Mine bulged, and significantly, only on the two sides, looking from the front as the battery sits on its shelf.

Mine bulged this Fall and I replaced it.

...or another fob moving within a dozen feet, maybe inside the house.

Sorry to hear about corroded contacts inside the traction battery case. Not completely surprised about the failed wheel bearing... with the high mileage of Your truck some mechanical wear-out things will eventually happen. My mileage is similar to Your truck's mileage at 92+ thousand miles...

Yes thank you. I finally checked... my BMS has the -BA tail designator, so it's the replaced version.

I seem to remember just such a thread on the Mach E Forum. Unfortunately, the dealership back shop, service bay and service tech advisor workforce is known for, umm, "moving on". So in my experience, a great EV-oriented dealership might look very different 18 months+ later.

Hey Jon, I see we happen to have the same year and model of the Lightning :) Here's my write-up of when I swapped out the decent OEM horns for more powerful high-pitch and low-pitch aftermarket horns a good while back...

There are plenty of manual-folding Lightning mirrors and F150 14th gen manual folding mirrors on EBay. Way cheaper than at the dealership. The mirror disassembles like a big Lego set. All the mirror trim is disassemblable (is this a word? haha) with care and basic tools, and...

I use Amsoil MP HD Heavy Duty Metal Protector. It took me four cans to coat all the nooks and crannies on the underside of my truck, two winters ago. There's an older thread on the Gen 14 F150 forum that had a months-long outdoor comparison runoff between Amsoil, Fluid Film and some other...

I use acorn nuts for this. Had them laying around, and they work very well as "topper nuts".

I did check with the dealer back then... I honestly can't remember but I think they might have replaced it.

FYI for others' use: when after right the update I reconnected my ancillary electric stuff like the dash cam, the rat flashing motion deterrent and the aftermarket 12V battery Bluetooth monitor dongle, I saw that the 12V battery showed a 49% state of charge. This despite it being on the Clore...

So after seven days and nine (9) tries to install this OTA update, I finally succeeded just now. Many tries with many sequence variants to get the 12V battery up to top charge and for it to stay there... using the Clore charging & supply functions, and the 120V overnight Level 1 charging, and...

IMHO trailer brakes are like Winter aka "Snow" tires... they aren't needed until they suddenly and unpredictably are needed. The 5% or so of unpredictable situations when it makes a difference, are akin to car insurance in my book.

I strongly recommend the Eibach shocks. I have had them on for months now and couldn't be happier. FYI - I reused the OEM springs and set the Eibachs at the OEM Lightning height (i.e. the lowest shock circlip setting all around). Also - my Ford OEM shocks were all worn out, front and back...

Bruce, FYI I actually prefer the rows of hard physical buttons. It's one of the several reasons I chose my XLT 312A vice a higher trim Lightning. On my previous Ford Fusion Energi some years ago, the infotainment screen failed and all of a sudden I was out of options to adjust heating, air...

Not when I had to trade my Mach E... the Flash wasn't born yet.

I had BlueCruise (up to 1.2 eventually) on my 2022 Mach E. I don't have it on my XLT 312A, by my choice because after living through cold Winters with the Mach E's panoramic glass roof, I refused to buy another EV with a glass roof, and all Lightnings with solid roofs also lacked BlueCruise...

Just switch the painted caps with your old caps. Three Torx screws under the mirror glass, and You're done.

FYI for the discussion in this thread about updates to the BCM, which now cannot be done DIY: I have been successful nudging my local dealer service techs (in a good dealership BTW) to update the BCM for me when I knew it had updates, and I then used this argument "pls help me as only a...
