2018 F150 XLT external hideaway sub issue
Hey everyone, first of all my truck is a 2018 xlt 302a supercrew , i recently installed the powerbass speakers all around. Ive been trying but for all of the sweat ive shed, cannot get the external sub to work.
I have the plug in the pillar and forscanned the aux external sub and 7 speaker setup, but cannot for the life of me get signal to the speaker. Really wanted to avoid splicing into anything to get power.
I did see a few topics that never ended in resolution aside from splicing in, so i thought id follow up to see if there was a mew method
Any help would be appreciated.
PS. i have recently taken it to the dealer for regular service and i had my advisor have his tech program the sub on their system, to which he replied that the setting was already active. Im assuming from the changes i made in forscan.
