Thank you for all the tips and tricks on clothing and heat - I am just trying to find out about the ability to alter this setting on FORScan. I can not find anything in the control modules for this but I am far from an expert.
Unless your sleep in the foyer of your home it's not really an issue.
The people who fall victim to these attacks are the folks who walk in the door and throw their keys on a table right next to it, or have their key rack right next to the door. Just don't do those stupid things.
Keep your...
Is it possible to change the MIN and MAX temps the HVAC makes available? For reasons unknown Ford made a bizarre decision to arbitrarily limit them... you can only lower the temp to 60 degrees F/15.5 degrees C... if you set it lower, it just totally disables the heat and says "LOW".
60...
I am also very interested in this. I want to disable it on the side mirrors. I don't care so much about the rear view but the dimming of the side mirrors creates a major safety issue for me because I can hardly see anything... I cant even believe it is a thing.
Is there something I can maybe...
Except... it isn't. The former will wear the cells more.
Unless it's in a garage.
As I said... take the rules of thumb on lithium chemistry I said and apply them as needed instead of using carbon-clone advice not applicable to the nuances of everyone's situation.
Rules of thumb
- It is best to keep battery between 30% and 80%-90%.
- Every time you charge a cell it loses a little life. Charging needlessly is something to be avoided.
- Conditioning battery for a brief period is better than running or charging it cold. If the battery is warm then...
That is not unique to Rivian, it is also how Tesla's heat pumps work and I imagine will also be how Fords work... it would kind of be braindead to not capture the waste heat from the motor and battery and redirect it to the cabin if you're already making a heat pump.
When Tesla added a heatpump the cold-weather delta was measured by various reviews - it was 3.2 miles/kWh with a pump, compared with 2.9 miles/kWh for ones without. That is 0.3 miles/kwh extra. Does not sound like a lot, but it is actually a 10% increase in range in cold weather which is quite...
I am asking about the two USB ports next to the wireless charger.
Doing online research seemed to answer my question - these are charge+data ports, so modding them would be tricker, but not impossible. Essentially what you need to do is cut the input wire, and rewire these to be connected to a...
Has anyone contacted their dealer for updates on this? We are entering cold temperatures very soon. The heated steering wheel stopped being deleted some time ago so it can not be blamed on a supply issue anymore.
I am going to contact my salesperson today and will report back but it would be...
Does anyone know where the 12v converter module is for these ports? How hard is it to get to? I wonder how hard it would be to buy a half-decent 30A or higher output and mod it in.
The other problem with the frunk is that you cant easily manually close it. I have been in a situation before where the truck got into some glitch... I pressed the frunk close button on the outside, but it only closed 1/2 way, then I pressed it again, and it opened a little bit, then got stuck...
The problem with this is one of these are going to happen
- One of the other people is highly likely to hit you on the way out.
- You will probably hit one of them on the way out, because there is no "auto escape from tight parking space" function.
There is a lot of confusing things going on in this thread
#1 - OP is not complaining about Blue Cruise. They are complaining about the speed sign recognition feature. This feature has nothing at all to do with Blue Cruise, it has to do with regular cruise control. When enabled, this feature is...
Its ridiculous that they don't let you just pick whatever picture you want here.
No,I don't really want my own photo on my car screen all the time, and the stock 2 or 3 options Ford gives you are awful.
