Thank you, again! Couple months ago while raining my truck started ringing at me as if my phone was ringing, only it wasn't my phone and nothing would shut off the ring until I shut off the truck. Couple weeks go during another heavy rain, my mirrors stopped autofolding. I splooged dielectric grease in that connector by rear bumper and no more electrical gremlins....for now.
I shot dielectric grease into every connector on the underside of my 2017 within the first year of ownership. It was the connectors at the rear bumper that prompted me to do that, but I kept going all the way to the front bumper. No issues with connectors. I will say that some of the connectors are a huge PITA to disconnect.
Twisted pair wires to the connector are for noise immunity and should be left twisted when possible, probably doesn't matter 4 the short run 2 the new connector, very important 4 long wires runs, nice repair
@Bill Babbs they probably save millions during builds and then how many things fail after warranty is up Believe me they have it worked out to an advantage Going to dielectric grease mine this morning because my 85k investment is hopefully long term as I love my beast
Seen this a time or two. Usually it’s the rubber seal ring or the connectors internal seals for the individual pins. Personally, I just went ahead and used XG-12 on most of the underside connections. Cheap insurance. On 17-19 trucks, the DEF module has a lower access hatch. For those submerging your vehicles or driving in highly wet conditions I’d advise you open the hatch, carefully disconnect the connections and add a bit of XG-12 to those connections.
You da best! I'm going to order some of the XG-12 and crawl under my truck to check all these damn connectors... I'm sure I'll find some dry bois... Thanks for the video PAL!
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Aww, thanks pal, I'll have to hit you up one of these days... Been super busy with work/life... You know the deal... I want to try and find some time for new YT content on my channel, something like, "n00b 6.7 Powerstroke owner" lol!
So would it be advisable to pull under body connectors and hit them with grease. I have a 22 with 5k on the meter and if I can get ahead of problems I rather do that
Hey ARod Really nice job on that repair Have you ever tried the connectors that have the solder and shrink wrap in one If so let me know what you think of them There is no crimping needed When I first seen them I was a little skeptical but after trying them I was very surprised how well they hold. I have been using them for awhile now i actually used them today On a transmission harness plug that was broke The one that goes to the solenoid pack I was able to get a new pigtail and staggered the splices used those solder connectors And an additional section of shrink wrap on each one just for a little insurance Then wrapped it in the Loom And a few pieces of electrical tape and it looked OEM
Replace the plastic push pin junk with a real live metal fastener , these nice 100k trucks come with cheesy junk all over them I love my 6.7 but have to tailor some annoying half assed crap all the time
How can I get the codes for forscan on my 22 f350 lariat wanting to have it display coolant temp on the gauge and be able to see the particulate filter %, and to be able to add a front grill camera. Thank you
Hey ARod. I need some advice getting ready to replace my 2002 f550 7.3 powerstroke And having a hard time deciding on what engine option would be best For 2023 f550 supercab 192 WB. I don't tow very often but I am usually maxed out on gvwr. I make continuous short trips all day hauling dirt and rocks from the local pit to the job. Just a little concerned That i will have problems with emissions due to the way i will be driving. What do you thinking?
My 22 KR Tremor has been at the dealer for 15 days for a P2206. They replaced the NOx sensor but are still having an issue. Wonder if you/'re findings here are relevant.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Wish I could find a Ford mechanic half as thorough and knowledgeable here on the Gulf in Texas . So far I've been very disappointed.
With shortages these days, might not be a bad idea to keep the old pins for spares, if you can. Maybe I'm a hoarder, but I always had a junk drawer with specialty connectors, fasteners, plugs, etc., saved my own and my coworkers' bacon quite a few times when new replacement parts weren't readily available.
Why didn't you just leave the spare connector in place and tape the pigtail up under of your repair, instead leaving it open? I would rather replace with a new pin instead of the whole connector, it's as much trouble to do so it that way. I don't like cutting up the factory harness, but that's just me, I'm funny about that kind of repair. I've had bad experiences with repairs at the my local Ford dealer, so now I do all of my own repairs now..
You should use the motorcraft electrical grease not dielectric. Dielectric is made to carry high voltage and high current and can actually block the 2.5 ish volts or so traveling on the network circuits. Ask me how I know lol 😂. In other news that’s been happening to nox11 since 2017 ya think they’d have gotten that under control by now.
Thank you AROD for the effective and efficient repair on my 6.7 long boiii. Looking forward to the S&S and Banks install!
There he is!!! I knew you'd see it 🤌😎🫡
Seriously looking at Banks Derringer and iDash, possibly the pedal monster too but have FMC 3 / 36 premium care warranty. Will that void it?
No

You’re a good technician. All that attention to detail most wouldn’t do any of that.

