  1. 2023 F-150 Lightning: battery hit 419°F with zero warning, zero fault code, zero shutdown

    Not insisting that the battery or any component thereof actually hit the temperature that was reported simply because someone said it was read that way. I would have called the BEV hotline and had a case number started. I would be taking the advice of people here and asking my case...
  2. Cruise Control. "Hands on Wheel" Warning Every 45 Seconds

    Oh! I forgot that existed. I used it a long time ago but discovered if you do that, it disabled hands free BC as well. Since I don't have BC anymore, I might try that again. Thanks for the reminder!
  3. Charge to 100% gets down to 90% in less than half a mile

    I would try deleting charging locations and re-establish to see if it will report stopping the charge at 90% again. Without and OBD reader to dig deeper it's hard to say beyond educated guesses. There's known symptom where one intentionally charges to 100% but it immediately drops into the 80's...
  4. The dreaded "STOP SAFELY NOW" message and the cause...

    There are, I've seen half a dozen posts over the years. Some seem to work, some don't, some only in certain regions of the country, seems like a crap shoot. We have pack rats here that have gotten into some co-worker's vehicles. One have started using led strip lighting under his RV to deter...
  5. Cruise Control. "Hands on Wheel" Warning Every 45 Seconds

    Button on the wheel, to right of the cancel button. It will automatically turn on every time you turn on cruise. It stays off if you use cancel/brake and resume.
  6. Cruise Control. "Hands on Wheel" Warning Every 45 Seconds

    This is my experience, it's tiring having to make sure there's enough downward pressure. It's often easier to cancel lane keep and maintain my sanity.
  7. The dreaded "STOP SAFELY NOW" message and the cause...

    Putting my conspiracy hat on, they found a way to get us into the service bays!
  8. SOH is not battery capacity

    That's a dangerous thing to do, reducing that buffer to maintain useable capacity means we inch closer to 100% actual and potentially overcharging. I have my doubts that Ford would allow that and my data indicates the opposite. 95.5% actual has not changed over the past year when I hit 100%...
  9. Charging Amperage selection - MY2024 and Prior

    Best guess, Ford is too busy putting AI in their app. At least they added karaoke to keep us occupied while we wait for actual requested features to be implemented.
  10. FCSP Software Version 2.500.34-ford.27+26-08

    We had some big storms come through overnight Wed. I don't know if we had a power surge that may have reset the FCSP, but when I plugged in yesterday, it immediately started charging at 60A (which I had set on Tues). So I guess the change did eventually make it through, it just took a long time...
  11. SOH is not battery capacity

    Wouldn't Ah * Volt = useable capacity? If the voltage is the same, but the Ah is 5% lower, then how is the useable capacity still 100%? Clearly I'm still not understanding something. EDIT: Also, is your assertion based on anecdotal evidence or has Ford confirmed it somewhere?
  12. 2023 F-150 Lightning: battery hit 419°F with zero warning, zero fault code, zero shutdown

    We want to help you, but you don't seem to be listening. :( Good luck with your approach, I hope you get everything fixed. All I can say at this point is that I don't think you are taking the most efficient course of action towards a successful resolution of the situation.
  13. New Issues After Rear Light Bar Recall Repair

    Wow...kinda hard to justify not giving us the right to do these repairs ourselves when the trained professionals are breaking things.
  14. Charged to 344 miles?!

    I find it difficult to believe one could achieve 3.0mpk without regen. Seems pretty safe to assume he means lifting off the go pedal.
  15. Something about this really stinks...

    I don't know why they still bother. Beyond sad at this point.
  16. 2023 ER XLT with 45000 miles on it has gone into "stop Safely Now" mode: Fixed post #32

    See post 33 and 35 just above, looks like he had a bad part that needed to be replaced. There are a lot of errors that can make the Stop Safely Now warning pop up. Do you have a OBD reader on hand to check voltage variation? I assume you've tried turning it off and back on, could also try a 12v...
  17. Coolant valve broken, no parts, buyback: Fix#92

    I got fooled by seeing a puddle from A/C condensation when I noticed my reservoir was low. I agree with others, top it up as the air bubbles work themselves out. I'd only check for leaks if you get a DTC or have to put in more than a liter after a couple weeks.
  18. FCSP Software Version 2.500.34-ford.27+26-08

    That's an interesting observation. I'll experiment a little tonight before I reboot.
  19. FCSP Software Version 2.500.34-ford.27+26-08

    I tried upping my charge rate to 60A. It says it saved in the app but it does not appear to have taken. I'm still charging at 40A. I'll try adjusting again after I get a chance to reboot. Perhaps it's a one and done per boot.
