  1. Storing Lower-Cost Energy in Your Lightning to Power Your Home and Returning Power Back to the Grid

    Hopefully the backup power transfer meter hardware that PG&E in Northern CA installs for free (currently) can be made more widely available and be modified to work as a power on demand system rather than only working when the grid is down. As members may recall, a Ford rep popped into the...
  2. New study of 1,300 EVs busts battery degradation myths

    Didnt read it, but having owned a Volt I can guarantee there were no Volts that retained 90%! Total bricks after 12 years.
  3. Lightning Club Annual Event hosted by Tom Moloughney & Ford (Oct 25) - Chester, NJ

    How about a west coast sponsored event?
  4. Key Tracker?

    no I used a separate AirTag holder like this (Amazon link): https://a.co/d/bVZ3Vs7
  5. Key Tracker?

    Mine does, with the help of an AirTag plus a Ford key fob holder. Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09MMBJH3Y
  6. Leaving AC running with truck locked? - SOLVED!

    Are you locking the doors after you get out of the truck? It beeps/unlocks for me if I lock it prior to closing the door (I leave the keys in the truck and use the keypad to lock/unlock, not sure if that's why).
  7. Powering your home via PPO WHILE also using solar

    Is this the same as the PG&E BPTM (Backup Power Transfer Meter)? If so, my understanding is that it only works if the grid has no power (and your solar breaker is turned off)-- are you saying you can use it whenever you want, even with grid power?
  8. New to EV. Trying to decide between SR and ER to keep 200k+ miles with 100 mile daily commute.

    I love my Lariat SR, never had any issues that made me wish I had an ER battery. The people that really need ER are those in cold weather areas who either have a long commute or tow often. Welcome to the forum and let us know what you get!
  9. PU-Sync-25.2.1.6.5 - Walk Away Lock Toggles: Post 203 Final FIX!

    Hmm, now that you mention it I haven't had this issue with my CarPlay audio in at least a few weeks. Fingers crossed it's fixed!
  10. Disappointed - Multiple, unrelated warranty work items

    Did you check that the “Heat” button is enabled in the climate settings? It randomly gets disabled now and then.
  11. Easy way to safely access backup power for home and free (for some PG&E customers)

    What year Lightning and what trim? I have a '22 Lariat SR and had the same issue as the OP that required the adapter.
  12. Range not close to as advertised

    As another data point: my 3 year old Lariat SR consistently gets 2.4 summer, 2.2 winter (mild winters in Northern CA). Like others said, ignore the range number (guessometer), it's overly conservative (low).
  13. Fordpass no longer shows vehicle software updates

    Yeah it's been missing for awhile. The update info used to come in to the "Messages" section and I would save those messages so I had a history of updates, but the most recent one I have now is October 2023 and I've had at least several updates since then.
  14. 2.6 mi/kWh?

    Over what time period? The value for a single trip is mostly meaningless (due to variations in wind speed/direction, uphill/downhill, etc), that number is only reliable as an average over many trips. I use Trip 1 for tracking long term mileage, and I reset it every May 1 and Nov 1 in order to...
  15. 2022 Route Planning: What's the best for IOS user?

    Personally I prefer ABRP, I use it to plan trips and to check the recent reviews on each charger station that I plan on using so I know they are working. Then when on the trip I use the maps app (google or apple) to plot stops at the chargers I plan to use.
  16. Power onboard turning off

    Is your truck running? It needs to be running in order for outlets to be powered.
  17. Air filter change and debris

    Thanks for the tip. I tried to order from Ford website that you linked but it was giving errors. I found it much cheaper at RockAuto thanks to this thread: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/cabin-air-filter-motorcraft-fpp92.29191/ Order link is here...
  18. Air filter change and debris

    What is the process for changing the air filter, where do you access it? (yes I'm too lazy to open the manual)
  19. Charge to 100% on L2 charger, but GOM shows 84% on startup

    What brand/type of coolant are we supposed to use? I will need to check mine, wasn't aware this could be an issue after the module replacement. I did notice that the first time I charged after getting it back I was hearing some gurgling sounds from the battery area as coolant was circulating...
  20. Charge to 100% on L2 charger, but GOM shows 84% on startup

    Not sure I've heard it called an "array" before, but I'm assuming they are just using a different word for module. Each truck has ONE battery pack Which contains 9 modules Each module contains many cels (20 or 30 ish I think). If a cel goes bad, they have to replace the module that contains...
