Also, here are some discount codes copy/pasted from another thread ( https://www.f150forum.com/f2/rockaut...t-code-198624/ )

"Here is a Rockauto discount of 5% for anyone that would like to use it. It is good until April 28,2013. It states that you need to enter the code in the "How did you hear about us" line of the check out page. It can be used multiple times.

Hope someone has use for it.

1353565311074726"

"1342061010978688 is good until 4-21-13. Enjoy."

"heres another good til 4/28

This could also be wrong, but based on what I've found, comparing old with new seems to be the only way to get the correct design.

Then go to Rockauto.com to buy them...much cheaper than most everywhere else.
Excellent advice.

In general you want the 'planar' type as they light off faster. The other thing is lead length.

Default More torque fun

OK - I have not been able to find the answer to the following:

I have not pulled a CEL yet, but I am getting a few fails on the tests in the Torque Pro app that I cannot explain - does anyone have a clue? Yes, I have tried to check the internet at length, and I cannot find these explained - it would appear to be the O2 sensor, but I am not sure because the same numbers are showing up in the misfire general data too - the last test isn't identified - it just mimics the same "65,520" number so I added it to this list - Any ideas? No other cylinders are indicating misfire, there is no specifically identified "Heather Catalyst Monitor Bank 2" - and the unidentified $70 is just below the fail on the heated catalyst monitor bank one shown below in order...

"MID:$61 TID:$0a
Sensor period(calculated) - Heated Catalyst Monitor Bank 1
Max: 57,424 Min: 6,160
Test result value: 65,520
FAIL
....
MID:$70 TID:$1d
-
Max: 0ms Min: 0ms
Test result value: 48,000ms
FAIL
....
MID:$a1 TID:$0a
Sensor period(calculated) - Misfire Monitor General Data
Max: 57,424 Min: 6,160
Test result value: 65,520
FAIL
....
MID:$b1 TID:$0a
Sensor period(calculated) -
Max: 57,421 Min: 22,544
Test result value: 65,520
FAIL"

Do I just have a crapped out O2 sensor?

Thanks!

I don't have a clue, as I'm just learning the program myself. Sorry.

This morning my Torque app told me I have a pending 0171 code...but the truck still hasn't shown the CEL. Just thought that was cool.

Not sure which one you have, but the first one I ordered was junk. It was a blue one from Amazon that cost about $12. I returned it and bought the BAFX one from Amazon for $23, and so far it has worked great.

You have the BAFX one? My truck is an 01, and yours is an 06. Not sure why it's not reading anything. You may try clearing your Torque data in Android settings, but that means you'll have to set everything up again.
You do have a vehicle profile set up completely, right? Also, the extended Ford PIDs are installed?
You may also check your diagnostics connector on the truck and the device. Make sure there are no broken pins on the adapter and nothing looks out of the ordinary on the truck connector.
If you have a CEL, take it to Advance or Autozone and have them check the light, then you'll know if your truck connector is working correctly.
If all else fails, BAFX offers a 1 year warranty, so you could contact them and see about getting a replacement. It's always possible that the adapter is faulty.

My truck never throws codes besides once a couple years ago. It flashed for a misfire
