CooL!

The autolock is in the Manual, but I don't remember seeing the Speed Sensitive Volume.

call me cheesy, but that was kinda cool. I had to run outside and try it.

Its like an "easter egg" for my truck!

LOL

My stereo has a round volume knod and the only way to hold it is in and it turns off the stereo.
The a/c compressor does not run in vent and floor. It runs in all others except off.

Thats what I thought, but when I held my **** in, the radio wouldn't turn off once the Speed Volume menu popped up. It would only turnoff if you pushed it in and released it in less than 3 seconds.

I tried the seatbelt disable on a friend's '02 F-150 Extended cab and it did not work, anyone know the process for an '02?

It worked on my 00 f150 so I don't know that it would be different.

I think it worked, it shut off the dinger but the little seatbelt icon is still lit.

Sorry I missed this.

I guess I didn't answer the first time because: I don't have the original radio, I'm not familiar with the 6 cd player, and my answer is in my sig line!

I have a Mach CD Tape Radio w/ RDS from a 1998 ?? Ranger.
