2011 EPAS : Lift : Alignment CONCERNS
My H&R front 1.5" Lift coils arrived and before I install I have some questions/concerns.
For installing I have read to protect the EPAS the battery must be disconnected. Does the EPAS have to be unplugged as well? If so any one have a pic of where its to and is there any issues after plugging it back in? EPAS Light? Dealer reset needed?
After the install comes the Alignment...
Anything special needed to be performed to protect the EPAS?
Does the truck need to be left running? EPAS unplugged?
Thanks

You can sign up for a subscription to the service manual and others on http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdi...d=&kevin=rules If you're motivated you can pdf and download each section.
The section that covers alignment says nothing about needing to dissable the EPAS during an alignment. You really shouldn't need to worry about it for that sort of work. It's work that applies impacts such as removing tie rod ends or ball joints that may effect it.
For your LK install, just disconnect the negative battery cable and install the kit. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the reply svt,
I installed the springs with the battery disconnected no issues.
I can not sign up to that site because It's US only and I am in Canada.
Going for a wheel alignment in the morning.
If you can double check the alignment section in manual it would be appreciated .
