    7pin trailer plug no aux power

    Check for a missing relay in the big fuse black under the hood. I had to buy one as Ford does not install one even with the trailer package. You can find them on Ebay at 50% saving over dealer price.

    Rear hatch dirt and spray build up

    I think the worse is under and around the lift gate along the inside gasket for the door. it piies up and the car wash doesn't touch it. If you don't keep it cleaned off it becomes a harden ridge of dirt.

    Restoring the finish on faded plastic trim

    I used these products on my 2007 bumper cover after trying several of the "Black" products sold at auto stores. Going on two years and it still looks like original finish.You have to take the cover off to do a decent job but it is easily removed. Follow the instructions!

    Stereo upgrade questions

    I connected my after market backup camera to yt Kenwood. The Kenwood came with the connections already on the unit and with the reverse switch so it comes on with reverse. I can tap my screen and it switches to the front camera! Very nice setup.