Thanks Arod.....I have a 22...just put dielectric grease on it and plugged it back in....fingers crossed
Great repair! Your biology teacher would be very proud of your surgical skills!
Another fine repair 👍👍
I still don't know why certain plugs the factory doesn't put dielectric grease
That's my question, it would've helped in this case.

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod you f'n whizzed that thing. I didn't know you were gonna button hook me. Lol I think I'd have fun working with you. Lol
I cannot see you, come closer
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod is it weird that I hear the voice reading this?🤣
Good information
6.0 and 6.4 guys smiling when they see the "reliable 6.7" engine 🤣🤣
Any possibility to just trim back the wires and re-pin them ? Or is there special tooling needed that may not be easily available to crimp in new pins
My 22 just had this done. Same issue 2 times only 10k miles
I like that little pick tool you have to cut the electrical tape in the wire loom. What is that called? Does the hobo freight carry that?
You da best!

Hey ARod
Really nice job on that repair
Have you ever tried the connectors that have the solder and shrink wrap in one
If so let me know what you think of them
There is no crimping needed
When I first seen them I was
a little skeptical but after trying them I was very surprised how well they hold.
I have been using them for awhile now i actually
used them today
On a transmission harness plug that was broke
The one that goes to the solenoid pack
I was able to get a new pigtail
and staggered the splices used those solder connectors
And an additional section of shrink wrap on each one just for a little insurance
Then wrapped it in the Loom
And a few pieces of electrical tape and it looked OEM
Where has that snap-on seam ripper been my whole life?!!
"Better knot mention that again" was from Adam Sandlers... The Goat
Just got a 2022 king ranch and am needing some for scan work done. How do i get in touch with anyone to help with that?

Hey ARod.
I need some advice

Lets talk email me
I prefer to cut and repair the twisted wire pair first and re-twist. Then repair remaining wires, makes a "factory looking" repair.
🤣🤣🤣
Hey brother thanks as always... is there a way for owners to look at TSBs, etc.?

Replace the pushpins
My 22 KR Tremor has been at the dealer for 15 days for a P2206. They replaced the NOx sensor but are still having an issue. Wonder if you/'re findings here are relevant.
Let me take a crack at it, wanna wait
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Wish I could find a Ford mechanic half as thorough and knowledgeable here on the Gulf in Texas . So far I've been very disappointed.
I had that just happen thats the def low light
And it's at that last step of the harness repair when you realize, oh sh*t!!! I have the connector upside down!
That has absolutely no bearing on thos repair
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Maybe not, but I sure thought it was funny 😄
I better grease my connector now. ‘22 with 12k
Do it
Just dielectric or do you recommend something else?
XG-12 at your dealer. Great stuff
So, what does not having that final particulate sensor do for the longevity of the dpf? Did Ford change the regen logic?
Yes just for those VIN'ed trucks
Where can i get some of those push pins
The dealer
Replace the push pin it's not your truck
With shortages these days, might not be a bad idea to keep the old pins for spares, if you can. Maybe I'm a hoarder, but I always had a junk drawer with specialty connectors, fasteners, plugs, etc., saved my own and my coworkers' bacon quite a few times when new replacement parts weren't readily available.
Hence why I THROW zip away
Yup
Love you elderberry
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod did you get it
Noiooope
Mine did same thing 2022 only had 2500 miles on it. I put dielectric grease in connection and have had to do same with other connections.
I have no module to disconnect and grease, why, i have a 6.7 but i dont see one,😊
New push pins please
I would use new clips, you don't know the next time you will be working on it.
Why didn't you just leave the spare connector in place and tape the pigtail up under of your repair, instead leaving it open?

My truck is missing the big exhaust and wires fell out on the highway somewhere never could find it
Bummer
Plastic electrical tape? Super ghetto...
Next time all that racket begins just stop recording. There was no way anyone could understand your explanations. I kinda missed the point.
