power pedal questions?
I ahve a 2006 ford f250 supercab lariat diesel with every option besides power pedals and a sunroof. I took apart my dash to install some gauges and noticed that where the power pedal fill plate is there where wires running ti it. What I mean by this is that where the switch is supposed to be there were actually wires running to it. Does this mean that if I buy the power pedal switch that I may actually have the power pedals option but just not the actuall switch.
I will probably never use them but it would be nice to have them if I do. Would ford install the power pedals and not include the swithc. I do have all the options so mayby at the factory they just include all the usual options and jsut customize the order for the particular customer. Hopefully this is the case so that I can add power pedals to my truck for really no cost; I mean really how much could a switch be. Thanks and look forward to hearing your opionions.

I don't think you will get that lucky. The wiring is probably included in your wiring harness but you will probably have to buy the switch and the complete pedal assembly that has the power motors and slides.

The wires are there because it's easier to use the same harness for trucks with and without different options. That way the only thing they need to do is add the components. You will have to buy the entire pedal assembly which includes the actuator that moves the pedals as well as the switch. The switch can be found for under $10, there is a pedal assy. on ebay for $175 shipped right now. It's from a 2004 though so I'm not sure if there is any difference between 04 and 06 versions.
