Recalibrate 2005 F150 speedometer
Been looking at various posts on here and other Ford pages for info on re-calibrating my speedometer. All of them that I saw have two buttons to push to do the task. My truck has only 1 button. So, does that mean I cannot re-calbrate mine? Or, is there another way?

The only way I know of is with a OBD2 programmer.

For more money, you can get a programmer with custom tunes for your truck that can correct this plus optimize the way it runs.
However, I think Forscan for Windows with the extended license can do it. This would be considerably cheaper. You need a Windows laptop and a ELM327 adapter.

From what I have read 2005 to 2008 trucks are different and even the FORscan will not work to correct the speedometer error due to larger tires. Unless I hear from someone who actually had done it, I feel safer going to a speedometer shop or at least checking what their cost would be. Otherwise I will just drive like I have been knowing it is off and compensating for it.
