  1. 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning Platinum - Charging location Issue / Ford Support Issue

    If the 10.3.0 update was applied to your truck, it may have borked the charging locations. It did for me. There's a thread on that: 10.3.0_Removed_Charging_Locations What fixed it for me was disconnecting my 12V battery for about 30 seconds and reconnecting it. Then initiating a charge at home...
  2. Carwash Light Show

    Awesome! A well thought out setup. Appreciate the great details. It's far beyond what I'll need, but it does give me some ideas for a retrofit to use RO. Thanks!
  3. Carwash Light Show

    @Altivec great setup! How did you do your soft water setup? I'm considering it to avoid having to spend time drying off the truck after washing. You must live in the warmer part of Edmonton. I visited the area last winter and they had a few days of -50C with the windchill. Flights were getting...
  4. Announcing: Expanded Charge Settings – Take Control of Your Charge

    @Ford Motor Company great to see these improvements! These are features we've been missing compared to what Tesla and Rivian have been offering. Hoping they're rolled out to us in a timely manner.
  5. Did OTA 10.3.0 Remove Charging Locations?

    I had this happen the first time it tried to install 10.3.0. Plugged it into the charger and then the update succeeded - seems like actively charging helps keep the 12v topped up better.
  6. Living in The Lightning On The Road -- Almost a Year and Counting

    @Sdctcher I'm impressed with your adventurous spirit. Thanks for being a great part of this community. Wish you all the best on your travels! I haven't tested it myself yet, but this might work. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C2ZT1Z16?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_13
  7. 2023 XLT or 2022 Lariat?

    I'd sit in them both and drive them to see which I liked better. They're both great for different reasons. Being happy with my Lariat, I'd personally lean that way and add the extended warranty from Granger Ford.
  8. F150 Lightning FORScan thread - Version 2

    This would be great to have until Ford gives us turn signal cams without a trailer. Do you have the Forscan codes to enable 50/50 view? I couldn't find them specific to Lightnings.
  9. OTA Software Update 10.1.1 - Enhanced Connectivity and Power Management

    Just got 10.1.0 for my '22 Lariat ER. It's a good update. Been a long time since I received a meaningful update. The Google maps features are a welcome improvement. Now shows estimated battery level at arrival and it adds stops at EV chargers along the route if needed. It doesn't appear to...
  10. The frunk is so slow!

    I wish. Watch the truck freak out - unless you come to a full and complete stop, put in park, wait for longer than you think, then finally push the frunk release button on the dash. And good luck with all the beeping that ensues if you decide to put it into drive before the frunk has...
  11. Frunk Space Heater?

    You might try removing the bottom cover in the frunk and measure the temperature after a drive. I've noticed that lower area gets fairly warm since it has an open drain to the area below - the components below give off a fair amount of heat.
  12. Google Maps EV Routing for Android Auto Now Available for the F-150 Lightning!

    Sounds like a great OTA. Hope this actually rolls out. We've become skeptical because there have been a lot of feature announcements without actual rollout (for example, Blue Cruise 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5).
  13. Erratic charging from 85% - 90%

    Ok, is no one asking about this little item? Which update added this? Have a 2022 and have been missing having this useful piece of info when charging.
  14. Hack for lowering spare tire?

    Great idea! Thanks!
  15. Car scanner app works pretty good with CarPlay

    It's working on Android too. You need Carscanner installed on your phone, then look for the Carscanner app in your list of Android apps on your truck's screen. All the above mentioned bluetooth obd readers should work. I'm using this one...
