  1. āœ… 10/24 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    You can play with the preferences. It allows you to set a preference for fewer long stops or more short ones. You’ll also want to get Plugshare and check that the chargers it is routing you to are up and running.
  2. New Electrify America EA Chargers Are Failing in the Cold

    I watched his update and it definitely looks like it’s the chargers. The good thing is that it is a consistent problem across all of them so it should be easy for them to isolate the source. It doesn’t seem like the main functionality of the charger was affected, just the ability to get past the...
  3. First Lightning Road Trip - from Raleigh, NC to a family get together in Myrtle Beach, SC

    Curious where you charged in Holden. There seems to be a few level 2 chargers near there. The only DC options are the Harley dealer in Shallotte that seems to be broken or the one in Downtown Wilmington. Did you use the one at the Mad Boar on the trip?
  4. New Electrify America EA Chargers Are Failing in the Cold

    The fault he was getting was an isolation fault. I wonder if the snow was a bigger factor than the cold. If he had water in the charge port there may be too much leakage current causing the fault. The new chargers may be too sensitive to leakage or the old ones are just more dangerous. It might...
  5. First Lightning Road Trip - from Raleigh, NC to a family get together in Myrtle Beach, SC

    I bought an OBD dongle but I didn’t get it in time to set it up before the trip. I actually connected it on the trip home so I’ll get real time data from now on. It looks like it has already updated the reference consumption based on the trip home.
  6. First Lightning Road Trip - from Raleigh, NC to a family get together in Myrtle Beach, SC

    Last weekend we took our first road trip from Raleigh, NC to a family get together in Myrtle Beach, SC. We almost didn’t take the truck because there are only two DC chargers in Myrtle and looking at Plugshare they both seem to be broken. After some more planning we decided to take a chance...
  7. Neutral Switching Transfer Switch

    I just bought this one but I haven’t had time to install it yet. It switches the neutral. You have to add a 50 amp breaker to your main panel to feed this but you will be able to remove any breakers that you move to the transfer switch. I was worried that my panel is full but I’ll be moving 8...
  8. Heated Steering Wheel deletion and retrofit clarity

    I don’t think anybody knows for sure but if Ford corporate says it can be retrofitted and a local dealer says it can’t I’m going to believe Ford. I think the steering wheel and the column have the heating element and all of the connections and the missing part is a switch module that plugs in...
  9. FordPass not responding

    Mine last updated at 9:09 pm 12/13. I just disconnected the 12V and now it’s back. I guess I’ll keep a 10mm wrench in the frunk from now on.
  10. Front Camera Washer

    Did the ā€˜22 model come with the little pop out washer on the front camera? I noticed that my ā€˜23 does not have it and I thought I saw a post earlier that showed the washer on a Lightning. Did Ford delete the washer on the ā€˜23s? I have a 510 Lariat so maybe it was only on the 511 or the Platinum.

    There’s a great post on the Bronco forum that gives all the details. https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/here-are-the-bronco-build-tracking-links.22795/
  12. Priority Update: 22-PU-1009-MIL-DTE Calculation

    I’ve only had mine for a couple of weeks so I haven’t gotten any OTA updates yet. How do you determine what version you have? I have looked through the manual and tried all of the setting screens in the truck but I don’t see any version numbers. I assume I am on a 3.x.x version based on what I...

    Consider yourself lucky. You saved $500 and now you can pick up a more reliable mobile charger with more features for less money.
  14. FordPass on Sync 4a Screen

    Tried last night and couldn’t find the FordPass icon in the truck. I went back today and opened the app on the phone and it appeared. I didn’t have to give any permissions and it gave me an error. I closed the app on my phone and reopened it and the error went away. Before I tried this I could...
  15. I am admitting it here... I am going to have to practice patience and discipline while driving my new Lightning

    You will have to learn some discipline. I had a 2018 eco boost and I got used to the turbo lag. On my way home from picking my Lightning up I came up on someone going slow in the center lane of the highway. As soon as the left lane opened up I stepped on it and started to move over. I...

    Yes, it was Granger. I used the link they posted to look at the example costs and chose the time and mileage I wanted. I sent the request to Granger and they responded with brochures and the attached. Since it’s Ford they make it confusing so that some things are included if checked and others...

    Also, there are a couple of optional add-ons that you can select. One covers all of the lights and the other covers the key fobs. I added lights after watching a video of a wrecked Lightning. One headlight assembly is about $1700. The key fobs are expensive but with a @100 deductible it’s not a...

    I just bought an 8 year, 100k mile warranty from Granger for about $1500. It can be transferred or if something happens you can get a pro-rated refund minus $75. My dealer tried to sell me a warranty with a monthly payment that would have added up to over $8k so I showed him the Granger site...
  19. Cargo Nets for Frunk and Bed?

  20. Cargo Nets for Frunk and Bed?

    So I went and took a look at the ā€˜23 order guide and it shows the cargo net included on Lariat. I’m going to email a copy to my salesman and see what he says.
