  1. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    For what it's worth, here is the final report from the Ford rep. Never got anything from the dealer. Doesn't tell me a whole lot but I'm sure many of you will understand it better than me. At any rate, the truck is running fine
  2. Charging error (All 5 segments turn RED) HVB Module failure

    That’s what retirement is all about - getting lazy. I’m 87 years old and worked pretty darn hard all my life. Give me a break ?
  3. Charging error (All 5 segments turn RED) HVB Module failure

    That list looks like it came from the US government. Who in the world can remember all that.
  4. 120v charging troubleshooting

    When you are driving, does the main battery charge up the 12 V battery?
  5. Charging error (All 5 segments turn RED) HVB Module failure

    Please please try to eliminate so many abbreviations. Like many others, really enjoy the site but often confused by abbreviations
  6. 120v charging troubleshooting

    I usually charge at 220v, but once while visiting my daughter I tried to charge at 120 and it failed. Tried again at home with same result on several circuits. Brought the charger to the dealer to get it checked. They said it worked fine. Took it home and tried on same circuits and it worked. Go...

    If you have an experienced service provider, i’ld go for it in a second. If not, i’ld be careful
  8. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Thanks Javier. I don't know how you do it but you're a priceless asset to this discussion panel. It does raise a little bit of concern however as to how confidential your information is. Best to assume that anything that goes out online is available if someone wants it. Since I don't do...
  9. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Although I have not received a complete detailed explanation of what was done, I assume that the entire computer was replaced. The truck was returned to me on Friday and everything worked well. I was surprised that all of my settings had been restored and everything was correct other than the...
  10. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Got my truck back this AM. Fortunately, everything was working properly, and all my settings had been restored. Even the connection with my phone was working. My thanks to all of you who helped out with suggestions. I also appreciate the excellent support from Ford motor company. Great to have...
  11. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Regarding the 12 V battery, they never said anything about replacing that nor was I ever having any known problem with it
  12. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    For what it’s worth, I got a call later this afternoon that they had located the part and were installing it, and about an hour later, around 5 PM, they told me the installation was complete and they would plan on delivering the truck tomorrow morning. Keeping my fingers crossed. Of course, I...
  13. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Here’s a laugh. When I texted the Ford rep for an update she contacted me and told me that she had contacted Arrow Ford. They told her that the new part had arrived, but they didn’t know where it was so it couldn’t be installed. The Ford rep assured me that she would get in touch with Arrow Ford...
  14. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Again my thanks, but as I previously stated, communication has been the biggest drawback. All they told me was that they tried to restore the computer and were unsuccessful. As of now, much of the communication is going through the Ford motor company representative and I am going to text your...
  15. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Thanks for the information. I don't know how you did it but you have given me more of an explanation than I have gotten from anyone up till now. Perhaps if communication had been better, this issue would not have escalated to the point it has reach now. Unfortunately, I'm still not receiving the...
  16. ABRP v Google Maps

    We have found that as we get more comfortable with our new Lighting, range anxiety lessens. We pretty much pre plan our stops and simply turn off the suggested recharge stops in Apple Maps. If, f some reason, our preplannig looks off, we use some alternative app to locate a stop. With more and...
  17. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    I tried to upload a video of the screen showing the endless litany of electronic faults, but apparently the file was too large. Yes, the truck was drivable, but all electronic aids were disabled. The dealer has acknowledged that the computer was totally disabled and they were unable to Unlock it...
  18. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    Perhaps it wouldn’t have been so bad if he had recognized the error and advised me of it instead of driving off telling me that everything was OK. He had to have realized the problem when he drove the truck back into the garage.
  19. Software update - If it ain't broke, don't fix it {fixed post#32}

    That’s what I have. Seems way under powered. I don’t see the appeal. In 1969 I bought the original Bronco. Wish I had kept it!
