PT-25.11.4 Charge Port Functionality & Cold Weather Performance

[sdchris]

I installed this update yesterday and woke up this morning at 100% charge. I’m not sure why my preferred overnight charge time and percentage were erased but they were. I swear there’s always a bug after an update.

Just got this notification on my 2024 Flash

So it was at dealer for a few days and dealer talked with ford engineers and this OTA is trying to update what the park prawl recall already updated 🫪. Makes no sense but whatever it will supposedly be looked at and OTA re sent

It’s now makes sense with ford saying the OTA updates modules that were updated with the prawl recall since this OTA just failed and failed and never installed since it was already installed when they did the recall and ford software /OTA just suck and must not talk to each other

so ford pushed a new OTA OBCC

I’m glad to see some ‘24 flash models getting it finally, I’m still waiting. I feel like I might be alone waiting here soon lol. Might have to ask the dealer what’s up!?

It's a random occurrence with these OTA's be patient.

We have two Lightnings (one for for me, one for my son). We both got the OTA update PT-25.11.4 for the charge port lock and primary/secondary drive units.

Since then, both trucks have been showing the same strange behavior:

1. We had to push buttons on the screen twice - say for answering a call, Navigation, etc.
2. Tailgate ajar icon (red icon on right side of dash illuminated). We had to lower the tailgate and re-shut it.
3. Both trucks refused climate start on the iPhone Ford app. The phone briefly displayed a red triangle on the Climate button a second or less. The trucks did not start the climate.
4. Infotainment screen got hung up and stayed hung up until it was touched.

Anyone else?
Any ideas?

Try disconnecting the lvb for about 20 mins.

I am a bit worried about trying to disconnect the LVB, has anyone else experienced this new Ford Pass issue?

Didn't think about it, but today I had number 1 happen, pushed to call someone about 12 times before it finally went through, I assumed it was the poor connection by my house. Haven't had any of the rest.

Okay - update. I ended up updating the Ford Pass on my phone, then I had to restart the truck manually. Then the Ford Pass ended up working again.

I have a 2024 Lariat, and I still have not received the separate PT update. I had asked the tech about it when he applied the 25C69 recall fix on the truck, and he said that this is included in that recall update. I haven't tested this functionality out yet (locking the charge port on a DC fast charge), but can anyone else confirm if this is the case on their truck?

I can confirm this. I cannot remove the DCFC plug without a key or PAAK connected and pressing the unlock button.

I do know that if you press the unlock button on the charge port, it would stop the charging and cause a charge error, but it would not come out until you unlocked the car.

So, to be honest, the update does not work as intended because someone can randomly stop charging your car without being able to remove the plug.

Thank you for the update! So, it only really partially works as Ford intended. That tracks. LOL.
