I've tried searching the forum and asking AI what the following circled connector does, but found no answer. I've had a problem with my frunk hood not closing and not even sounding a warning alarm when either the cab dash, frunk hood, or FordPass frunk open/close buttons were pressed.

Overall, I'm glad I bought a Bak MX4 tonneau cover for my 2023 Ford Lightning Lariat ER. But two years and over 8,000 miles later, the cover just hasn't held up as well as I'd expect for a premium brand. On a recent 3,400-mile road trip to London, Ontario and back to San Antonio, the elevator...
The other day, I sleepily hooked up my NOCO Genius2 charger the wrong way round to the jump start points on my truck. I immediately got the reverse polarity warning on the charger display, unplugged the device, and hooked it up the right way round. Now it appears to be charging (AGM mode LED...
I thought it was just my iPhone and my truck acting up, but I've had trouble getting my iPhone to connect wirelessly with CarPlay. It turns out it's a bug in iOS 18.4, and Apple has issued iOS 18.4.1 to address the problem along with other issues. Apple describes the connectivity problem as...

Although I've owned my Lightning for a year and a half, today is the first day I've heard BLIP from Amazon about Alexa in my vehicle.
I got the following e-mail:
AFAIK I've never actively added my Lightning to my Amazon GARAGE (I didn't even know such existed).
If you follow the Get Started...
I've been using adaptive cruise control on relatively limited access 35 to 45 mph "country" roads in San Antonio. The cruise control maintains my speed and lane, even going around gentle, even curves.
Today, I was driving a perfectly straight one-mile or so stretch of 45 mph road with no...
AIA, if this has already been covered in another thread, but when I hit the Start Charge button in FordPass v5.9 for iOS, if I try to change the one-time target charge from anything other than 100%, charging stops. Does anyone at Ford test their software before it's released, @Ford Motor...

Trump’s attack on EVs to be bigger than thought - Ars Technica
With the exposure of the front grille camera to road dirt and road dings, I'm amazed there hasn't been a ton more discussion about the grille camera.
I've only found a few not-very-long threads on the matter...
I've likely got a new variation of the FRUNK WON'T CLOSE issue.
The various manifestations of the issue have been discussed in two threads:

Speaking of going grocery shopping (https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/ota-ecg-24-2-4-9-software-distribution-enhancement.19769/post-397663), when the wife and I came back to the truck in the store parking lot, and the truck was all fired up with its compressors roaring away to...
Just noticed that Ford has a cool online tool to guesstimate your range from where you are now according to your EV model and the season of the year. You can choose a one-way or round-trip option.
Presumably, the mapping considers topography and temperature, presumably picking routing...
Hi, @Ford Motor Company
Here's something pretty basic that doesn't work right and shouldn't be too hard to fix. It's a problem with iOS 17.x (and probably earlier iOS versions on the iPhone) and may be an Android problem, too.
I describe this as a problem for a hearing aid wearer (me), but...
Yet another chapter in my Home Integration System saga, but since it involves doing a Ford Factory Reset, I thought that part of my story might be of more general interest and others who've done a Factory Reset might chime in on how it fixed their particular problem and how reset recovery went...
