Wow, that is substantial usage to warm the battery. Guess one needs to include that in the effective mileage in cold weather in terms of cost. Hope to get our lightning in the garage this weekend before the Siberia cold front comes in next week. Lots of rearranging my shop to handle the length...
When I arrived home last night the display behind wheel displayed a reminder to plug in car to keep it ready for the cold. Went down to 18F in NY. The car didn’t need a charge as it was at my 90% limit. I plugged in overnight to 120v Ford charger. This morning it had a new message on Ford...
Thanks for the pictures of the install. When I heard Sunrun had assigned an outside local contractor who had never installed a HIS system before that is when I cancelled them. Amazing after all this time they still do not have their act together. At least the layout is alot more professionally...
This looks like a good solution for city dwellers.
As most of you know level 1 and 2 EV chargers are not really AC to DC chargers, they are smart outlets, the chargers are in car. Seems a variation of these could be installed on electric telephone poles with inexpensive install costs since it...
Well this is a very fixable problem. EV cars will eventually be all be the same commodity components, it will be the software features and human interface that distinguish them. Ford has a chance to do this right as I believe the underlying hardware is high quality, I hope exec management is...
The Lightning updated to 3.5.4 today but can only monitor power, not control it. Will not connect in bluetooth, only under cellular. Tried disabling wifi and cell data and it still does not connect under bluetooth to Propower although bluetooth on iPhone shows it is connected to Lightning.
I do...
Do anything special to get 3.5.4? OTA truly seems to be random event with a little witchcraft thrown in. Read that parking brake had to be on as well as other things. I did get an update after that but who knows…
I received the 3.5.3 update today butdo not see the pro power controls in Ford pass. However I do now see scales and smart hitch. CarPlay cannot be on for this to work and you can control from Ford pass or sync screen but not both at same time.
Does anyone have the scales or smart hitch appear in Ford Pass? I have in the Lightning Sync 4A but do not see anywhere in "Features and Settings" under Vehicle tab.
Once again this shows the sorry state of affairs with Sunrun. They send you a defective charger, they install it and it doesn’t work , and it’s your problem to get it replaced. They should have a spare in truck and not leave until it’s working and handle the RMA themselves. The management...
Or precognition of overheating warranty replacement on the 80A FCSP for those using in Arizona outside at 71 max output amps? Anyone brave enough to do that?
I purchased an Emporia as a second charger when I leave truck outside. IT has a few cool features like interfacing with their Emporia Vue product. This also seems very interesting as replacement for HIS. Really fantastic run company from my interactions with them...
