  1. Automatic windows, they go down and back up automatically, then immediately go back down halfway?

    It used to happen to me a lot... turns out that my fidgeting with the windows buttons was triggering programming mode... I have success retrained myself not to frequently hit the window up switches anymore :)
  2. Temperature 5F, 3 horn sounds, no remote start

    Was a door possibly ajar? I think the remote start will fail if it cannot lock the truck.
  3. "Stop safely now", 12V battery loosing charge, and rodent damage

    My lightning was the victim of rodent damage twice. Second time was the day after I got it back from the first repair so I can say that it happens fast. That picture doesn't look like rodents to me either and I dont see how they could charge a thousand dollars to fix it. Comprehensive...
  4. Windshield fogging up in cold weather

    Wow! Havent seen that stuff in 40 years but I recall that worked great on my ski goggles back then.
  5. Connected to Charger Error & Won't Shift Out of Park. Lesson learned: carry a 10mm wrench (to disconnect battery)

    Sadly today's world is "Reboot first and hope it fixes it since nobody knows how to do anything else"
  6. Issue with driver display "my view" resetting frequently.

    Mine decides its should be in "Calm View" sometimes on startup. I assume its trying to tell me something but its backfiring... Think I might try one of these in the cab:
  7. Instrument cluster goes back to calm screen

    Up arrow on the right hand steering wheel controls works for me when it randomly switches to calm mode.
  8. Phone getting too hot from AA

    I think the default setup for android auto tries to connect via a custom wifi network without using Premium Connectivity. Sorry that I don't recall all of the details as I dealt with this a long time ago. The easy solution is to simply plug in.
  9. Phone getting too hot from AA

    I have had this happen in the past and tracked it down to phone's WiFi usage was using way too much battery (generating heat). Sorry I don't know what made the problem go away; I started by turning off the WiFi connection to truck and used the wired connection for a while. I have not had...
  10. Is this water drain area under the windshield supposed to look like it was cut with children's scissors?

    It didn't necessarily happen at home. I recently had several thousand dollars of wiring damage from rodents in one day (probably a squirrel) while parked at work...
  11. Rodent Damage

    So I pick the truck up Monday afternoon after repairs are completed, drive to work Tuesday morning with no issues. Note that I also sprayed some rodent repellent in the wheel wells before heading to work. Start it after work and get "service soon" warning again and notice front turn signals...
  12. Rodent Damage

    I took the truck in to my dealer on Thursday to figure out why the "frunk is ajar" warning is on and they found the cause to be rodent damage. Wires were chewed in 3 different spots :( There have been no signs of mice in my garage so I am assuming it was caused by squirrels where I work. Note...
  13. Rust on axel/suspension already?

    It called "patina" :) Noticed it right away too. It is cosmetic and doesn't impact performance or longevity but I also wish it wasn't there.
  14. Heated Mirrors defaulting to on

    Wild, no such goodie on the XLT:
  15. Heated Mirrors defaulting to on

    How can you tell they are on? I never found any indicator and used a thermometer gun to prove that I even had them on my XLT.
  16. Truck rolled/slid backwards while parked on hill

    Really... more weight + same contact area (resistance) = more likely to move Simple physics experiment: take an empty container, put it on a steep slope, slowly add weight and see what happens. My money is on the additional ton of weight.
  17. Lightning stopped communicating with Fordpass App

    Green nut works for me. The device the yellow is plugged into is part of the BMS and lets the computer know about various things including current draw and battery voltage. I do not believe it is ever recommend to disconnect the positive cable (red) before disconnecting the negative (black)...
  18. Modem stopped working.....then worked with a weird possible fix

    Body Control Module Fuse Box 8/9 5 amp micro 3 fuse. Tried twice leaving it out over 30 seconds the second time. Guessing I have a different software glitch. All was well before applying 4.1.1 on the 14th but it still worked till yesterday.
  19. Modem stopped working.....then worked with a weird possible fix

    No luck for me. Last data update was yesterday morning. Will probably try 12v battery disconnect tomorrow. I hate modern software. I'm a data developer and quality software no longer exists. Cheapest labor gets poorest product. There just isn't enough good talent out there and the market...
