  1. Repair Nightmare - Ford engineers taking incorrect SW approach

    I once had a connector pin retract at altitude 38k+ on a Raytheon “AWACS” computer connector only because of the extreme cold. CND it seemed forever then on close “very close magnification” I was able to push-to-lock that singular pin. Cold retracted the pin, on the ground normal temps you never...
  2. Repair Nightmare - Ford engineers taking incorrect SW approach

    Yep me too long time ago, frustrating as it seemed to “my” engineer mind it worked. The original post in this thread the “poster” needs to do exactly as u said, take off his engineer hat and accept this is simply true and quit trying to figure it out. Just
  3. Upgrade just for the bigger battery?

    Not really necessary but you will stop ALOT more often if camping or overnighting MORE THAN 150 miles from your home. That simply means you will stop at superchargers after 110 MILES! of travel for not so obvious reasons. 1. SUPERCHARGERS stop charging you at 90%. So your 185 est. range w/...
  4. Wheel / axle squeaking…any ideas

    When I had my tires rotated the lead weights used during rebalancing made similar noise, noise went away after 100 miles or so after weight was “shaved” by whatever it was rubbing against, happens every time I rotate at dealership.

  6. Looks like your F150 Lightning battery might last a long time

    Sounds like you are older like me lol but in my experiences with modern automotive sits the connections, the electronics, the ancillary stuff that breaks first. First I lost the cd player, then the power roof, then a window button ….etc….my last truck 18 years 250 k but the map guidance (out of...
  7. Would You Buy A Lightning Again?

    Yes as my 23 SR XLT will pass down to my college bound son in nine years. If college ain’t his path then great truck for tradesman/military (as I did) and my NEW 2033 lightning will drive this old man around autonomously. Hopefully my robot can mend fence, make firewood and filet my catch ….life...
  8. USB Cable Unresponsive until unplug and then Replug

    Had same issues until Music update a few months back, happens much less freq but still does occasionally. Same cord since bought the 23 XLT SO I will also look at v.4 usb C
  9. Connectivity Dead - 2024 F-150 Lightning Lariat

    I thought it was fuse 32 or 34? Same results and I do think the SW has fixed the issues
  10. 18" OEM Wheels, Pro/XLT SR, w/lift and tire, Pics PLEASE

    The only info I ever found was a “rub” noise when going to twenties. I would be interested if you get better info to pass along. XLT SR
  11. NACS adapter modifications

    Tesla Superchatger location Kissimmee Fl on the loop. Juice = electricity
  12. NACS adapter modifications

    I bought and tried the Lectron adapter at a Tesla VERFIED juice station for my Lightning and IT DID NOT WORK. Waste of 175$ if you ask me. I had a Tesla account all lined out but NO juice. POS
  13. 12 volt or bigger issue? Funky chicken no start

    Yes TCM my thinking is something is “telling” the battery to drain so “HALT” comes reboot. It worked on F4s in Nam….
  14. 12 volt or bigger issue? Funky chicken no start

    Pull the fuse. Right lower panel passenger side, #32 wait five minutes put fuse back in , if fuse NOT blown for a good reason comma should restore try to start while connected to a home charger nothin fancy hope it helps
  15. Connected Sync 4 Navigation monthly cost? [2024+]

    It sounds kind of like the old pre internet versions of MAPS when you got a cd. Push in the cd and it works forever. Just never gets updates. I like your version, bought it, have it but…when it gets old outdated etc we are taking it away. Sounds like age discrimination to me
