Interstate, I use interstate through work so I have a lifetime warranty hack lol because it literately fails in the first year anyways so always just keep warranty them out, the one i had when i got my s550 was motorcraft
This is the only detailed thread I have seen, i know its old but I would like to know how this method of disconnecting is holding up now that its been a few years and hopefully you guys still have your s550 lol I been through 5 batterys in the past 3 years always happens randomly too, I'll park...
Next latest update, I bought the last of the interior that i need, the 2 leather knee pad panels for the side of the console, found out im missing the big center ac duct for the center vents, also ordered the dark horse black cup holder trim before the center console goes in permanently, I also...
Man the rhd swap would be my dream but finding parts would be x3 times the price due to importing lol, I got more kinks to work out so only 95% succeeded lol but DO IT HAHA! Especially before they get more expensive
Yee the single screen expensive and really isn't anything special to be honest, just a bragging right
Got the old S550 switch panel from 777Drift modified to fit the S650 Switches and will get them wired up tomorrow!
Exactly my reason for going dual screens lol there is no difference really besides the physical gap, the virtual gap is still there between both models which is dumb but the single screen is also like our digital clusters meaning $$$, i got both of mine separately but together $400 vs starting...
Not perfect sadly but its the only solution i could find, maybe if I want to in the future, I could make a switch panel instead with sleek black buttons and go "race car" lol
My new headlight switch finally came in, so lots of diagrams and research and the 2024 S650 as well as every new sync 4 ford headlight switch wont work due to having a LIN connection for the connector, so I resorted to a 2019 Lincoln Navigator Headlight Switch that kinda fit and then with...
I posted on the 7g forums and fixed a couple bugs, so for the hazard was actually a simple fix, so basically going from a base model calculator to a S650 dash conversion you wouldn't have to change coding but since i went from calculator to 8" sync 3 and then to a s650 dash, the 8" sync 3 has...
Alright so stupid Alldata pissed me off lol, I got the A/C to work except.. the stupid mode to switch from center vent to windshield and floor, was stuck on center and would not change, me thinking it was a forscan error (wasn't but I did get to change it from dual to single climate and auto to...
Yea but to be honest, i honestly got use to it that i dont even know its on, and whats funny is out of everything that works so far, there is one issue i ran into and can't figure out how to surpass it, the stupid headlight switch lol literately the ONLY thing that ford changed and make it send...
Thank you for that, I'll look into it, very much appreciated and ya taught me something new
I don't plan on ever taking it to the dealer, I pulled the trans myself, I've pulled a motor on my other car i use to have and did a head gasket and timing job, so not worried about the dealer however if...
Alright so good news! I got another update, steering column harness is done, so far I can only confirm since theres no gauge cluster in the car at the moment, but turn signals and wipers work as well as the high beams, I assume this is because the canbus high and low are communicating from S550...
I got the A pillar tweets wired up since I had cut the connector for aftermarket kicker tweets, back to oe now but A pillar fits with no modifications, for a s550 retrofit, the bottom may need to be modified where is slides into the dash
I also got super lucky cause everything that i bought...
Got lots of wiring done, I'm about 75% done, still have some APIM and Audio Module Wires but last one im saving till tomorrow is the Hvac module, seems overwhelming lol was at first cause i did not know what wire to start at, i did notice that the acm harnesses had more wires then my s550 acm...
Unfortunately the reason i swapped the column was cause I had to, the dash frame from a S650 only works with a S650 dash frame, and same goes for the switch assembly and clockspring, sadly some things wont swap over without other parts, getting them to work in meaning the s650 in my s550 should...
Got the old dash out, steering column and the steering shaft, the s550 steering shaft could've fit the s650 column (same adapter and length) but I opted for the S650 to get rid of the rubber isolator so hoping the S650 feels more responsive in steering, anyways, I got more work left, I already...
Got the new dark horse door sills for a steal, $65 for both! Also got the ac trim DH panel as well from same seller midway mustang for $60 :like:
S650 door sills are a direct swap, clips line up in same spot and no modifications
Also finished up some wiring, need lots to go but coming...
