    Hello guys, the engine light came on today and I have this Foxwell scanner that I have but never used. Do I just plug this up to truck? I ask because I think I saw a video at one time talking about a bypass cable. Not sure if I need that or not.

    Transmission Oil change and other fluid changes.

    Spray Wax question?

    I’ve noticed that sometimes when I spray bottle wax on the truck, it leaves lines on there. But a few times it doesn’t. I shake whatever bottle I use between the 2 well before spraying it.

    Does anyone have the iOS 13 beta installed on their phone? I’d like to see if there were any changes to screen size with iOS 13? It shows more screen sizes for CarPlay but I fear it’s just for wider screens.
