Hey man i have a 2000 gt would be great to be able to pick your brain het some addvice.. Mybe a parts conection .. If interested give me a hollar man lll... Letsgetit1923@protonmail.com
In mopars after 95, you can turn the key on and off a couple of times and leave it on, it will tell you any DTCs on the digital odometer. Cool to know you can do something similar in fords. Wonder if GMs have something similar?
You can also program the seat belt chime so it doesn't come on. I forgot the steps, but it should be in the owner's manual (no tools or programmers needed). This is for anyone who wishes to drive without their seal belts on for extended periods of time *at their own risk*.
I never knew that! It's crazy how many little things you can do with these older Fords that a lot of people don't really think about. Mine is already set off so it doesn't go off and make that awful chime anymore.
Abel Catalan I forgot the steps, but I think you use the odometer button and even your window up/down switch. It's in the manual somewhere, at least for the 2001 GT.
tom even with all the rattles I still love the tired old thing lol I’d keep her forever if I’m able to. The weird sounds and smells just build character
tom I know what you mean my T5 has 245k miles on it so she screams anymore. I feel sorry for anyone that takes apart the interior of my car because all the rattles are muffled by duct tape, foam and anything and everything else that’ll fit in the little gaps of the panels
For me right now the thing that rattles the most is my license plate tucked in between the windscreen and dash. It's either I tuck it in real tight or it'll go flyin around when I take corners fast.
Great find. I remember dot matrix pinball machines having similar diagnostics. Every new car should have a mandatory build-in dealer level scan tool. They all have a display, so why not?
The Lightning has 2 buttons. Select and reset. If you hold reset it'll do something similar. The speedometer sweeps, then you can click select to move through 0-9 on the odometer on all digits.
About the check engine light, is there any way that the light could be made to stay off? I have a '03 Mustang GT 100th anniversary convertible and the check engine light goes off and on.
No problem! I'm glad this video was helpful. I need to make more videos with my newedge. I've just been making videos with the 5.0 here lately. I miss messing with my v6 lol
Yeah that Coyote is a great engine. Hope you have fun with it buddy. I was thinking of getting a 5.0 but couldn’t part ways with my 2V so ended up building it up and putting a Kenne Bell supercharger in it. It hauls ass now!!
That's awesome man I bet that's a blast to drive. I know how you feel man, I couldn't get rid of my 03. I have too many memories with that car. I love my 5.0 and all but it's just not the same. Once the 5.0 is paid off and I have the money I'm finishing project old stang lol
Lol yeah I almost started crying when I thought of trading it in so I knew I couldn’t let her go. It’s my first car and can’t get rid of your first car. It’s definitely a sleeper now. Looks bone stock from the outside but hiding a little monster under the hood lol I’m subscribing to your channel buddy. Take a look at my video. I just have 2 so far but plan on making more soon.
That's awesome man! I wish I knew more about the corvettes honestly, I'm looking to eventually find a C4 with the white exterior and red interior for my fiancee because that's her dream car lol
On that digital speedometer will it read higher than the analog? My speedometer says 150 I can Peg my analog and the car still increases speed but I don't know how fast I'm going.
Love the content.. just finding your page. Im just starting my channel and love to see what other people are doing. My channel is based around my 97gt.
Had to replace my alternator forgot all about reading the battery voltage from the dash 🤦🏻♂️. I just remembered this video 2 days after I fixed it haha
I know I'm digging thru the grave yard here but I just bought my daughter a 2000 mustang v6, the instrument cluster LIGHTS don't work and it's got a check engine light on, so THIS midden feature displays the error codes related to why the service engine soon light is on?!!
Hi, I have a 2002 Mustang V6 that needs a smog test but tester said the 'Service Engine Soon' light doesn't flash when car is on the 'On' position. I did a reset of the dashboard holding down the button and the light does light up but it won't with a normal start-up. Any help would appreciated.
Hello, I don't think mine typically will flash either. I know that when it isn't throwing a code it would just come on briefly before turning off but I may just have not paid enough attention to it. Might be worth unhooking the battery for about 30 minutes to see if anything changes.
Just an fyi, this doesn't do cel datacodes. Only specific codes. Drivetrain data codes are strictly pulled from the obd reader, no other way, I've tried before, I had a cylinder misfire code, the dash wouldn't pull it, bought a scanner and boom pulled the code instantly.
98 should have the analog gauges still without the digital odometer. If that’s how yours is set up it could just be a bad cable for the speedo and not the whole cluster. As long as the other gauges work anyways
