nphinc Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Accidently posted this in Recall Forum. Sorry for double post. I got a letter from Ford wanting to replace FWS & DeWalt Tool Link due to ongoing issues. I don't use it. I bought used & it came with TC. Ford will replace w/cheap radio & issue refund for Window Sticker of FWS/Tool Link, which is fine with me. I'll miss the built in Garmin but can hang my old TomTom on windshield. Does anybody know sticker msrp of FWS/Tool Link? Anybody else get the letter & taking advantage of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nphinc Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 I took my TC in to local dealer today to have FWS/ToolLink removed. Funny, they left the keyboard & Tool Link stuff still mounted on the walls of the truck. Installed a 6000CD that won't let me set time correctly. It keeps reverting back to 9:09, 08/11/09. I run a service business so who cares what time it is Only thing I'll miss is the built in Garmin. I'm just going to hang my old TomTom on the windshield & wait on a check from Ford... If I can install an Aux in, I won't have a need for anything fancier. I'll just put some better speakers in the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same problem. I wonder if they removed the GPS antenna mounted behind the instrument cluster? If your Tom Tom has a external antenna connection, and the GPS antenna is still in the dash, you might be able to hook them up and improve your signal to the Tom Tom.

I'll give them a call tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
