If you have a Canadian truck, then it may not be an option, as I believe DRL's are required by law in Canadia. Check to see where your truck was manufactured.

No F150s are Canadian made. If the truck was built for Canada then DRLs are mandatory and your only option to turn them off is with FORScan.

My seat release fix

Simple coat hanger, filed down to fit in the spring hole, and bent accordingly.

I haven't checked buy since daytime lights were available they used the high beams at a reduced voltage/wattage.

Daytime running lights have been lows, highs or separate running lights using incandescent bulbs like my 06 Silverado. Some newer vehicles use an LED plank or halos as daytime runners.
Its what ever the manufacture decided on that year.

Just picked up my 2019 Platinum, 701A, doors auto lock when the truck hits ~12MPH, I have looked everywhere, is there a way to disable the auto lock?

I dont feel comfortable hooking up for scan yet.

Does anyone know how to disable the auto lock? I can't believe in 2019 that Ford doesn't have a way to disable this.
