Yes, the dealer also tested the health of the OEM battery while replacing the lock cylinder. The battery did not pass the test and was replaced. I also purchased/installed an ANCEL BM300 Pro battery monitor so I can keep an eye on the charge. I also purchased a NOCO Genius1, but have not...

Here's an update on root cause: I took the truck to the dealer, showed them the video of the lock spinning 360 degrees and they replaced the lock cylinder. That did not fix the issue. Come to find out, when I purchased the truck, I was given two key fobs. Both electronic fobs work fine, but...

Great tip! This wouldn't have worked in my case as my frunk was fully closed, but it may be useful in future cases. Thank you! I feel like I should zip tie a 10 mm long handle wrench somewhere underneath the truck in case I need it.

That video was taken before getting the 12V back up, but the behavior remains the same now that the LVB is fully charged. Voltage doesn't seem to have any affect on the lock behavior.

Here you go!

The Ford Roadside Tech was unsuccessful SlimJimming the driver door. However, I read that the rear doors are easier. I tried, but failed.

All, thank you very much for your help with this. I was able to unlock the truck by: (1) Removing the wheel/tire (2) Removing the wheel well liner (3) Locating the underside of the positive jump terminal (it's not possible to access the top of this terminal as there is a red plastic cover on it...

I did read that this was required and also read that keeping the battery disconnected for 30 minutes would do this - that is what I did. Is there another way to reset the BMS manually?

Good thought. I tried three things to rule out ice: (1) Hairdyer for 10 minutes, (2) Heat gun with higher temp than hairdryer for 10 minute and then I setup a "tent" with a spaceheater that delivered 80F (measured via thermocouple) for an hour and half. No luck...

I bought a used 2024 Platinum with 10,000 miles in October and have driven it around 2,000 miles. Like the title says, how can I get into the truck if the physical lock is broken and the 12V battery is dead? Backstory: (1) January 11th: Installed brand new DieHard H3-XEV battery as I had...

In a few hours, I am going to a shop to have them install an =AT2YRWrGz46loDeVTD6_ctL8olkb9C2WoHMgEq09hQY2ZW_zCh1Az2cNUa70nJLD3JKqs6A80iz9E_9dy2hZOShGVjMSoxhrOYSFswU6X8zpJTt1Al1AzcK0qZFNy60Pl5dK_FKX4hsLPCUq3tkCp40OENO5-UhGYsOE']A.R.E.MX truck cap. My options include a dome light and two strips...

Sounds good - I will private message you to arrange shipping.

$50 with free pick up in the seacoast area of New Hampshire, or I will ship at buyers expense anywhere in the contiguous United States.

I just posted a thread in the classifieds, let me know if you are interested. $1200 with pickup in the seacoast area of New Hampshire.

$1700 with pickup in the Seacoast region of New Hampshire. Tires are brand new with only 9 miles on them (driving home from dealer). Tires have been “road force balanced”. The tires still have the “nubbies” (hairs) on the tread that contacts the road.
