Mine worked for a couple of weeks as well until the 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE update. Progress in reverse.
I'm going to put together a Pre-Drive CheckList for all the items I have to acomplish before putting the truck in gear - A/C off/Heat off, recirculate on when it's cold & I don't want to use...
YES - What a FUN ride !!
13,700 miles since end of January with two long trips - 3,700 miles DFW to Michigan and DFW to Albuquerque & numerous other highway trips - 0.10 cents per mile overall cost.
Cost breakdown: 13% at home (0.11/kWh): 66% DC & other out of town charging 21% free at work...
SOC at start was 8%. No A/C in hanger, in Texas it's been HOT !! +100dF. I would assume that after the charging session ceased that the truck would turn off & no battery conditioning would occur & if it did for some reason, that the plugged in charger would "top it off". I've never heard...
Thanks for the info & suggestions.
I'll fix up a quick connect to the LVB and plug it into an aircraft battery maintainer (AGM also) and see if that solves the drain problem. Probably be end of October before I have another extended idle cycle
320 * .82 = 262 by my math - my truck usually shows 320 miles range @ 100% +-
My GOM has been pretty accurate & adjusts quickly to driving conditions. My concern in posting is where/why is 95% SOC decreasing while plugged in for several days/weeks.
No departure schedule set - usually not sure when I'll return to the truck. It's just sitting there plugged in. It is curious that it indicates on the Ford App that it's 95% charged, but the range displayed for 10 days was only 262 miles & seemed low.
I frequently leave my Lightning plugged into 120V charger in a hangar while I'm out of town. Plug it in, tell it to charge to a certain level & monitor it's status on the Ford App. After several days, the App indicates it's charged to the level I've set. However, when I return a week or so...
I find the Sport mode gives a nice approximation to a standard transmission & will decelerate/regen nicely without brakes on, additional light braking will increase regen. Seems the last resort is for the actual brakes to engage, hence optimizing the regen. Now, if they'd just fix the system...
Another option would be an adjustable EVSE charger such as this one - I bot one last fall & use it quite a bit at home. It's adjustable from 10 to 40 Amps...
Don't move to Texas to avoid taxes - they're just about to throw a $200 annual EV tax on us (instead of gas tax by the mile). Only vehicle "property tax" tho is on commercial vehicles.
Wife & I are currently on a trip from DFW to Sault St Marie & have a 110v MiniFridge plugged into 110V in the back seat area & small Microwave in the bed (it blew circuit breaker in the back seat (only 15A apparently). Cooking some meals/snacks during charging sessions. No issues with road...
A bit off topic, but wondering what's the purpose of having the truck fully "ON" to run Aux power ? Why not just Accessory mode - seems like a bit less overhead & much less chance someone just driving off with the truck while it's "On" !!
I've had my '23 Lariat ER since 24 January & have received no update messages and this screen for 3 weeks now. Phone call to Ford 3 weeks ago indicated it would update, but so far no joy
I've had my Lariat ER since 24 January & 3,800 miles & don't think I've seen any updates to date, tho I got a notice from Ford of one coming. Screen says I'm up to date. Everything works fine, FordPass talks to the truck & I can do all the functions on the IOS app without issue. Beuing a...
2007 Lexus RH400h - 5th hybrid I've owned - 145k miles & nice ride with no battery issues (if you don't count replacing 12v battery 3 times). Dropped the ICE crutch & went all-in electric. So much more fun in the Lightning !!
