I need a grille guard like my old 2000 had.

 

Or a raging temper like mine when it comes to idiots and my vehicles. Meeting or not, I'd of found time to get even. And by even, I mean do something to satisfy my temper. :lol:

Small chip in the front bumper, surprisingly not to bad

Yikes man that sucks i cant believe they would actually leave there car like that!?!?

 

I'd dare someone to do that to me in my truck it would do absolutely no damage at all, id put in 4wd and push in there rear bumper a lil :driving::banghead:

A girl at school last year backed her daddy's new f150 into my truck... Since it was on the back bumper I just glared at her and left. She wasn't even looking behind her. I should have yelled at her or something for being stupid I guess, but I figured it was good she bumped my truck instead of running over someone. Had a dream that night about repeatedly running my front bumper into the side of her truck yelling "how do YOU like it bi$&@!!!"

you must have a pretty good temper because i would of been pretty pissed even if it didnt do any damage.

 

you had that dream because thats what you wanted to do!

How did he get on there?

Received my Autocal from BlackBear. Since it had only been 5 business days and they are in CA and I in MD, I didn't really think it would be there when I got home from work. I was beyond happy to see it. I have done all the initial work on my laptop and made sure the Autocal's firmware is up to date. Now I need to figure out how to retrieve the stock tune and data log. Does it matter which order I do that in? Hoping to data log and send Justin an email by Sunday if not by tomorrow evening.

Posted

nope it doesnt matter. Just make sure if you data log first to clear that off before you pull the stock tunes from the truck. The memory in the autocal isnt the largest.

Posted

Cool... Thanks. I just pulled the stock tunes (I hope). Read E38 and it saved as E38_001 and Read T43 and it saved as T43_002, or at least thats what I believe it said. Should I plug the autocal back into my computer before data logging (since I pulled the stock tunes 1st) and if so will it prompt me where to put them? If not where do I save them to? Sorry, not trying to hijack this thread.

I create a folder and put them in there. Doesn't prompt you you have to move them

No room for the car seat in the cab?

Nope, next best thing. I give him a bungee cord to hold onto :lol:

Thanks... I was going into the scan and tune icon and not the efi explorer utility. I had already created the folder. Got the stock eng and trans tunes on the laptop now.

You joke but some people do that stuff- I passed an older Caravan coming back from IL today that was hopelessly overloaded and through the tinted glass I could see what had to have been a child hopping around in the back amongst all the crap in the van.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
