I just bought a Ford F150 Platinum Powerboost. Love the truck, except for the dump truck sound, when I back up. Glad for the information. I just ordered adapter. All the other videos I watched, never mentioned anything about this, but it does make sense. Thank you for the information sir. Stay safe.

Thank you again for a great video as we just installed our kit over this past weekend and what a difference it made. No more embarrassing sounds when backing up out of our driveway or anywhere else for that matter. Never realize how artificial our electric only sounded until we installed the kit and heard the difference. We are now a little bit more mindful of people not hearing us coming down the street and electric mode and being extra cautious and both in front of us and behind us. Been enjoying all your videos keep up the great work!

Hi Joe. For the cost, this mod is one of the easiest to install and recommend. It really is a night and day difference of how quiet this truck can be. I too am more mindful when backing up or cruising quietly down the road or in a parking lot. Thank you so much for letting me know how much you enjoy my videos. I appreciate your kind words. I have several videos in the works. Stay tuned. Thanks again and take care.

OMGsh, thank you SO SO SO much for this video! I bought my powerboost because I was in the market for a class B motorhome and couldn’t afford it. I traded in my 2017 XLT Crew a the perfect time, 2021, got 43K for my truck and ZERO percent financing! Now a Travel trailer is a more acceptable option. But, Duuuuuuuuude, that back up beep. So embarrassing! Stresses me. Like, “hey guysI I’m backing up over here! Yeah, YOU.. Way over there! I’m backing up! No, not a delivery driver, just backing up.” Ugh! And the neighbors being aware of when I leave. Not to mention every time I arrive at an RV Park or campground it’s almost always in the middle of the night. I inquired at the dealership and they told me they were not aware of a way to disable it, that it was a new law. 😮😮😮 I ordered the part the DAY I saw this video! Got the part yesterday, and installed today. With an adjustable wrench. Haha! I am so pleased! If you are a woman with ZERO mechanical experience. YOU CAN DO THIS!! Took 10 minutes, just like the video said. No more whining sound when in electric. I’m doing a happy dance and no more stress when backing. I could just hug you for this video. 🙌🏻🙌🏻💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻

I just bought a used 2022 Lightning Pro with a much, much louder backing noise than what yours has. I could easily live with that sound you have; we also have a Mach e which is very similar to your Lightning backup sound, and again no problem. When I simply disconnected the cable on the Lightning, I got an error message right away and the rear camera was deactivated. Sooo, I have ordered the device you are displaying here and for the life of me I hope it works. Thank you.

When I first heard this dump truck noise, I complained to Ford about it, and they said they could not legally turn it off. Evidently, there was a law instituted in 2019 mandating hybrids and electric cars make some kind of noise at the slower speeds so people would not walk out in front of them. The service writer said they had this conversation with other customers before, notifying them that they accept the liability should someone get hit by a vehicle with this noise defeated. My Hybrid RAV 4 makes a spaceship noise as well. I wrapped the speaker with duct tape and plastic trying to muffle the noise, but it is still pretty loud. I just bought one of these and am going to install it. It's the backup beeping that does it for me. Thanks for the video.
@mitchcox

@Globeguy1

I don't understand why these gotta be so loud. ICE isn't that loud and if that's acceptable hybrids and EVs shouldn't emit such loud noise. This is going to suck bad once hybrid and EV adoption rate increases.
@jonathanstrange8537
@jonathanstrange8537 10 месяцев назад
I love the product and the video. Ford Maverick is definitely a pain to install but a necessity. I understand the liability but if I’m backing up, I’m going to look around me. Sound does not always make others cars/pedestrians pay attention. If I’m driving at low speeds in all electric mode, I can still brake faster if someone steps out onto the road. But regardless of noise, EV, gas, or hybrid, if you walk around with AirPods in 24/7 this won’t stop anything.

When I bought my first ford edge in 2020, they said it detects other cars passing or coming but does not detect humans if they walk next to you or behind you. Can there be a way to at least lower the loud noise of it if we can’t “legally” disable it? Like for daily driving noise. Not off road

Just ordered our unit as well and it is on the way and we should have it in several days. Thank you once again for another truly excellent video.

Just one comment on tie wrapping the resistor kit to the frame rail. I have run into a couple problems at the dealership with this kit being visible to the technician doing service under my F150. In both cases they wanted to remove the device and replug the connector into the speaker thinking it was the cause for unrelated issues. The last time this happened the tech. ended up breaking the connector lead to the internal resistor in the device and I had to buy another kit from Will to replace it. Bottom line, hide and tie wrap the device so it is less visible.

It works! Go ahead and take the whole radiator support bracket off and get as much room as you can to reach the locking tab on top of the wiring clip. You have to do this by feel but It's closer to the wire side than the speaker. Press down and pull it off. 15 min. max install time. The silence afterwards is beautiful!

Does anyone know where it is in the 2024 Escape Hybrid? Looks like they moved it from the rear to the front (maybe it was too accessible before).

I have a new Ford Lightning Pro on order. Do you know how to remove the speaker? I know it's not necessary to remove it but I already know it's going to drive me nuts having it on there still.
@mitchcox
@mitchcox 2 года назад
You can’t remove it without causing some errors in the system. This is the reason for the speaker bypass. It prevents the speaker from being used while the truck still thinks it’s working as normal. For the cost, it’s worth the purchase. Thanks for watching and I hope my video helped you out in some way. Take care and enjoy your Lightning.

@mitchcox
@mitchcox 2 года назад
Did you get it connected, if not reach out the Megaohm support. My Megaohm adapter connected to the wiring with no problems. the connecter snapped into place. the hardest part for me was disconnecting the speaker, the button was on top of the connector and it was a tight space to begin with. Other than that, I had no issues. Sorry you are having troubles. I would email Megaohm.

@mitchcox
@mitchcox Год назад
I am thinking not. You are unplugging one thing to plug another. Similar to swapping headlight bulbs to LED’s. The truck doesn’t know it’s there. It thinks the speaker is still there. This can easily be unplugged and plugged back into the factory speaker. I don’t sell these or get commission so no worries if you don’t buy it. I have had mine installed for a while and had no issues when I took it into ford for recalls or oil changes. Hope this helps.
@Green__one
@Green__one 6 месяцев назад
Magnuson Moss warranty act states that it is illegal to void the warranty due to aftermarket parts unless you can prove that the aftermarket part directly caused the issue in question. I can't come up with any way that this could even theoretically cause any issues with any system that you care about on the truck, therefore I would say from a legal warranty standpoint you are perfectly safe. That said, if you are in a collision at low speed with a pedestrian with this removed, it is possible that some lawyer will find you at fault due to the lack of the pedestrian warning sound. I still plan to install one though.

Not that I am aware of. It’s simple to undo. You just unplug the device and plug the speaker back in.

I have also taken my truck in for the insulation recall and no one noticed or said anything about this device. No issues at all. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe.

You can do it that way but if you ever take it to the dealer and they hook the computer up to it. They will see that it is disconnected. And see you modified the settings. At that point they could refuse to do any warranty work. With the mod. There is no alerts or error messages that pop up. No settings to modify.
@Green__one
@Green__one 6 месяцев назад
​@@mitchcoxthey could refuse to do the warranty work, but they would legally be in the wrong. The law states that the only way you can void a warranty, is if you can prove in court that the modification the customer made was the direct cause of the problem in question. So unless you bring the truck in and ask them to fix that speaker under warranty, the fact that you've disabled that speaker should not come up.
