Pro Trailer Knob Removal

[-plavarenne]

Can anyone with access to diagrams or actual experience tell me how to pull out the Pro Trailer knob?

In my 2021 F150 I fabricated a thin bracket and used that space to flat mount a MagSafe iPhone charger with the wire concealed. I wish to reproduce this setup in my ‘25 Lightning.

I took several things apart and from the layering of the fasteners it looks like even the screen might have to come off to get to the release clips. Not tempting.

I haven’t resorted to brute force yet. 🫤

Anyone have experience pulling apart that section of the dash? My truck has less than 500miles I’m gonna try not to break too many things on it yet.

According to the Ford wsm, the center stack has to come out. That said, Ford's manuals aren't known for complete accuracy and there may be short cuts.

It’s the conclusion I had come to after I pulled out all the BlueCruise gear and everything I could get my hands and sockets set on…

it’s amazing the whole screen is bolted “on top” of everything else. I wonder why they don’t make these things less interdependent, it’s not like they’re saving clips or avoiding rattles… sigh.
