I think you're mistaken about that. The documentation says trucks don't update when they are DC charging.

This post has what I figured out when I looked into this in the spring, it may be useful to you.

Dunno about this year but last year, genuine Ford F150 TPMS sensors were readily available, cheap, on eBay. I moved those sensors, along with a set of Blizzak LTs, across from the 2009 18" rims I was using on my ICE STX to the HDPP rims I found for the Lightning - after about a month of...

No ICE F150 rim except the 64H 18" rims from the Heavy Duty Payload Package is rated for the weight of our trucks - the ER in particular. The HDPP rims are hard to find but cheaper than the aftermarket alternatives. There are a few aftermarket 18s from reputable brands that are rated for the...

I read that as a unit like the ClipperCreek HCS-D50 which actually draws a maximum of 40A, for what it's worth.

The calculation is bonkers in numerous ways. Just some of the ones I've noticed: If you have scheduled charging set, it uses the total time from when you plugged in through when charging starts in order to calculate charge rate / time - resulting in an insanely low estimated rate and a...

Tesla doesn't build any 800V vehicles. But it sounds like as so often happens, @FlasherZ has the answer - the PowerPack itself is what has the 900V battery architecture.

Why would Tesla make equipment that could output 900V?

Are you sure? Teslas maintain battery temperature while parked. Dunno about the hot end of things but you pretty much have to on the cold end - the battery could be permanently damaged by freezing

Was changing lanes on the interstate in stop-and-go traffic yesterday when the truck suddenly displayed the autopark screen - for about 1 second - and then threw up "parking sensor fault" on the gauge cluster until dismissed with the OK button. When I got to my destination, shifting into...

Not this one! It's a block from a Supercharger and has only CCS (350 and 150kW) handles and one lonely Chademo handle.

Here's a curiosity: a cabinet of Tesla-branded equipment at the Electrify America charging station in Newburgh, NY. They've tried to tape over the Tesla logo on the front of the chassis but the builder's plate is unobscured. Not quite sure what this is. It might be the charger/inverter from a...

What vehicles, when? They did cripple DC charging for cars with the old 85kW batteries - as I'm painfully aware, having traded in a car I loved because that made it too tough to use for many of my trips - and they also briefly slowed the last 12% of charging on L2 for the same cars, but they...

This is not true. Tesla has never reduced the amperage of an existing L2 charger product. My two Gen2 HPWCs will charge my F150 at 80 amps today - just like they charged my Model S at 80 amps years ago. And notably unlike the Charge Station Pro...

Which version? I got two updates in quick succession in the past 3 days (3.2.0, 3.3.1) but neither had anything recall-related in the release notes and FordPass still shows my truck's recall work as not complete.

OK, but can you actually sign up? For me and others who've tried in the past several months, following the instructions doesn't work - the sign-up page seems to have been removed or disabled.

Still doesn't have the TPMS recall fix, though, 2 weeks after Ford's self imposed deadline...

OK, he's going to have to turn the advice from @FlasherZ 90 degrees then.

Tsk tsk do we know OP isn't in Canada? :p

So they made it official that you can't upgrade the BlueOval subscription to include discounted EA charging like their documentation says - even though it was possible for a few weeks? That's too bad, because without plug-and-charge, all too many EA chargers just don't work, with card readers...
