    Passenger power window not working

    Just a little more info..... I have a 12VDC power supply and I used it to apply power to the contacts of the connector that plugs into the switch. I can reverse the voltage and make the window go up and down so I know everything from that connector is good. Is there some tie in with the switch...

    Passenger power window not working

    THanks JL, Got the panel off a little while ago....alot easier then the old days. I've been doing some troubleshooting since then. When I "lift" the control to raise the window I get 12VDC across the connector that plugs into the motor. When I push it down to lower the window I get no voltage...

    Passenger power window not working

    Thanks JL, How difficult is it to remove the panels on these newer trucks? I haven't had to do it since I owned my '66 Chevelle! Any trick or tool to it so I don't break any of the tabs or whatever is holding it in?

    Passenger power window not working

    I have an '09 F-350 CC. A couple weeks ago the front passenger side window quit working. A couple days ago it worked for a short time then quit again. It won't work from either the drivers side or passenger side controls. All the other windows work fine. Anyone know of an issue like this or...

    mileage with tuner

    I am getting ready to put an SCT tuner and DPF/CAT delete on mine and I was told the same thing by two different tuner manufacturers. I told them I was looking for better mileage around town and they both said the same thing......."use a light foot on the highest power tune for best mileage"...

    turbo boost presures

    Good information......I was just wondering about that the other day. I was getting on the interstate and stepped on it going up the ramp, which was pretty much level. The turbo only hit about 20psi and I was wondering if that was all it was supposed to hit? Sounds like it may be normal for...

    dpf fines

    I hear you!!!! Mines mainly my daily driver and getting 10-12mpg around town is killing the wallet. The wife and I talked about it and she actually told me to go ahead and get it done!!! I have a SCT Livewire tuner and a DPF/CAT delete pipe on order (for under $900) and it's due in next...

    Plug in or not?

    Taking the advice of some of the earlier posters.... I have it on a timer now from 5am to 7am. I usually only plug it in when it is forcasted to get down in the mid to low teens.

    DPF delete

    I'm going to do a DPF delete but I don't know for sure how much I need to do? Just the DPF? DPF and Cat? Do I really need a new "down tube"? Stock pipe size or better to go with at least a 4"?

    Programmer with or without DPF delete?

    I'm thinking about getting a programmer for my 2009 6.4L. I'm mainly looking for a little less turbo lag and better mileage. I don't pull a lot. A few weeks a year I drag the 27' camper around. It's my daily driver and I'm only getting about 10 - 12 mpg. If I just do a programmer without the dpf...

    Plug in or not?

    Hey thanks for all the responses. I think I like the timer idea.....have to try that. The way my memory is I'd be hard pressed to remember plugging it in the night before.....or I'd remember at about 3 am and no way I'm getting out of a warm bed to go out and plug it in then!!! Yes they put...

    Plug in or not?

    I only live a little over a mile from work and now that winter is here it seems like I spend more time idling it to warm it up them I do driving. I'm thinking about leaving it at home and driving the wife's car back and forth. The fact that it gets twice the mileage and now gas is .40 cents...

    Short commute?

    Just bought an '09 F-350 Diesel a few months ago. Plans didn't go quite the way I thought and now I have only it to drive back and forth to work with. It's only 1.5 miles each way and I'm worried ..... is this going to cause too much wear on the engine?

    Engine block heater

    Thanks Dave, I appreciate it. Just didn't know where to look for the hookup so I didn't know what all was involved.

    Engine block heater

    I recently bought an '09 and I want to put the "optional" power cord on it for the engine block heater. Is it fairly easy or is it better left for the dealer. I'm not mechanically inept but I don't know how big of a project this would be.

    No GPS?

    Well, got it back yesterday from the dealer after they swapped the antenna and so far so good. Haven't lost the signal since. I just hope it lasts!

    No GPS?

    Well, strike one for the dealer. They looked at it the other day and as I said.... it's intermittent and of course was working when I took it in. They said they traced and checked all the connections and didn't find anything wrong. They are "guessing" it might be the antenna and are ordering...

    Slow to take off?

    Yep... it's the 3.55's. Still I think it's more a turbo issue then the gears. I had 4.56's in my '99 I just traded :doh: I guess I just believed a little too much of the salesman's hype about the twin turbo's. They told me the first one kicked in a low speed/rpm to get you going quicker and the...

    No GPS?

    Hey Mike, thanks for all the info. I agree that it could be a loose connection or bad antennae. Being an electronic tech it makes a lot of sense to me. Yes, I have a wide open view of the sky..... I live in the high desert with no mountains close and the tallest building in town is probably 4...

    Slow to take off?

    Thanks for the input guys. I guess I'll just have to get used to it. Maybe I'll go test drive another one at the dealer and see if it performs the same way.

    No GPS?

    I ASSUMED they did too but I can't figure out why I loose the reception so often. Even my little Garmin Nuvi works better than this $1,800 dollar unit!! The Wife is NOT happy with my new must-have gadget!

    Slow to take off?

    OK... this is my first diesel. When I was test driving it at the dealer I never really stepped on it from a dead stop... I was already moving before I stepped on it and felt the turbo kick in. After I bought it and brought it home I finally stepped on it at a stop sign and thought I was going to...

    No GPS?

    I just bought an '09 F-350 with the navigation in it. I'm fairly comfortable with GPS ( have several hand held units I use in Search and Rescue). When we first picked up the truck it worked fine but several times since then I get a little "NO GPS" icon in the upper left of the map screen with a...
