringe family-safe jokes with the hosts overreacting and yelling HRSPERS over and over again. They're not offroaders, they're wannabe-tuners.
