  1. F-150 Lightning powering house after tornado power outage

    @Big guy I plug into a L14-30 receptacle, less ground, at my garage panel. Bonded ground is at the main house panel. Very simple but could cause the truck to go hot (high voltage) if there was a ground fault somewhere in the house. @Dino, I did get my generator started before I figured out to...
  2. F-150 Lightning powering house after tornado power outage

    Milton passed over us a week ago. About 11:30 PM on Wed the utility power went out. I turned off the main and WH breakers, plugged in the gen cord to Pro Power and gen receptacle, turned on truck, and off we went to power the house. At about 9:30 AM the next morning the Pro Power tripped out...
  3. Basic understanding of HIS (Home Integration System) functionality

    OK, so let's assume that a blue tooth pairing is required. Couldn't any F150 pull up , pair with the system, and just get started?, is the initial pairing a show stopper?
  4. Basic understanding of HIS (Home Integration System) functionality

    Does this mean that only the home owner's vehicle can use the HIS to power the home? I am curious if any F150L can pull up to this HIS, plug in, and power the home during a power outage? For example, if this HIS was installed on a community center, or homeless shelter, could any F150L pull up...
  5. Energy Storage/Whole Home Backup/Home Integration System (HIS)

    Does the HIS allow any F150 to plug in and power your house? I thought I read something where there was a pairing step when setting up HIS. Maybe this was a connection with your phone and not the truck, I don't recall. The question is, is the HIS specific to a single truck or can any truck be...
  6. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    I still have the old harness that is cruise control but not ACC (the harness does not have the plug for the radar unit).
  7. F-150 Lightning powering house after tornado power outage

    Because the house main electrical panel has the neutral wire "bonded" to the ground wire at the main panel per code. That bond is tied to a ground rod. The Lighting PPOB neutral is also "bonded" to ground in the truck. Now there are 2 bonded ground points. The length of neutral wire between the...
  8. Ignorant Sales people amaze me

    You left me hangin right at the end without saying why dealerships don't like EVs. The last 2 sentences didn't help at all.
  9. A Tale of Two...Hubbells!

    There is some important information here:
  10. A Tale of Two...Hubbells!

    First thing is that these are both 14-50R with the R meaning receptacle. But I do see your point with the R actually stamped on the face of the new one. I'm not sure what that means and hopefully someone can answer that. Second is the 2nd pic shows the difference in the width of the receptacle...
  11. Ignorant Sales people amaze me

    So for the car salesmen here, what is the commission on a truck sold at the sticker price that only shows a destination charge? Is a dealer percentage baked into the sticker price? I have heard dealers don't make much money off of new car sales and that makes sense. I also can't see regular...
  12. Lightning xlt clicking noise when put in gear from park

    When I depress the button on the shifter, I don't move the shifter just depress the button, I hear 1 click that sounds like that.
  13. Bezel Diagnostics Menu (undocumented in owners manual)

    This did not work for me. The Vol (-) button is obvious, and I also pressed the |< (a vertical line with a triangle to the right of that line) button on the opposite side of the steering wheel. Nothing happened (well, the radio volume decreased and the radio channels changed). I then pressed the...
  14. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    Do you have proper voltage at the radar sensor connector? I did read a post that someone verified the voltage and polarity (while installing? after installation? somehow got access to that plug?). Checking that may help diagnose.
  15. Received A2Z NACS to CCS adapter

    I just ordered on the Ford Pass app. After completing there was a message that said make sure automatic updates are turned on so there must be a download needed to connect to Tesla chargers?
  16. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    I got 4 bars now with ACC and no button on the steering wheel. Original settings for 3 bars are figures at top left and top right. Settings after changing all gap 3 to gap 4 in easy view at bottom right and result after turning off truck and on again at mid left. I got a DTC code but cleared it...
  17. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    I found these in the IPMA module and think it may be the following distance (the "gap" between cars) setting for the ACC setting the steering wheel button controls/changes. The problem is I don't have the button so can't test it to see which values change with each setting. I can look to see...
  18. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    @bpcunning I also had 388 (and used 390) in BCM 726-16-01 xxxx x*** xx-- which just means we already had cruise control. The 384 means there is no cruise control based on data in Livinitup's spreadsheet. I do not have any problems.
  19. I need info on home charging

    For those who drive a limited number of miles per day, the 24 amp charger would be sufficient. 24 amps x 240 volts = 5.7 kW. Over an hour of charging that would be 5.7 kWhs into the battery or about 13 miles of driving for each hour plugged in. You can typically get 12 hours of charging...
  20. DIY: Installing ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and LKA (Lane Keep Alert) to 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT

    Success! ACC works like a charm and lane keeping assist is tighter now. The only glitch was having to program APIM and IPMA values before copying IPMA 706-19-01 through 706-19-04 to CCM 764-01-01 through 764-01-04 because the CCM module did not show up prior to programming IPMA. The other thing...
