Onboard Scales Question

When I bring up the onboard scales I get the graph, But I have no option to use the taillights as a scale. Owners manual shows press "c" on the screen but it's not there. What am I missing?

What trim level is your truck? I believe the taillight feature is only on platinum and limited with LEDs.

Well if that's the case, that would explain it. Mine is a '23 KR CCLB 6.7 HO, thank you for your response.

I thought the LED reverse lights (which are also in the halogen tail lights) were thebones that did this.

My King Ranch has a selection on the dash screen to change to the taillight indicators, and it works.

Leardriver, I show all up to date but have nothing on the screen to use the taillights. I guess I'll go by the dealer. Thank you for your response.

This video outlines how to use that feature. I didn't notice any mention of "c".
