You gotta get your Ford engineer friends on this forum to help us out then :)

My first year of ownership was entirely level 1 at home (level 2 at work). So I concur we shouldn’t forget about level 1 as an option, especially when traveling. That’s an interesting solution to hide the EVSE in the frunk. Never would have thought of that.

This is weird. It seems like Ford is saying, we just want to dissect your truck and take a look at your battery guts just because.

I’m still super curious to hear what they’re going to say, even if it’s an EV Pinto.

I’d also like to see some pics. Personally I think amber is a safer color than red for this use case.

Did you use carscanner to get the error code? At least the error code is very descriptive.

So far my fitcamx has been working fine (front and year) for over a year now and hopefully I didn’t just jinx myself.

I had ChatGPT fix the issue for us.

Update on my battery percentage drop. I found a local level 2 charger and used that to charge up to about 95% and everything was fine. There seems to be some kind of software bug when level 1 charging above 90% in my case. The BMS wasn’t able to figure out just what state of charge the battery...

Your originally described PAAK issues in post 1 mirror my own issues. And I have not had the keypad replaced. It’s just been flaky since day 1.

I just experienced something like this for the first time. I’m on vacation with only level 1 charging. The truck had been charging on level 1 for about 44 hours straight from 54% ish to 93%. I unplugged and went to the grocery store. Ride there was fine. On the 3 - 4 mile ride back the battery...

Haha yep my kids discovered this for me one day by accident.

Fun fact. LFP tech was invented here in the US. I’m finding it puzzling that we can’t figure out another way besides using CATL. A brief AI summary:

It starts out really positive but then..

You can buy one now and just keep it as a backup. It just plugs in like the stick shifter. That’s my strategy for now anyways in case the shifter dies on me when I’m in the middle of nowhere.

The summary is, today's guardrails were built for vehicles with a higher center of gravity (i.e. an engine block). But since EVs have the battery packs way down low, the guardrails simply can't stop them from smashing right through it. The Lightning wasn't mentioned in the video, but the Rivian...

wow yeah this guy's experience sounds really familiar :)

This is a new error to me. I can't recall having seen this one before. EDIT: looks like it was in this thread the convo was just moved to.

Just noting I also got the update last night and that there are no toggles to actually turn it on. I haven’t done any Forscan or FDRS tweaks with my truck yet since I bought it.
