Heater went out on mt 22 Lariat ER. They refilled (eliminated the air pocket) in the coolant. Problem solved, but it took two visits. I tried the electric space heater and it tripped the breaker with only a 600w heater. I tried the plug in the bed and same thing. The only thing I can get to...
I tried to set a departure time to precondition the batteries about a year ago. It never worked. Then I started getting messages that the cabin was warmed and ready to go...at 3:19AM. Now I cannot even find the screen to set a departure time. I have been writing software for 54 years. I...
I plugged in a different heater and when it hit about 1400W the breaker tripped. I reset everything and turned the heater on Medium and it pulled 800W. The plug and heater stayed on. BTW, I tried to use a wet-saw in the bed of the truck and it tripped the breaker immediately.
For the second time my heater does not work. The dealer cannot look at it until 12/17. So, I have tried to plugin a space heater and it trips the proPower outlet in the cabin. ProPower is set to 90w on the outlet and it does not allow me to increase the wattage to support the space heater...
Now you know why Elon is the richest man in the world. I have 32K miles on my ER Latiat. Only once did I try to find one and then charge to batteries. 4th location worked. After 45 minutes on the phone with EVGO. 3 hours later I was on the road again. Love the truck, hate the charging...
I have a 22 Lariat ER. I had the dealer look at it..said they recharged the AC...road tested...OK. Not OK. Last year it was HoTTT. Now it takes about 5-10 minutes to start blowing lukewarm. In 30 minutes it is comfortable. It is going back to the dealer after Thanksgiving!
Sun Run impressed me as a boiler-room operation in 2022 when I bout my Lightning. When the first person to answer the phone said I needed to confirm my order with a manager, I told them to get lost. I installed the smaller charger at both of my homes myself for a fraction of what SunRun wanted.
I have been dealing with Bob Bell Ford for years. Glen Burney, Maryland. I have a 22 ER Lariat w/ 31K miles. The heater stopped working. Yesterday, I was 2 hours late for my appointment, no problem. I needed a ride home, within seconds of me asking, there was a driver standing in front of...
No, I am saying that rotational energy is a big deal. And, that the regeneration hardware is tuned to the weight of the rotational mass. so is the acceleration.
There is a balance in rotating mass when it comes to expending energy for accelerations and recovering energy while slowing down. 40% of breaking/accelerating force is consumed by rotating mass. 79 pounds is optimal. Else you risk efficiency loss.
the web site us FUBR. Interesting that Ford has no idea how to deploy a highly scaled solution. I cannot wait to see how they perform when I try to use a Tesla Charger.
Aero drag is the biggest factor, unless you are towing. Try tucking in behind a semi on the highway to extend your range. I just did a 31 mile drive on the highway at 23 degrees and got 2.1M/Kw. Behavior is everything on this issue.
Check your tire pressure. Range drops about 20% when the temperature hits ~60. I have a regular 150M route on the highway and get between 1.7 and 2.1 M/Kw. I can hit upper 2s and low 3s when driving at 25mph on the island. As a benchmark, I only get 220M out of a tank of gas with my Carrera.
