We have tried unplugging the radio and plugging it back in for a few minutes, but that has not worked .. Any way to get the aux input to work?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Installing 12v Cummins?

I have a 1999 f-250 sd 4x4 that had a 5.4L auto trans and a switch operated transfer case. Im installing a 1998 12v Cummins, nv4500 5 speed, and dodge manual shift transfer case. My father and I have made engine mounts, modified trans cross member, and installed a 1/2 " dip tube into fuel tank an used 1/2" fuel line to connect to factory Cummins fuel line. We are now to the worst part now "WIRING". I still have the OEM gasser 5.4 wiring harness. I bought bushings to install ford coolant temp probe and ford oil pressured sensor. I got my harmonic balancer machined with 2 more notches for ford cam/crank sensor pickups but I'm just confused after reading a few different postings about tach. I guess just need a run down on the 12v wiring to the 5.4 pcm. I would like all factory dash gauges to work right, cruise control, and A/C to work. My 12v still has dodge alt and dodge a/c compressor. I ve bought a bunch of parts so after you post to this ill let you know if I have it or not. Things like ford clutch and brake pedal sets, ford OEM manual transfer case shifter setup, bushings for ford sensors to Cummins, and other things I've forgot about.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Installing Puddle Lights?

I am going to be installing puddle lights to light up my step bars and I am looking to find out which wire to tie into? I was going to tie into the dome light circuit (blk/blue) so they would come on with keyless entry door unlock, but my dome light won't come on. So I either have to figure that out or go to plan B and find a difference source. Adding lights down there and found another way to power these? I don't know if extended cabs ever had the option for lighted running boards, maybe there is a dedicated wire somewhere? I don't want them on all the time, only when the truck is unlocked to light the step.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 - Installing Second Alternator?

The V10 in my service truck took the long slow ride. I located and am in the middle of replacing said engine. My question is, how difficult would it be to install a second alternator in this truck, considering I have it torn down for replacement?

It a 2000 F350 with a V10. I'm looking for more power as I have mounted on the Knaphiede service body a IMT 1015 crane, 3200 lb capacity. I would like to install a power inverter to be able to run an air compressor in the field.

Am I looking for a new harness? Etc?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Tires Rubbing After Installing Leveling Kit

I had my leveling kit installed today. Bilstein 2" leveling coils, adjustable track bar, 4" rear blocks, and shocks front and rear.

I have 295/70/18 tires on stock wheels that didn't rub anywhere before. Now at full lock to the left the drivers side tire just barely rubs on the radius arm. How is that possible? I was planning on getting 35s soon when these wear out but it seems like those would rub even worse.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Luke Warm Air When HVAC Controls Turned To Hot

When my hvac controls are turned to hot, I'm getting only luke warm air. When moved over to cold it feels like the a/c is on...granted it is 21 degrees here. What I've done so far:

1. Flushed the coolant system at the local COOP TBA

2. Flushed heater core-Both heater hoses are hot to the touch as well as the heater core itself. The hoses are within 10 degrees of each other tested by an infrared temp gauge.

3. Verified the blend door actuator is moving. I can see it spin while attached to the box as well as I pulled it out and plugged it in it will move from hot to cold.

4. Smacked the #$%! out of the blend door box.

The fan still functions as it should from low to high. The truck also gets up to operating temp as usual.

Is it possible the actuator is still faulty even though it moves and not going all the way to the heat side? I considered picking up a replacement but I hate to start throwing parts at it.

Did the blend door give up? The snow is here and I need the heat for those 4am waterfowl hunting trips.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2014 - Steering Wheel Radio Controls

So I just got my 2014, upgraded from a 2007, and one change that is bugging me is the steering wheel controls for the radio. In the old truck clicking the scan up/down buttons scanned to the next radio station, in the new truck it scans through the preset radio stations. I really don't like that. Can it be changed or am I stuck with it?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2001 F350 - Installing Cab Clearance Lights

I just picked up a 2001 Ford F350 4x4 7.3 SRW last week. I've been slowly going through the truck replacing everything. One thing I've always liked on trucks is the cab clearance lights, which this one doesn't have (it's a base XLT with no options).

So I looked on Amazon and ended up ordering this....

But then I realized that the harness isn't included, and I can't find it for sale anywhere. I searched the Ford parts site but can't seem to find it.

I'm thinking about returning those lights and getting this set: [URL] .... But I'm not 100% sure that the harness that's included will fit my truck, it only says Ford.

I have a 2005 f350 lariat 6.0. My horn, cruise volume, heat and fan controls on the wheel are not working. The airbag light isn't on. I am thinking that it's the clock spring. The stereo controls were intermittent for a while so I think it's the clock spring. I just want to be sure. Anything I could check?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 F350 V10 No Cruise Control / AC Controls Are Not Powered

My 2000 F-350 SD 4X4 V-10 has no cruise control, and the A/C controls are not powered. Is it possible that both these power option circuits are run through a fuse link, and better yet, through the same fuse link? A/C has been troublesome in the past, but the cruise quit one day without warning. All fuses are good. Tried jumping the A/C pressure switch to recharge it, but no power is present.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Where To Put Jack Stands When Installing Front Lift Shackles

When installing front lift shackles, do you place jack stands under the axle, or the frame? I can't really find an answer. I assumed the axle, but i saw a thread and from what i could see it looked like it was supported at the frame and the axle was hanging free in the air. Just want to be sure before i start unbolting the stock shackles tomorrow and kill myself.
