You will have to download the VIN as built compare utility, compare your data with a truck which has that option, and sift through the settings until you find the one that works. Be sure to share your findings here; after all, that's how the spreadsheets get made in the first place.

Yup, added the extra GPS antenna. I can set it to GPS time and that works but it goes back to 12:00 when I shut it off and go back to it.

Just wanted to update the thread on my clock issue in case any one else runs into it in the future.

Livinitup provided me with the following APIM mod that fixed the issue and did not seem to create any other issues.

Thanks all!

Default Stereo lags

I successfully got my fogs to act as DRL's..but in the process something happened to my factory sync1 (i believe) radio. When i start my truck it takes a few minutes to start working. Turn on, change channels/volume..etc.. my steering wheel controls work first but they seem to take a second to get going as well.. really odd. I didn't mess around with anything else as i was told to start small and that would be a good place to start. Anybody??

If all you changed was DRL option and nothing in your apim/acm, than I would say it’s a coincidence.

Did you have the truck running or on a battery charger? If not you may have just drained the battery enough to cause the truck to shut down the radio completely so that it can still start.

Hi all I am a new user just purchased a 2014 f150 a few months ago. I can not seem to find an active spreadsheet to see what options are available to change I was able to switch my drl to fog lamps but would also like to disable seatbelt chime. key in ignition chime and maybe even figure out how to use video in motion. I have removed the factory radio and installed a kenwood av receiver using this as an interface to keep my steering wheel controls active. http://maestro.idatalink.com/ Can anyone tell me what things I can change? or does anyone have an active spreadsheet for a 2014 f150 XLT This is the only one i could find and it does not have any info <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}-->https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...#gid=197276438

Thanks for any input anyone can give me
Ron

That link wasn't from my signature....that was probably in gthrifts who was originally keeping track but then stopped. Or maybe when you clicked on my signature link, you didn't realize that is the spreadsheet....gthrifts is linked in there to give credit where credit is due, but that link is the spreadsheet. The first page that should pop up though is the instructions. The other tabs have all the info.
