I believe you said your powertrain malfunction alarm cleared after powering the truck off and restarting, correct? If yes, I’m thinking the system just needed to reboot itself, but I’m certainly no expert, that’s just based on doing research on my own issue.
Sounds like your issue may have just been a glitch, possibly occurring after a software update, due to your alarm clearing after cycling the truck.
I believe most of us that have experienced the powertrain malfunction and/or the high voltage alarm and require battery module replacement have a...
I have my truck at the dealer now to replace a single battery module and I was told 3 to 4 days for the part to arrive and then 2 to 3 days to install.
I got the powertrain malfunction message on Christmas Day where my power was reduced down to 56%, even though the battery charge was at 90%. The power distribution screen is a quick way to check if there is power going to both motors, indicated by blue while driving and green during...
I just went out and got mine fixed up, after the wiper motor recall was done, the key must have fallen out and was dropped into the plastic molding below. Took about two minutes, a small dab of grease to hold the key in place, good to go. Thanks to those on this thread for the help!
Added a...
What was the difference in temperature on the days of using the heated wheel versus not using it?
From my experience, the drop in efficiency you noted sounds completely normal or expected due to colder weather. I’m in New Jersey and I’ve already seen a 10 to 20% drop just over the last few...
So they replaced parts due to a single air dam fault code?
i’ve probably had at least 60 faults, which I believe they were able to see and clear at the dealership. The service manager reached out to Ford to see if they should do anything other than just wait for the upcoming update to the...
My truck was in for the 10k mile service and I told them about the many times I’ve gotten the fault; it even occurred during my drive to the appointment. As someone already mentioned, They said a software update is coming in March.
The last couple of occasions where my departure times failed to work, I adjusted one of the scheduled times by 5 minutes and it got it working again. Several weeks later needed to do it again.
Do you recall what the battery temperature gauge was reading?
When I remote start, my battery temperature gage will remain slightly lower than the midpoint, and it stays that way for most of my 25 mile commute to work. When I precondition, the gauge will be dead center when getting into my...
From what I have learned on here, when doing a departure time while being unplugged is actually nothing more than a scheduled remote start. It conditions the cabin only using the remote start settings, and in this scenario my heated wheel is always warm.
When I do a plugged in precondition I...
I had my truck at the dealer to have this issue checked out and the tech retrieved a couple of the codes for when the malfunction occurred, checked out the system, checked for any TSB’s etc, but no maintenance or repair was actually performed. They said bring it back if it continues.
I’ve been preconditioning when plugged in as well as not plugged in. I feel like even without it plugged in the battery and motors will be closer to operating temperature rather than a cold start and driving away. Temps in the 40’s, I’m only losing a few miles of range preconditioning unplugged...
