Not sure how long Ford, GM, and Stellantis will last once the Chinese cars take over the rest of the world. This guy doesn't think it will be long. Tesla seems to be doing very well financially at this point.
So Ford FDRS is bumping your computer IP location against that being reported by your vehicle and suspending your account if they aren't close?
I know my internet IP location doesn't match my house location because I use Verizon Home Internet, but it's usually within 100 miles. Hopefully this...
I use this power supply for updates to both my MME and Lightning with no issues. Under heavy load the output voltage drops so I monitor and adjust voltage during the programming process. I use a DMM to double check the output voltage instead of just relying on the power supply meter. Little...
Thank you. That's equivalent to the VCM 2 and the Mongoose. A VCM 3 takes less than an hour.
I don't close the Lightning or the MME door when updating.
Was the IPMA one of the modules you updated? If so, do you remember how long it took? More than 1 1/2 hour or less? Just wondering if the TOPDON is equivalent to a VCM 2 or a VCM 3.
You can't just replace your 10-30 outlet with an EV rated 15-50 outlet, Hubbell, Bryant, or Levitron because they won't fit into a single gang box. Box will need to be a deep or oversized 2-gang box.
Isn't Ford now offering free charger installs? If not, maybe can buy a charger at a...
I bought my Lightning from a dealer 2 1/2 hours away. When I received a recall letter, I made an appointment with my local dealer. When I went in they indicated that the selling dealer should have taken care of it, since it was flagged before I bought the Lightning, but they were more than...
My in-laws were experiencing GFCI breaker tripping almost every day with their ChargePoint EVSE. I hardwired it and replace the GFCI breaker with a standard one and it hasn't had a problem since.
If you received a letter from the IRS, then your dealer did send the IRS a form 15400. When you submit your form 8936 with your taxes, enter the correct VIN and don't check the box that you gave the dealer the $7500, but don't claim the $7500 either. The IRS will send you a letter letting you...
It's a cloned VCM2, that's why VCI Manager can load the latest Bosch firmware onto it. I've used it with absolutely no issues, including updating the IPMA and PSCM modules. Also use it with FORScan.
As the ad indicates, you shouldn't use the cheaper single board clones for updating modules...
