I did look behind the glove box and it's just a mess of wires. Which wires specifically need to be tapped into?

From my previous post: "From looking at the wiring schematics, it looks like the following: at C226 upshift = 10, downshift = 9, return = 11 --- at C210 upshift = 5 (grey wire), downshift = 6 (violet wire), return = 7 (yellow wire)." I know where C210 is.... just not which wires specifically each of the 3 wires from C226 need to tap into...

Just looking behind the glove box did not tell me exactly which wires need to be tapped into..

Can anyone definitely confirm this for me? Again, I am dealing with a 2015, 6-spd, floor shifter.
5,6,7 are correct for your year truck.

Had my raptor wheel on for 6 months or so, just been busy/lazy to get the harness installed but finally got it in last weekend and been enjoying the paddle shifters for a few days now. Had not used a soldering iron since high school but everything working as it should

The steering wheel itself is a huge upgrade, so much nicer than the normal lariat one. Still loving how it feels
Thanks again to everyone who made it possible, awesome upgrade and to BGG for the harness

Questions about this mod. I read hundreds of posts here. I ordered a 2019 Lariat with the heated steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, blis and lane keep assist. Does the Raptor wheel support these features? I ask this because the Lariat steering wheel has sensors in it that detect your hands on the wheel gripping it correctly and if it does not sense this it will discontinue lane keeping. Also when driving in regular drive mode will the paddles down and up shift and then return to regular drive mode after a minute of not using them?

for the paddles to work you have to put it in manual mode. it will shift down in that mode on its own as you slow down but not up until you tell it too. in drive it just removes gears from use as needed. there isn't a sensor in the wheel for lane keep as it uses the wheel position sensor to detect normal wheel movement as no normal person with their hands on the wheel could keep it perfectly steady. as for the other bits this is the one you would need. https://www.varsityfordparts.com/oem...MtNWwtdjYtZ2Fz

I think there's definitely a sensor in the steering wheel that detects the hands. And if there isn't, it's not the steering wheel position IMO, since I can have it dead straight and no issues, and when I remove my hands, with my knee holding the wheel equally steady, it almost immediately disconnects LKA, and the no hands warning pops up on the dash. Not sure if the Raptor has all of that, but if not, it'd be a deal-breaker for me. Still not sold on that wheel. The red band would look ridiculous on my Platinum, and I much prefer the solid smooth leather of my steering wheel than the boy-racer look (perforated leather parts) of the Raptor one. Not missing the paddles that much anymore, so will probably leave it well alone. Besides, manual sucks with this crappy tranny, so all I do is lock out gears, and the lever switch is perfectly fine for that. Just want to add the PRNDM lights, but haven't seen precise instructions on how to remove all that crap and which glue to use. Until I see that, then would order the light and go at it .

I just ordered Ford part number HL3Z-3600-DA Raptor 2018 heated steering wheel for radar cruise control in anticipation of my 2019 Lariat coming in sometime later this year. NOW - I need the wire kit! Is this available for the 2019 model with console shifter - I guess I will tap in to the wires by the glove box.

In D, it would limit the trans from higher gears. In M, full manual mode, same as stock.
Now, how would this work (or not) on a truck that does not have manual mode? Id still be able to select gears with the paddles if I install the paddle harness?

the transmission isn’t set up for it on non select shift transmissions so I don’t see it working much if at all.
