I wonder if we have different software versions?
lol... I'm running version 3.8

I did change the settings with forscan to allow the radio to be turned on without the acc in the "on" position. I wouldn't think that would cause mine to power on with voice command and yours not, but who knows...it might

3.8? Maybe I looked in the wrong place, but I'm on 5.8. (Radio on, manually--of course, Menu/Sync Settings/System Info.)

I should look into the forscan tool. Frankly, I've looked at the sticky thread in this forum and it looks pretty intimidating, if for no other reason than that there doesn't seem to be a table of contents telling me what I can do and where to look for that.

Is this what your talking about? (I got 3.8 from the ford website as my latest update to MFT)

The Forscan tool is really easy to use, and with the contributions of guys like Livnitup there are a lot of choices that are now on/off simple switch options.

Yes, that's just what we did.

Spent the past couple days off and on going thru the 100 pages here. Lots of good info. Thanks for taking the time to post it for all to see.
I purchased a '16 Oxford White 2.7 EB Scab XL Sport 4x4 last Saturday. Basically the same as my last truck, '07 Scab STX 4x4. Has everything I need, at least I thought till I read some of these post. Ordered N-Fab Bed Step bars, the night I got it home. Now I need some suspension mods. Momma will not be happy!

I use 303 cleaner and then 303 protectant on the tonneau as well as all the plastic parts on the exterior of the truck.
