When using the app to remote start / turn on the AC, do we know if there is any control from the app (iPhone in this case) other than a signal to say 'start' and the truck then decides what to start - heat or AC?
The problem / question is it is over 80 degres in TX these days and I've used...
These codes don't leave much to the imagination and anyone with FDRS (your dealer is using it) can tell in 5 minutes if there is a battery module issue and exactly which one needs to be replaced. Sadly you're getting screwed by the dealer. Especially starting off with the 12v battery...
I'm sure anything is possible, but it is also about the most inconvenient thing ever. I've just forgotten I even have one and allow it to charge via cable. If I'm in the truck I'm plugged in just for CarPlay.
That was pretty much all weekend for me. I got the frunk update downloaded on Friday and applied on Saturday. Only update I've had in several weeks. I'm not sure we have any information on exactly what, but I truly think they push other things to these trucks that may not be SW updates -...
I do know from redoing PAAK before that the Passcode gets deleted, but reality is setting in that this is not the leading technology company and I realized this weekend it's time for a faraday bag. It will arrive today. I may also just pop the battery out as I truly hope to not need it...
This weekend mine started coming up with the My View selection screen. I also get Calm once in a while. Ford reads this forum and knows we need the "calm" to deal with this truck, so they keep offering it.
I know the phone app makes it easy, but you don't need it to do anything. You're showing all of the truck screens too, but to eliminate network, phone, app, etc. I would continue to ensure you are doing everything from the truck screen. Just eliminates a few variables. At a minimum make...
Dang this truck is troubling. Just as soon as I noted sometimes your hand needs to be damp - I was in the rain in Norman, OK yesterday and TWICE I had to use my app to even get the truck to unlock. It wouldn't recognize my hand and BT/phone combination for anything - and those handles...
Also received likely Friday night, but didn't see the notice til I got in Saturday morning. interestingly it was an inhibit update. I guess they don't want any issues with the frunk opening during install. I was on the road for a 400 mile trip yesterday so I installed after I got home...
This one makes your mind dig deep, but I'm not sure it matters which "mode" BC wants to say it's in. Should you start a decline and it needs to control the speed of the truck and it were to "apply" the brakes - that is regen, until a certain point which it likely would never get to while on...
I've seen it referenced on the ICE forum, but I don't know if anyone has experience yet here. I would think the Lightning is following what they are doing there.
My phone stays well charged. I keep it limited to 80% and charge overnight at home too. If I'm in the truck it is plugged in and charging, I have issues with the wireless CarPlay. I always thought the USB C charged quickly, but I get the point, that for pennies it likely could be better...
@jnthn98 - I'll add that your perspective is nice and appreciative to know the differences in small parts and how easy they could be changed out. However, this isn't Tesla where they continually make updates throughout the model year.
While not the USB C port, but the phone charging pad if...
There is nothing that will be put into this truck that doesn't net Ford more money in their pocket. Hence deletes and downgrades for the newer models, not upgrades. This truck will die in a few years like it is or with less than today. You might hope that when Ford finally builds something...
I am right there with you honestly. The two dealers I've called won't do these with mobile service due to the battery issue. I just don't want to go in and wait all day and let them have the truck and deal with their BS. I know I have to though - my 3 year basic warranty is up in July...
