  1. Lectron Vortex Plug Available on Amazon Vine

    I have the Lectron 40 amp EVSE and two weather covers. The j1772 sticks in the socket when hot and the covers had magnets in them(useless on aluminum). I had to remove the magnets because they interfered with my ChargePoint j1772 that has a magnetic switch. I would not buy a Lectron product again.
  2. Are our doors “manual”?

    Yes, I had global windows down from the PAAK.
  3. Are our doors “manual”?

    Yes, my walk away switch is gone also, what I really miss is the global windows control from the PAAK. I lost that early on though. The wonder's of OTA updates, like I wonder who decides what is added or taken away without our input.
  4. Are our doors “manual”?

    The locking modes are selectable on the sync screen. I have mine set to only unlock the driver's door when entering and to lock with the walk away locking mode. Mine is a Lariat so those options may not be available on all models.
  5. Things I forgot to bring on towing road trip

    Thieves don't care, a couple of twists on the safety chains and who needs a hitch! Gone in seconds. I like the idea of chaining the wheels but also wrap those safety chains around the trailer tongue and lock them. The more you do, the longer it will take to steal. Here's a good site for trailer...
  6. First Look: Ford F-150 Lightning Supertruck EV Demonstrator

    I can hear it now,"that's not a real lightning!". And is that guy wearing the helmet from the Space Balls movie?
  7. Trailer disconnect but range wrong

    I haven’t towed for awhile, but it has to do with unplugging while the vehicle is on or off. So try both unplug while it’s on or unplug while it’s off .
  8. 🔊 Pedestrian sound alert speaker suppressor 🔫

    Florescent green is a good idea, it'll make it easy for the state police to find in an accident investigation!

    I also have a Mach E, it's going in next week for recall work. 1.The dealer I bought it from won't do any work on it "we don't work on them unless there's a check engine light!" 2. Did the panoramic roof reseal " broke my A pillar covers, broke my rear dash camera, left the dash camera wires...

    Take it to a dealership, there is a customer satisfaction program (CSP) for my 22', High voltage battery module replacement andor battery energy control module becm software update Campaign# 23B57. The service department told me that they don't do the CSP work until the customer has a problem...
  11. Faster level 1 charging

    This purchase was in January. All the wire is kept behind locked cages, to buy it, a store associate gets it from the cage then carries it to the cash register, you pay for it, then it is given to you. You can also buy a cut length from a spool and it's even more expensive per foot! Here's a...
  12. Required Dealer Service

    I changed my cabin filter at 3,000 miles, and replaced it with one for a Lincoln, a much better quality!
  13. Faster level 1 charging

    I actually have two, a hardwired ChargePoint at 48 amps and the 14-50 receptacle for the Ford mobile charger. I put the big Ford charge station pro on the shelf, it's more power than I needed.

    The Ford EVSE says 32 amp on the sticker. It says 32amp on the EVSE.

    This stuff is crazy like the stock market! https://www.lowes.com/pd/Southwire-125-ft-8-3-Stranded-UF-Wire-By-the-roll/5013981183
  16. Faster level 1 charging

    The last time I bought wire, 125 feet 8 gauge wire was almost $500. So to have someone install for $800 is a good price. Make sure you get a industrial rated receptacle. Check around for rebate programs, in Pennsylvania there is a program that will pay for the install. Also check for IRS...
  17. Vehicle charging capabilities?

    My 22' came with the Ford mobile charger 16 amp at 120volt and 32 amp at 240volt. If you have to by a mobile EVSE do your homework on this forum and choose a charger with a good reputation. I do have a 14-50 on a 50 amp breaker at camp and use my Lectron 40 amp mobile charger (I also bought the...

    The best thing you can do as a new owner is to set up an account at ford.com. There you can find everything you need to know about your lightning, recalls, costumer satisfaction program, a online manual and lots of other information you will need. Here's a screenshot:
  19. Phone getting too hot from AA

    iPhone user here, the Silverado I traded in on my Lightning actually had cooling in the phone charging pad, not so lucky with the Ford setup! After getting overheating messages from my expensive new phone when using the Ford charging pad, I pulled the fuse from the charger and mounted a magbase...
  20. Can’t set charging location at home -[fix post 42]

    The GPS address on mine is off by two houses, so I just set my home at the wrong address, worked every time after that. I have the same problem with delivery drivers that just use GPS for addresses and don't bother to look up at the house number.
