  1. SK On on their Solid State "breakthrough"

    I think we will hear much about SSBs in the next few years. When the cars hit the roads, that's when everything from production glitches and technology refinement will take place. I think China is also building plants. CATL and BYD may be a couple of years ahead of SK.
  2. 1 Pedal Error and Front Power Train Error

    I believe most of the time, this problem is caused by a non-immobilization OTA update that causes communication errors on the truck's internal network. The OTA updates can be applied while the truck is running and can affect a number of systems. It has been known to cause the front motor to go...
  3. UPDATES NOT COMPLETING DUE TO BATTERY LEVEL

    I simply closed the frunk on the extension cord initially. After that I permanently mounted a battery maintainer on the back of the access panel and ran a cord from the 12v battery bay to a permanently installed 120v socket in the front air scoop. I plug it in any time I'm not going to drive...
  4. Charging While Driving Works w/ Gas Generator in Bed (Range Extending for F-150 Lightning) - Testing

    Not for me. If I need something like that, I'd have a different truck. Love my truck the way it is and nothing in the vote list captures that. A generator howling in the bed of the truck for hours on end would be extremely annoying. I'll take the extra coffee break - quietly.
  5. Truck accelerated from stop and rear ended car in front.

    It is scary that there are more than a few cases of this. I've had the case where I've touched the resume button while turning in a parking lot once and had to hit the brakes frantically. I turn cruise completely off now when I exit the highway. For the OP - immediately have the truck...
  6. Chirping/clicking noise when first driving

    I didn't hear much in the video, but I'm certain it can be solved with a good soundtrack. :sunglasses:. Seriously, though, it could be the climate system moving diverters around to balance the cabin temperature. One thing that is notable - the Lightning is a VERY QUIET truck and sounds like...
  7. UPDATES NOT COMPLETING DUE TO BATTERY LEVEL

    @Ford Motor Company, there is a fairly obvious solution here. Leverage the DC-DC converter while applying updates instead of relying on the tiny 12v battery. In the case where the DC-DC converter itself needs an update, simply run it first for a while if the 12V battery SOC needs it before...
  8. UPDATES NOT COMPLETING DUE TO BATTERY LEVEL

    LVB BMS reset: Make sure 12v battery is fully charged (drive an hour, or after an hour actively charging the HVB) Start Accessory mode flash high beams 5 times step on brake pedal 3 times red battery icon on dash should flash 3 times If the dealer changes the 12v battery, they should do this...
  9. UPDATES NOT COMPLETING DUE TO BATTERY LEVEL

    Hopefully, a new battery will do it. Make sure it has time to fully charge after the replacement. You may also have to reset the BMS after it is fully charged so it can recalibrate to the new battery. My 2023 Lariat is on its 2nd battery, and I think it is getting weak now too. I have a...
  10. UPDATES NOT COMPLETING DUE TO BATTERY LEVEL

    Another option is to schedule your update for an hour or two after your nightly HVB charge cycle starts. This gives your truck time to top up the 12v while charging the HVB and gives it a full charge for the update. Note your HVB charge cycle must be about an hour long to top up the 12v. If...
  11. 18" Vision wheels with 275/70/18 Cooper tires on 2022 Lariat

    Looks great! I like the wider stance. Are these 18"X9"? They look slightly wider than the factory 8.5" rims. It squares out the 275 tires nicely.
  12. Extreme over predicted range!

    The faster you drive, the faster the SOC will disappear per mile. Much faster. Speed will kill range faster than anything else. Our trucks push lots of wind and wind power/drag is exponential. If you drive 130kph, you need 2.2 times the power to overcome the wind resistance than driving...
  13. Brights flickering on turns

    See my post #7 and #15. I have no such oscillation with my Canadian truck with factory glare-free so something else is at play here.
  14. Pro Power Onboard - preferences?

    Yep - early adopters are still hoping for that OTA update :sunglasses: @Ford Motor Company
  15. Pro Power Onboard - preferences?

    I have a 2023 so the truck must be on for PPOB like your 2022. I have not noticed any reduction in range whatsoever if I run PPOB in the bed, which is the big inverter, and must be turned on to use. Small Frunk/cabin inverter starts in the ON state. Of course, there is a measurable impact if...
  16. Ordered General Grabber 116 T and dealer accidentally put on 115 S

    Agree with @Henry Ford. My winters are 115 and run fine even fully loaded. I pull trailers up to 6000lbs (sometimes more) and load it heavy a few times per year, but even if you load it up with a decently heavy tongue weight on the trailer, the difference is only 150lbs per axle between 115...
  17. Pics and range info: Eibach 2.6” leveling shock and KO3 295/60/20 tires on Lariat ER

    Looks good. I might do the same when my current rubber wears out. How do you find the road noise with the KO3? About 3% of your apparent range reduction is because of the larger tire - you'll cover more ground every revolution and it will appear as a range reduction unless you correct for...
  18. Brights flickering on turns

    Do you still have the Auto-High beam switch on? Maybe try turning it off. Anti-Glare does not require high-beam.
  19. Make mine a blue one, with a frunk...

    Still, it would be fun to rent for a day off when no wood hauling is needed... :sunglasses:
