All my previous F150s and other Ford/Lincoln vehicles have had constant 12 volt power at the ports. Seems like my 2016 has lost this. Anyone solved this issue? I like to leave my phone charging in the truck sometimes.

 

This is controlled through the truck's computers. You can change it via software/forscan

I've been reading that thread and trying to tell myself I don't need to spend that money... Now I am.

Thanks

 

There are now two ways of doing this, first is my jumper mod in the engine fuse box that allows for 24/7 power to just the outlets you select. Second is the Forscan mod where you can set the length of time or have them on 24/7.. But this applies to all of them.. I'm now set up with one 24/7 with jumper and the other three timed at 3 hours.

 

What is the cost? Just the adapter?
