Reverse Stickers

My entire owner's manual and pouch were stolen. And along with that were the reverse stickers. I now have a trailer and figure if I can dummy up a sticker, I can give it a try. Can someone measure one of your stickers and let me know the length and width...I should be able to print out something that should look just like it...and then I can use clear tape to attach it. Seems like that should work if I get the dimensions right.

Personally I think in the time it takes to put stickers on your trailer and figure out how to back up turning a **** you could learn how to back up turning the steering wheel. Go to a big parking lot early in the morning and practice for 15 minutes is probably all it would take.

I have no trouble backing up any trailer...but then there is the wife. She could use all the help she can get. But thanks for the suggestion. The original owner paid for the option, figure I might put it to some use. Also, no ***** involved...those are on the F-150 I believe.

The **** is for PTBA and used on the F150 and 20+ Superduty. That function is where the truck backs the trailer up for you essentially. Previously from 17-19 it was just a guidance system.

Oh sorry I didn’t realize that. I think even less of that idea than the pro back up assist.To learn to back up you need to be watching in your mirrors not looking at Nav screen.

I hope this answers your question. 5 in. x 2 in. overall and 1.25 in. x1.0 in. for each box.

One “cheat” that might help your wife (if you don’t already do it) is for her to grasp the steering wheel with one hand at the bottom instead of the top. At the top you turn left to make trailer go right and it might be confusing for some. At the bottom, you just push the wheel in the direction she wants the trailer to go. Might make it easier for her.

I'm wondering in a 2015 how the cards are read and what is posted on the screen. I have mine brand new, if it's not a waste and going to help I'd be happy to help you out. Notice I'm not going to ask you why you need backup assistance, and notice how I'm not going to tell you how to drive, I also won't tell you what I do......................Come on guys we are all great at backing up till we hit something. Just because we're all great at it doesn't mean everyone is and someone's daughter or son might need help. I have seen some over the road drivers that couldn't back up a tricycle, butttt they are out there doing the best they can trying to feed their family, can't fault them for that.

For a 2015 all the screen had was hitch guidance. There were no stickers and the truck didn't assist.

Something to consider if the entire pouch was stolen - Usually the SecuriCode card is in there with your keyless entry code if you have a keyless entry pad. If someone has that card they have entry to your truck.
I always remove mine and keep it in another location.
