Might be mentioned already but for the exhaust brake if you want to have it default “on” when you start truck
-key on/engine off
-wait for cluster to finish start-up (may not be necessary)
-push exhaust brake button once
-press ok on steering wheel (may not be necessary)
-key off
Works on my 2017 XLT with key start! Excellent find! Thanks! Edit:Looks like I spoke too soon, works for 1 or 2 starts after & then defaults back to engine brake off at start.
If you're on a cell phone call connected with bluetooth and you get to your destination, and turn off the engine, the accessory mode will stay on as long as you're on the call.
That means you don't have to worry about a bluetooth handoff during your call. As soon as you hangup, the accessory mode will turn off.
I can turn mine on and off through the driver screen/cluster. I believe it is the tab all the way to the right, then go to advanced settings. It should be there at the top of the list.
You are exactly right, works great, love this feature.

Parking brake 'ON'. Wait for seat belt light to go out (30 seconds to a minute), attach and release seat belt three times (within ten seconds), after light comes back on, attach and release seat belt one more time. Light should flash.
If you tow a travel trailer and your tailgate hits your tongue jack when you lower it, this might help - disconnect the right side tailgate cable and loop it around the tailgate latch......... Edit - reattach cable to close tailgate - LOL
