Default Instrument Cluster Default

New Ford owner here, I'm still learning about and figuring out all the features. I like the fuel economy display, but every time I restart the truck, it defaults to the cab/ seat view. Is there a way to make it default to the my view setting?

On my truck, the seat/cab view times out after about 30-60 seconds and returns automatically to where it was before.

Did you create yourself a user profile in the settings? Then it will save your settings that will be programed to that key fob

Hey @draper12 my wife was a Draper. Maybe I missed it, but it helps if you tell us your model/year/etc.

I have a 25 Lariat also, it does the same thing, and drives me nuts. My 23 doesn't do it. I am going to sit down tomorrow or the next day and see if I can figure out a way around it. I have my default views set for my key fob, and this is not one of them.
