Trailer Assist Stickers

Hi there,

Was toying around with the trailer this weekend, trying to get TPMS and reverse camera installed, but thats another story....

Looking at the manual it talks about trailer backup assist and needing to apply some stickers to the A-Frame of my bumper pull trailer. For the life of me I can't find those stickers. It says they are in the pocket of the quick reference guide. I have a quick reference booklet, but no stickers, no pocket. Anyone have these? Where did you find them?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know the Super Duties don't have this feature. This is on the f150's only. The stickers somehow are sensed by the camera system to work with the trailer. My father in laws 150 had them but he never set it up.

Just picked up my17SD last Tuesday. I have the trailer two tech bundle. I saw the stickers you are talking about in my glove box as part of trailer guide. But you must have the TTB to have them..hope this helps...

Mine were in with my manual. I've never been able to get it to work though, I go through the setup, but when it comes to driving straight down the road it never proceeds past that step no matter how far I drive. I don't so much care for the guidance, but the trailer blind spot would be nice and I can't get that to turn on either.

I got mine to work finally after taking about 4 laps around our storage facility, or about 3 miles. make sure your cords don't go over the sticker, if any portion of the sticker is covered it won't work. I had to move my cords. And look in the thin shrink wrapped package for the stickers

They were in a different booklet than the owners manual. In that small book they are in the last page which has a small pocket. I have gotten mine to work. You must follow some strict instructions on where to put them.

They are found in a manual specifically built for the trailering package.

That is what they are for. The auto trailer backing system what ever they call it. The stickers are for setting up each individual trailer into the system.

I set it up on 2 of my trailers. Works fine. Just followed the directions provided in the book.

The Super Duty was originally supposed to have that ****. It was on their website before the launch. They even had a video of it working. No clue why they did not release it with the ****, but I wish they had.

No, the Super Duty wasn't supposed to have that ****. That **** requires electric power steering (EPAS) which the Super Duty does not have. Only the F150 does.

The stickers for the Super Duty are only there to give you directions on which way to turn the wheel to keep the trailer straight, not to actually turn the wheel for you.

The **** was quite clearly shown on the 2017 super duty pages on the Ford side before it was released. In fact after I bought mine, I had to go back to the updated site to see where it was only to find, they had pulled those videos and info.
