  1. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    ChatGPT 5 surprised me because it's usually wrong but I actually think this is the correct answer. Who knows, maybe some intern at Ford copied the actual technical document into ChatGPT to get a summary of it and now it's part of its training data :crackup: In 1-Pedal Drive mode, the Lightning...
  2. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    I've had this happen too, same thing it was a big grey trailer in front of me. My guess is the truck was too tall for the radar in the bumpers to see it properly and being grey on a cloudy day also made it invisible. Now I turn it off if I'm behind a truck (or motorcycle, just in case)
  3. Debate regarding braking, regen, and brake light illumination.

    OPD never applies the brakes, in fact it's the opposite. You have to manually step on the brake to get more stopping power if needed. When you let off the accelerator in OPD mode it uses the resistance of the motors to slow down the vehicle and recharge the batteries. My brakes still look new...
  4. Ford Pass v5.22.0 iOS & Android

    You are forgetting to include the build number. In the betas you can have multiple builds with the same version number, but only one public build with that version number. The current beta release is "5.22.0" but also includes a build number after it. Also Ford can use feature flags per user...
  5. If someone breaks into the Lightning and does not have a recognized key, does the interior frunk button work?

    Isn't this the same problem? The tailgate release button is right next to the frunk button and would let them into the bed, although I think there might be a way to disable the power tailgate in the menu. Never tried.
  6. Hoping Ford Integrates DashCam Sooner Than Later

    I just bought a new car with Android Automotive. Sadly, it makes the system in our Lightnings feel 10 years dated. The biggest benefit I've seen (besides the built-in dashcam) is how snappy it is. Sync 4A feels like a sloth now.
  7. Software update buzz saw noises from the truck🤪

    This seems the most likely answer but now I'm wondering if it just didn't do this would we even need the power supply!?
  8. New 2023 Platinum Lightning - Needs updates?

    You can do FDRS if you always want to be on the bleeding edge but obviously has costs and time implications. What I would do is tell the dealer that Carplay isn't working as expected and tell them to reference TSB 25-2048. This directs them to update a TON of modules and would get you the...
  9. Tinted light bar

    Need some pics of what this looks like when lit
  10. Ford Perimeter Plus Security System

    You need to get closer to the middle of the vehicle near the console / cup holder area which is where most thieves will be poking around. I don't think you want it to be super-sensitive. On my last F-150 I had a moth living in my truck and it set off the motion sensor multiple times every...
  11. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    your situation makes sense, but this feature is only audible to passengers inside the truck.
  12. 2024 Platinum replaced 2023 Lariat 1st impression

    It definitely does scratch extremely easily. Mine will need to be repainted soon. That can be turned off. I don't know why anyone would want that on. It's a stupid feature. You should also notice quite a difference in the sound system, at least if you're playing from a high quality source.
  13. Ford Perimeter Plus Security System

    Added this to my 23 Platinum that had the deletion at factory. This is a fantastic cheap and simple mod. I had this feature on my old F-150 and liked having it for the extra piece of mind. As a side note my dad's '23 gas F-150 which was built the same week as mine also had the delete. Before...
  14. FordPass 5.14.0 Available (iOS & Android)

    It's an update to the app. I don't think it's rolled out to everyone yet but has been available to EAP: Discover the new service screen, designed for better navigation and at-a-glance vehicle status.
  15. Ford Perimeter Plus Security System

    My part came in today. Probably a stupid question but does it matter which motion sensor goes where?
  16. Heated Steering Wheel Retrofit PU-22G06

    @Jesse-Infotainment @rugedraw I've made the changes in Forscan to enable remote start heated steering wheel. My As Built was updated 5 days ago and I can confirm all my changes went up to the mothership. Fordpass however, still doesn't show the option for the Heated Steering Wheel. Do you guys...
  17. BlueCruise dead spots ?

    Do you have BC 1.4? It could be other reasons of course but it looks like there are curves in the road. Same thing where I live but with BC 1.4 it now stays engaged during those gaps and in some cases even slows down the truck to navigate the curve.
  18. Lightning Software Updates using FDRS

    This was like 1.5 years ago so my memory on why is not clear but I know I could not use my main Ford account (the one tied to my truck) I had to create a second Motorcraft account. I don't think the account used to log into FDRS actually matters as the license is separate.
  19. TSB 25-2048 / 25-2105: Sync 4/4A General System Performance, Stability, and Intermittent System Reboot, etc. Post #167 updated

    I think a lot of people have the silent carplay issue. But I thought I was the only one on the speakers except mine is the rear will stop working. Bout as frequently as you say. Half the time though it happens I probably don't even know because I'm the only one in the vehicle.
  20. TSB 25-2048 / 25-2105: Sync 4/4A General System Performance, Stability, and Intermittent System Reboot, etc. Post #167 updated

    This is a big deal. Anyone that’s struggled with OTA and has “general system performance” issues can now get a lot of most important modules updated courtesy of Ford. The most exciting for me is that BCM is included since that one provides WAL functionality and I cannot update it myself through...
