my truck would get the light to flash on the garage door opener (Craftsman) after I pushed the learn button, but would not open or close the garage door.
I will buy a craftsman remote tomorrow and see if that works.
You should check and see if you have any LED lightbulbs in the opener itself or in the garage. It turns out standard LED lightbulbs create interference with garage door opener remote controls (LED lightbulbs actually switch on and off at high frequency not visible to our eyes). The big box stores sell special LED lightbulbs specifically for garage door applications. I ran into this same problem and replacing the bulbs with the garage door opener bulbs completely solved the problem.

Using 2 regular LED bulbs in mine, no issues. FYI

Here is my history so far

------ 3-20-2024 Ford sent me a confirmation of the order.
------ 3-21-2024 I received my VIN and a build date of 4-29-2024. Tracker also works.
------- 4-25-2024 (Today) Switched to "In production".
pjc123,
I ordered mine about the same time as yours and was scheduled for4/29 and went into production on 4/30. Still waiting for the status to change to built.

I just don't care at this point. When it happens it happens.

I check the Ford Tracker every morning, one day it will update. Been since September and build date on 1/18. Glad the 21 I'm in now is still going strong.

The instructions are vague. I had a similar issue with my 2023 when I tried to program it. Search for the instructions on Youtube. There is a video out there that has the correct instructions that differ from the instructions in your truck's owner's manual.

Default Just did this…

The correct instructions are the ones from the door opener manufacturer, half the YouTube stuff is flat out wrong.

Default The unicorn has landed!

Picked up my 2024 Platinum F-150 Hybrid, 702A today. Was a hair away from cancelling, and ordering a '25. Also got slaughtered on the trade-in due to 4 month delaying on expected delivery, and high interest rates in Canada.
Probably not the best financial decision I've ever made, but it sure is nice to move from '19 to '24.

I talked to the dealer and we are looking at ordering another truck (exact same build as the one I built last September) and see which one comes in first. Kinda crazy.

I was able print the window sticker for my new 2024 King Ranch (ordered 12/20/23) this week and the Blend Date is shown as 5/10/2024. Does anyone know if the new tailgates are being installed yet?
