Enabling charge speed on dash.

[WaterboyNorCal]

I'm all for updating vehicles, but this data is right there in CarScanner, so if it isn't an easy FORScan update, I see no reason to bother.

Not only that, but it’s in the Ford Pass mobile app also. And at Tesla Superchargers, the Tesla app will tell you also.

Definitely haven't seen that one before. Did you try reinstalling the beta? nm. See you got the error on the beta first.

I reinstalled the normal forscan twice. Just to be sure. Hopefully the forscan gods will figure it out. I just want to fix my 24hr clock and the phone button on the wheel. lol.

yeah mine isn't giving the requesting data from server message. In other news my charger coupler apparently got too hot and I don't even recall having it plugged in then.

Code: P1A3E - Battery Charger Output Limited - Battery Charger Coupler Temperature 'A' Too High

If you updated the PCM it just means the PCM strategy is not in their database yet. Enter this

I believe the requesting data is if you have a free license .. COuld be wrong.

I pay for the yearly license. I like the idea of helping to support the platform. I will try that strategy number when I get home tonight and report back.

Well I like having it on the dash. Side note free charging at my current work location and a 23 with 80amp charging ain’t too shabby.

Thank you my friend. Once again you save the day. This worked and now I was able to fix those last 2 tweaks.

Pretty sure I've got everything I need:

Power Supply (100A Server)
Forskin Beta.. err.. ForSCAN
Ugrade file
24 AB file.
Laptop that has power supply and hibernate disabled.
USB EX adapter.

But It just hit me. I know some cars get upset about the driver door and other quirks. I live in the PNW, where we get rain and cold (and stink bugs) - and my beloved is an ardent woodworker (so the shop is out of bounds)

Can I just confirm I won't screw anything over if I close the driver and passenger doors doing this? Would rather *not*come back to damp seats and critters

That's what I did. Set it running, closed the doors and monitored the laptop over teamviewer from the comfort of my couch.

Cool Cool. Thanks. That makes me a *lot* happier . It's currently not raining, but it's looking like it might, and if this is going to take 6 hours... I'd like the cab to stay dry if it rains!

Are you going to do a video on it? Been a few requests. Initial set up and any gotchas you run into might be useful for others.

I recall this too..but during the hours-long upgrade, I opened and closed the door (got in and out) many times during the process and no probs.

yEAH.. You can get in the truck open the door.. But if you trip on the cable.. or pull the cable by accident, youre starting all over. Especially if its during the 120 flash.

Not promising, but we'll see what we can do.

The local utility company are doing serious work in the area, and so I'm going to have to do this at a weekend rather than a week day (so that there's lower risk of the power going out due to a power company thing)
