  1. 12 volt warning in cold while plugged in

    hi everybody! Please have a look at one of the newest csp's regarding the 12v battery system. They have found that there are problems with certain part numbers. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/csp-23b70-certain-2022-23-f-150-lightnings-bms-sensor-replacement.17900/ Also...
  2. One Pedal vs Two Pedal Driving — which is more efficient?

    I'm all about the one pedal except for icey conditions. I noticed that using 2 pedal and coasting on the ice was less efficient.
  3. Streaming Youtube in Ford Sync

    I signed up for the streaming services and then called support again. After about 20 minutes the agent was able to tell me that there may be a module missing and that it wasn't possible to use video streaming in my truck(it still may just be software but no way to confirm). It only cost me $15...
  4. Streaming Youtube in Ford Sync

    You have spurred me into getting to the bottom of this. Text chat with Ford support says originally that video streaming to the vehicle wasn't allowed by Canadian regs but it should be allowed now and that software updates should have enabled it. Called Ford support and they seem to think it...
  5. Android Auto getting EV battery information integrated into Google Maps (starting w/ Lightning)

    Interesting, are you using wireless or a wired connection? I had no problems outside of AA when I switched to Bluetooth.
  6. Setting Charge End Time

    That's a fair enough chunk to find some savings if you were able. The trick would be to get the software to accurately predict when it had to start.
  7. Receiver Hitch Recommendation?

    None of the f150s have that. Check out ford's towing guide online: https://www.ford.com/towing/
  8. Android Auto getting EV battery information integrated into Google Maps (starting w/ Lightning)

    After the last update my Spotify will drop the audio ramdomly, I have to unplug, plug back in to get it back. It will do it sometimes twice a day, sometimes every track. As i mentioned before, having a locked map as half the screen is horrible. Waste of a beautiful screen. I also tried...
  9. Setting Charge End Time

    No its not the most efficient, I would agree. But that's not the point. The battery preconditions at the departure time as per the manual. Also, when it's cold enough the truck asks to be plugged in, it's to keep the battery more cozy. The longer I can keep the battery happy the better...
  10. Setting Charge End Time

    P. 196 of the owners manual I have: You can improve driving range and performance by scheduling departure times and cabin comfort level with the Departure and Comfort feature. This not only warms or cools the cabin but also conditions the battery to ensure the best driving range and performance...
  11. Streaming Youtube in Ford Sync

    I'm fairly certain that the Canadian vehicles don't have that capability. It looks like it's bundled with other USA related apps that we don't have. Probably due to cancon or some other benign reason. I was slightly annoyed when I couldn't find it but I'm not sitting in my truck that often...
  12. Setting Charge End Time

    If you set a departure time for 630am mon-Fri then your truck will charge to the desired soc and precondition the battery. Just having the truck plugged in keeps the battery warmish, departure time it's fully ready to go. Tldr: departure times
  13. Question for 240V Portable Charger Users

    They had problems on the initial batch, they have made several improvements over the years, there are multiple part numbers now. I have a newer unit and it works flawlessly, like most other newer users.
  14. Forscan to disable auto side mirror defrost or auto timeout of climate recirculate?

    Not a good idea. It's designed that way to keep everything more dry and functioning properly. I didn't realize the mirrors had an auto mode, I haven't seen it working that way, what are the triggers for that?
  15. Android Auto getting EV battery information integrated into Google Maps (starting w/ Lightning)

    I love the idea of new features but since the current android auto features don't work reliably I'd prefer if they fixed it first. I would also prefer to not have to look at the map screen or blank "enable gps" screen for the 98% of driving I do that doesn't need a map. I use AA almost...
  16. Next GEN Ford F-150 Lightning Better Than Cybertruck: Farley

    They are what we thought they were. Same batteries in a different package.
  17. 240 non-stop driving in snowy conditions

    Having driven in snow my whole life I can tell you that my gas vehicles also suffered reduced range while driving in snow. Everything has to work harder to get through it. Good news is that one day there will be more chargers.
  18. More emphasis on 120V charging

    From the owners manual: Battery Systems We recommend the following actions for your vehicle: • When storing your vehicle for greater than 30 days the state of charge should be approximately 50%. Additionally, we recommend disconnecting the 12v battery which will reduce system loads on the HV...
  19. PRO STATION ISSUES

    Sounds like your station is not installed correctly and/or has loose connections. I would recheck all connections at the panel, fcsp and anywhere in between for proper assembly and torque. If that doesn't solve it then it may need warranty replacement.
  20. Preconditioning for DC Fast Charging

    Can you not override? This is all done through the Ford nav, not AA or carplay.
