  1. Ford Lightning Pro Power Onboard failure on the last weld of the project

    Ford has had me replicate this issue three times. I have not heard back from them lately, but hopefully they are getting to the bottom of it.

    I received a call today from Ford Engineering department. They asked me if I would approve an installation of "Tokens" on my lightning. Apparently "tokens" are used as a diagnostic tool for Ford techs to be able to see deeper inside the workings of my truck. I've never heard of this before...

    I have a slight update on the Pro Power Onboard issue. The dealer is saying that they do not have a hard code for this issue. I'm puzzled because I received multiple alerts on my Ford app stating "service required see dealer". My question is what is the point for the Ford app to tell you to...

    Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum. I thought I better get familiar with this forum because of the issue I had last week. I'm the owner operator of a Mechanical piping company. We do many different kinds of piping but mostly welding. I recently purchased a brand new Miller CST 282 stick...
