Power outlets(key off power on)

PAYNE5757 · May 25, 2017

Curious as to whether or not this is a setting that can be adjusted.....

All of the power outlets in my truck shot off as soon as you turn off the key and open the door. This is really annoying when sometimes Id like to leave my phone charging in the truck for a couple hours. Does anyone know a workaround or setting that can possibly change this without me having to wire into a constant hot source?

everything i have seen entails running a new wire to make them always hot or adding a new outlet

that was not a better idea Ford had there

I thought you could do it through forscan?

I think you can adjust the time out on the power outlets but not change them to constant hot

on the F-150 you can... I haven't messed with a new superduty yet

So this setting has to be changed at a dealership?

You might be able to do it through the forscan program.

It's pretty cool, and easy to figure out. You can change the trucks parameters. Like disable the double honk, enable secure police file function- truck won't shift into gear if the key fob is out of the truck, things like that.
