I switched my "black box" data logger to the hardwired OBDLink EX, mainly because I changed location/hardware of the black box itself so it allows me to run a "dedicated" OBD interface vs. relying on the wireless MX+
(back seat vs. center console)
The MX+ is the wireless equivalent of EX and it...
Does anyone know if the trucks have a particularly soft paint?
Or, is the doors painted separately and staged in some kind of rack for transportation?
Reason for asking is that I was washing my truck and doing some detailing when I noticed that the corners / transitions on the doors was...
Ah, the excitement of another early adopters email, congratulations you're going to beta test the latest and greatest features... oh wait, it's just another survey....
This one in my opinion is the worst by far...
Were thinking about implementing a feature that can already be accomplished if...
I replaced my BMS sensor today and because my 12V battery have been "weird" the last couple of weeks I decided to replace that as well.
I opted for the diehard version over OEM...
$250 - 4x Tires, General Grabber HTS 275/60-20
6.5-7mm thread left (~8-9/32), used 5000 miles, stock tires that came with the truck.
I went to 22" and I'm using the stock rims for dedicated winters. No damage or repairs.
$75 - Set - All weather floor mats, brand new, never used (got Huskies...
Now this is VERY cool (to me anyway).
A while ago there wasn't much alternatives which is why I started my Black Box project, but I just stumbled on this which would cover 99% of all use cases plus it offers more of a "real-time" functionality compared to the black box plus it displays the data...
I think most of us who have run dedicated Winters at some point can agree that the Generals are awful in the snow...
I'm looking at dedicated Winters, and while my heart wants Hakkas (fantastic tire, had 'em on numerous SUVs over the years and it's like you're on rails) my brain is struggling...
Can a platinum owner please post a picture of their door jamb sticker ?
I've been unable to find something somewhere that tells me what pressure the 22s should run.
(I have a Lariat)
I've been tinkering with my own "black box" for the LIghtning based on a Raspberry Pi and the OBDLink MX+ OBD adapter and below is a sample of where I'm at right now, the "black box" is also integrated with ABRP and HomeAssistant to feed them various data.
I have four modes, default, driving...
Is anyone else having this issue ?
I'm getting these messages no matter what I do, stop it through the app or on the charger itself, car acknowledges the charging has stopped and the blue/white ring is white and still I get the message at this point.
Tonight, I just got another warning, only...
Does anyone know of a PID to capture GPS coordinates ?
I've been snooping around ForScan and I can only find 228012 on the AIMP / 7D0 module which works, but doesn't have a very good precision (unless I'm converting it wrong).
Found this in the driveway the day after I shoveled so it can't have been laying there very long.
Steel (magnetic) and looks like it's been spray/dip galvanized.
There's a dab of green paint on it.
I just got a new dashcam and was contemplating powering options and one of them was an external battery pack which seems so conceptually wrong given the fact that we're driving around with a ginormous battery pack, so why the need for another one ?
Then again, there's quite a few reports about...
I went to an EVGO / Meijer location today to charge and play with some logging and had a really weird session where the charge would randomly drop to single digit kW. The interesting thing is that if you look at the darker yellow line, that's the reported (by the truck) actual State Of Charge...
Why, I'm 100s of miles away !?
It would be nice if they could add some sort of geolocation that disabled PAAK (annoying notifications and battery drain) whenever you're not within range of the truck.
I get that too tight of a circle would cause other issues, but make it a mile or so, no need...
Is it just me or is this whole setup a bit a-- backwards ?
So apparently it only works to stream music (amazon music) unless you have the Ford Stream option, or, a data connection that isn't the in-car ATT plan/hotspot, because that doesn't work either. You could use your phone as a hotspot and...
I bought my truck out of state due to work related issues, so I have no tie to any of the local dealers.
Which one would you consider the best for EVs ?
Anyone else have this problem ?
Not sure if it's a software issue, but you'd think the truck would complain if no GPS signal is found.
I drove about 900 miles last week on 3.5.2 and the GPS was fine.
Since then the truck has been in the garage since Saturday (could potentially have lost signal...
So, I just took delivery of my truck and on the 15hr drive home I had some time to get acquainted with the truck and most of my annoyances are software related... Wifi / Wirelss Android Auto is one of them.
When you enable Wireless Android Auto you also enable a feature in the truck called...
The Ford website ("Reservation & Orders") have been redesigned over the last couple of days and now when you click view it jumps straight into the co figuration breakdown and no build date in sight.
Is it the same for everyone else with one scheduled for build (mine was 9/5) or should I start...
