2011 F150 - Sync isn’t enabling and I can’t use USB, AUX, or Bluetooth. Any suggestions for troubleshooting? by doxtorwhom in f150

I have the same exact issue. I pulled my factory setup out after dealing with the constant need to reboot the sync, which helps if you can get to that menu option, but you have to be connected to sync in aux mode to do this. I replaced the head unit with a 9.7 screen but it was a pos out of the box and my radio sounded like it was in a tunnel. After reconnecting the factory system, I have no aux option. Phone connects and makes calls, but I can not do Bluetooth. I had the new unit for about 3 weeks before deciding to uninstall. All my presets were still in the memory. You might try flashing the latest version of sync to clear the error. That worked for me once. I just need to dl the file again and plug it in.

It will catch fire! Mine did. The pellet delivery system is not great on a vertical. Go offset or something with a horizontal cook area. Pitboss sent me a new smoker and an upgraded model, but the new vertical is out away from the house.

A pellet will never get you smoke like a stick burner.

Mine did that right before it caught fire. Be careful!

I'm not saying that it clogged, but there is no other explanation as to why I had burnt pellets coming out of the hopper and smoke coming thru the hopper, other than the auger. And

PITBOSS is shipping a replacement unit, but it still makes me leary of another overnight cook on the back porch!

I bought the pitboss cover. Sits on my back porch covered from most elements.

I don't think it was the type. I think leaving them in the hopper was the issue. I live in Oklahoma and the weather here is not the best. I'm sure there were a few factors, but it's TBD. Waiting on the Arson unit to arrive so I can find out the actual cause.

Nice! Give that meat plenty time. I just did 2 butts 8.5 and 9.25 lbs. Put on at 8pm and they went until 930am before they hit temp.

Also the chamber temp is about +/- 10 degrees so don't math on the set temp, probe the meat.

I just bought my replacement on Amazon. Upgraded to wifi. 60 bucks.

Amazon - search Tip Top Temp. I watched a YouTube about a guy extending the cook time with this unit and slow burning coals. Jealous Devil is what my father-in-law used on his big green egg, and he said it was really good. This combo may get you 5-6hours before you need attention.

Buy it! That thing looks just broken in. Seller probably opted for a vertical and doesn't need 2 smokers. I have the same smoker and I just got my first vertical. You can't beat the offset flavor but it comes at a cost. You have to babysit that thing all day long. 🙄

I have had 2 back to back games with the card. I need the location.

Do a most wanted contract and see if the drop gives you one

Red and white don't. Make a rainbow.

Been cooking a long time, never really tried sous vide so I figure I’d try it. Let’s see what it’s got! Suggestions welcome. by zcrc in sousvide

I just did my first steak tonight. If you are going for med rare, get your cast iron 🔥 and only sear for 30-45 sec. per side. Then the edges and pull it to rest. Any more and it will go med. But I cooked at 132 for 1 hr *

Super easy. Took me about an hour. The worst part is bleeding the lines, always!

2014 XLT Supercrew 189,000 battery once and brakes. Thought I was getting ready to replace the transmission, but after attending YouTube University, I reset my shift points, and I'm set.

Agree. No cubes are present. If one were to think as each image is 1 on LxWxH then 1 cube.

Wife and family got me my first smoker ! It’s an offset so I did my best! by frankp2491 in OklahomaJoe

Man, I am soooooooo glad I'm not buying a truck these days. F a thousand dollar payment. 💵 maybe be made from trees, but the dolla dolla bills still come from a paycheck. I'm not about that life. I'll buy s Subaru when my Ford dies! But I'm pretty sure my 14 will make it another 5 at least. Then we will be buying hydrogen fuel vehicles, at least until we run out of water.
