Arrived at USPS Regional Origin Facility
AMARILLO TX DISTRIBUTION CENTER

Let’s give it until Wednesday.
If it seems like it's stuck somewhere file a https://missingmail.usps.com -- i've had to do this several times as of late and it seems like it kicked it back into gear.

I'm amazed yours hasn't been delivered yet. I can look into a replacement if there still isn't any movement this coming week.
I just placed a USPS Missing Mail request on the item. Lets see if that shakes it loose from wherever it is hiding!

I'd hate for you to give up over a cable. You can get one on Amazon fast and fairly cheap and of course easy to return if need be.

New cable appears to have done the trick. I was able to get the comma to start up without errors on the dash and was able to clear all DTCs with forscan and my FordPass app is now clear as well. Thanks for the help.

I did snag a screen shot of the A/C DTC that was lingering if it might help you with diagnosing an issue but it might have just been due to the cable as well.

Hmm, if you are using the OBD power, unplug it from the harness box, clear the code and see if it goes away. You may not have AC with the error message.

Not using the ODB power. But I was able to clear the code once I had the new cable installed.

I just wanted to share the code with you because you mentioned wanted to look into the cause of it so I figured I’d grab a screenshot before clearing the code.

I appreciate it. As long as it is gone with the coupler installed, you are golden. That is the specific code that we've seen with all the 24+ models that have experienced the AC faults (in general).

If anyone with a 24+ lightning is having an issue with the AC AFTER they received the coupler (Temp fix or permanent fix) and are willing to work with me to figure out what is different than older models, I will provide a free coupler, or refund the cost of the adapter.

The theory at the moment is that the OBD2 port is at a different resistance than older models and the resistor isn't landing us in the right range with the comma power installed.

You would also need to be willing to test to confirm the fix is valid.
I just wanted to briefly comment on this. I had tons of issues with the AC at first with my 2024 lightning. I had try a ton of long USB C cables until I found one that worked. Eventually I got it worked out. I’m now currently using the one out of the F150 kit that comma sent once I got the new coupler. But that did not work prior to that. Another thing to note is that the couple that comes in the quick release dock will not allow my AC to work at all. I’ve always had to bypass it going directly into the comma.

For clarity, you are saying you had the issue even with the lightning coupler (with the resistor) until you replaced your cabling?

I had issues up until you sent me the beta coupler. Ever since then I’ve been fine.

Before then I had to try multiple USB C cables until I found one that made the AC work.

Now with either the Beta coupler or the final new coupler any of the longer USB C cables I have work just fine.

I kinda had a feeling it may be related to the wiring. The only thing that should have effected it was the resistance from the OBD port. The 23's have 120 ohms as a standard termination, which makes sense electrically. It wouldnt have made sense for ford to change that.

I appreciate the information. I will see if the ones still having the issue can change out their cables and see if it resolves.

Shipment is still MIA.

What's the chance you can 2-day air me a replacement? I would even be willing to pay for the upgraded shipping.

The 'missing mail' thing def takes a day or two to get going, you'll know when you track it normally and see 'Missing Mail Request Initiated" or something like that as the latest status line.

It does already. I checked on it to see if it had moved. Seems to have gotten lost at the first distribution center when all the others made it through awhile ago.
