Punt. Call the dealer and ask for a knowledgeable tech to FaceTime you through it?

Hello all, thanks for the invite. I joined this group because much of the information appears a bit more technical. I came into possession of a lightning main battery but I'm not sure what I'll even do with it.

What do you know about the battery -
1. why was it available (removed from a truck due to failure? )
2. is this battery the 98kW, 120 or 131 ?
3. can you test the voltage - how long has it been idle ?
4. do you have any of the other parts from the original truck -ie the charging system?

Marnin fellow Canadian. I have no other parts. I have a friend who works at scrapyard and he's hooked me up with them. As far as I know they are working fine but they've been out of the truck for 6 months. The one I want to sell is a 2022 ER, 143.4 kwh.

Glad to be approved into this group! I've had a few EVs and plug-in hybrids in the past and decided to trade in the most comfortable car I ever had (2023 Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid Pinnacle) for the full electric truck I now have with Ford. This first week it has worked and felt great. Feels comfortable whether driving in the city area or on the open highway. I wasn't ready to spend $55-$90K on a truck and didn't need the higher range (Tesla Supercharger worked well on it this week) and generally am home every night. So fortunately found a late 2024 build put into service for Ford Corporate folks locally in March, and they only used it for 2-3 months and <3000 miles, so didn't have to spend much after the trade. Official sales price $42K one week ago today! It doesn't have a lot of the XLT upgrades others have, but I don't need those. I'm happy to be driving it now and look forward to a lot of years! Really love that it was only first put in service in March and I essentially have the full bumper to bumper Ford warranty to enjoy.

Hello all, and thanks to the admin for the add. I'm a big fan of the Ford Lightning and need to get one soon! My name is Jay and I work with a home battery OEM that allows integration of isolated EVPE outputs like from the Ford Lightning to our generator input to augment system/equipment during an islanded/standalone event. I've been asked to stop by and clearly answer some code questions on grounding and bonding and GFCI... please be kind, lol.
