  1. Repeat “Electrical System Drain” alert after 12 V battery + full module re-flash

    There are a number of threads on the forum on this topic. Low SOC on the LVB can be caused by a number of things. Short drives or driveway shuffles are particularly hard on it since they light up all of the modules for about 1/2 hour and after 2-3 shuffles, I'll get this message. Also, not...
  2. Ford has no parts - not ok will not buy this truck again

    Which dealer? We want to be aware of the crooked ones.
  3. Frunk loud pops when opening

    I also always get the pop when the latch releases. I believe the latch sucks the front of the funk lid in tight to seal the frunk from the elements and the pop is the latch just releasing that. Perhaps a slightly better latch design would eliminate the pop but 2.5 years and mine sounds the same.
  4. Shifter to rotary shifter - part number?

    Many shifters are just faulty. I agree with your careful, definitive movements to reduce wear and tear on mechanisms. In my case, the shifter had a burr or piece of crap from the manufacturing process that caught inside the mechanism in the first couple of weeks and it was evident by the...
  5. Shifter to rotary shifter - part number?

    I hated pushbutton shifters in ICE because of the mechanical transmission delay - no delay on EVs. I prefer a push-button shifter in an EV. Less chance of error. Press the correct button - go the correct way. Don't spin to "P" when you really meant to stop at "R" and shear your parking...
  6. Multiple WAL "walk away lock" alerts at home

    This seems like odd behaviour. The truck should send one message only when it locks the truck. Mine has been like this since the dealer update for the front motion sensors. I get one message only - even when I walk right by the truck. My wife's MME has native WAL and again, only one message...
  7. A couple of buying questions...

    48 amps for me. On rare occasions, the 48 amps doesn't quite do it if I come in at 11pm and need to leave at 7am but I don't usually need to do the trips back-to-back so it works out fine. I nearly always have 10 hours to top up using 48 amps if I drain the batteries low. On my ER: 12 hours...
  8. A couple of buying questions...

    This is very subjective. It really comes down to what you need to do with the truck on a weekly basis. I do a weekly 400-mile highway round trip, and a weekly 200-mile highway round trip. The ER makes a big difference in charge times. SR would have to stop twice on the 400-mile run because...
  9. Finally got my plates

    580 HP might be more fun. Someone with 700 HP might want to give it a go at a stoplight, and we just smile and drop the hammer on 775 TQ and AWD.
  10. Finally got my plates

    Nice. That MAY entice some stoplight excitement for folks wanting to test their theories. :sunglasses:
  11. Charging Issues During/After Fast Charge Visits?

    Hope it works well for you. Curious, was the defective adapter the short stubby Tesla-manufactured unit or the longer Lectron-manufactured unit?
  12. Charging Issues During/After Fast Charge Visits?

    Stopping the DCFC charging session should always release the lock pin, regardless of how you terminate the charging session. The app, button on the truck or button on the charger will all terminate the charge session and release the lock pin on a properly working system. The opposite is true...
  13. Charging Issues During/After Fast Charge Visits?

    The unlock button is intended to STOP charging and release the CCS lock so you can safely remove the charge cable. If your truck STARTS charging AFTER you press this button, this is an important piece of information for the dealer as it is certainly not working as intended. The charge port CCS...
  14. Full charge, bang, "Exit vehicle safely" - truck dead in driveway

    It sounds like the others have said - the main HVB fuse blew for some reason. The fuse is part of the HVBJB module located in the battery pack at the front, so they'll have to drop the battery pack to get to it. The question is "Why". Please report back when you get the diagnosis.
  15. HV battery junction box?

    These are two different items. 23B57 is for the HVB (software update, if update fails, Control Module replacement), and 23B70B is for the 12v battery BMS sensor on the negative terminal - both minor. As others have said, all of the items appear to be standard Customer Satisfaction Program items...
  16. HV battery junction box?

    It would be excellent if someone had a source for the true comparison. Agree on the Toyota: legendary reliability and an aspirational goal for all other automakers.
  17. Looking for a charger I can contol my charging rate with

    Add another for Emporia. It allows me to adjust the power in the app from 48 amps right down to 6 amps. More useful in your situation is that Emporia allows you to charge on excess Solar so you don't have to babysit the settings. The downside to this setup is that you need to spend a few...
  18. Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power

    Ouch. I'm guessing you were out of warranty? No issues for my 2023 yet (warranty for a few thousand miles still). I have the rotary shifter sitting on the shelf if/when it goes.
  19. I drive FAST - how much faster will my battery wear out?

    Giddy up. It'll handle it. Tires will take a beating, though :sunglasses: . If you are giving her around a corner, hang on - that much torque can get a little squirly.
  20. Scary charging error on roadtrip at EvGo, red light on ring and could not charge anywhere

    In your case, since it affected both DCFC and L2 charging, I expect the charge controller may have needed some time in OFF mode to process an update. In many cases, the updates do not require immobilization and the updates are applied shortly after ON but require a long enough OFF cycle to...
