  1. Car scanner app works pretty good with CarPlay

    I’ve been using this one. I keep it plugged in all the time and I haven’t had any battery drain issues since I got the BMS replaced. It also works with ABRP and displays SOC on the map. https://a.co/d/7Yklimt
  2. Car scanner app works pretty good with CarPlay

    You can. Create new pages on your phone and they will show up in the menu. It only supports text, no graphs or gauges. Here’s the one I created a while back to monitor the 12V.
  3. Lightning soon to be spying on us . . ?

    Companies patent all kinds of things that they never intend to use. They use them as bargaining chips when they need access to other company’s patents or if they get sued for violating someone’s patent. Just look at what happened to the Apple watch when a small company was able to get the pulse...
  4. Tesla engineer warns against using extension cords at Superchargers

    Even if I thought it was safe (I don’t) I wouldn’t spend any money on it. I haven’t had any problem charging at Superchargers with the short cables. If Tesla doesn’t want me to take up two spaces they can add longer cables.
  5. CSP 24B56 - Inoperative Front Parking Sensor(s) - IPMA Software Update for Certain 2022-24 F-150 Lightning Trucks

    TSBs require a fault but CSPs should be done on all affected vehicles. It’s amazing how incompetent Ford service people are.
  6. FCSP to Tesla Adapter

    These adapters can be dangerous. They tie the AC and the DC pins together so you will be feeding AC back to the DC input on the FCSP. It probably won’t harm it since I think there is an open relay but you are taking a chance. If you connect a standard J1772 connector then you have 240V on those...
  7. GM can now use Tesla Supercharger network

    Tesla built a new site in Emporia, VA near the EA site and the 68 stall site is about 30 minutes south of that one. About 45 minutes south of the 68 stall one there is a Circle K with 10 CCS chargers and 20 Tesla Superchargers (Tesla only since there are CCS at the same site). Traveling south...
  8. GM can now use Tesla Supercharger network

    That 20 stall site I was at on I-95 (Roanoke Rapids, NC) is being expanded to 68 stalls. The 48 new ones are V4s and are under a solar canopy.
  9. GM can now use Tesla Supercharger network

    I’ve stopped at 8, 12, and 20 stall Tesla chargers on I-95 and I-40 and the most crowded it’s ever been is 3 vehicles including me. It might be different on the west coast but around here there is still plenty of capacity.
  10. In-Vehicle Karaoke Rolling Out to F-150 Lightning! (Stingray Karaoke App)

    @Ford Motor Company here is a list of all the entertainment options I would like to see added. 1. and here is a list of actual, useful things I would like to see. 1. Generator mode 2. Trip planning in the app 3. All available chargers in nav including Tesla 4. Frunk open without turning off...
  11. What does this indicator light on the dash mean?

    It should be standard on all trims so it might be time to visit the dealer. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/2024-f-150-lightning-orders-open-w-new-tech-updates-lower-pricing-under-70k-msrp-updated-with-specs-sheet.19160/#post-384042
  12. Supercharger FAQ?

    It seems the two best spots for non-Teslas are also the most popular spots for Tesla drivers. The photo is from last week when I pulled into a station with two stalls occupied and they were the far right and the forward one on the left. Yesterday I stopped at another site and again only the far...
  13. Ford Charge Station Pro Cord Replacement

    I believe the original manufacturer is Siemens so you may be able to get a replacement directly from them.
  14. Is Anybody Happy With Their Lightning?

    Best vehicle I’ve ever owned. Yes, it’s had a few problems but I’ve never had a vehicle that was problem free, especially when it was one of the first 20,000 built.
  15. What does this indicator light on the dash mean?

    Keep reading the next section. You need to tell the truck how long your trailer is so it knows where the blind spot ends.
  16. New here with some stupid questions

    It is a change in thinking. Some days I drive 0.8 miles round trip to the grocery store and when I get home I immediately plug in and top my battery back up to 80%. It takes me about 15 seconds to grab the cable and plug in. The upside is I never have to spend time going to a gas station. I also...
  17. New here with some stupid questions

    If you aren’t willing to install a 240V charger at home then you should not buy any EV. If you live in an apartment or other situation where it isn’t possible and you are willing to plan and deal with the charging problems then an EV is an option. But if you aren’t willing to install one then...
  18. Lightning Software Updates using FDRS

    This is my fear for the T3 truck. I’m afraid Ford is going to try to make it more like a Tesla when I just want a solid truck with usable software. With all of the features Ford has removed each model year it looks like the electric truck peaked in 2022. Even the app keeps getting worse.
  19. Slow charging with Autel 50A [Fix= replace SOBDM]

    What does the charging curve in the app look like? Has it ever gone over 3.7kW? That will show you the voltage and current measured in the Autel unit.
