  1. Looking at Lightning Up My Driveway

    Right... my memory might have slipped here, it's been 15 months now since my wire upgrade. The larger point is that 80 amp-capable wire thickness is "huuuge" and so thick that it's hard to work with ( I watched the electricians as they wrangled my upgraded wire run), and it needs to be...
  2. Looking at Lightning Up My Driveway

    I've done the same path... from a 2022 Mach E Premium Tech Trim to a 2023 Lightning XLT 312A. In Your search please be aware that the 2022 and 2023 Extended Range traction battery models came with a free Ford 80-amp FCSP charging box for Your house, because in 2022 and 2023 these ER models had...
  3. Built-in Fog Light Switch (Front/Rear) Installed

    OP, thank You for this ongoing research. Having had a US-spec BMW, a Ford Fusion and a Ford Mach E with factory-installed or self-installed OEM rear fog lights, I thoroughly appreciate having them when it counts. NOTE for Your sleuthing: when I had installed a Ford OEM rear fog light onto my...
  4. Pennsylvania 2023 Lariat passenger side mirror, damaged. All works.

    I will PM You. From what I can see, the mirror was the self-darkening mirror, yes?
  5. Brake maintenance mode

    For the OP: based on my experience with the now-sold Mach E Mustang, there is a technical procedure in FDRS (the Ford software for technicians at dealerships and at independent mechanic shops) for resetting the appropriate software after successful brake bleeding on basic brake component...
  6. Reasons not to buy a Lightning?

    +1. ...with a Lightning at just over 94 thousand miles. And I also am a former Mach E Premium Tech Package owner.
  7. SYNC-25.2.1.6.5.2 - SiriusXM Service Update

    I got this update for SiriusXM overnight. Happy to get it as I use Sirius every day.
  8. Nema 10-30R on Sub-panel for charging?

    FYI - pls note "rated for 30 amps". The Ford OEM cord-with-brick EVSE pulls up to 32 amps during steady charging, which exceeds this adapter's and the NEMA receptacle's rating. There are solid adapters like this without the cord in between their business ends. I have one, and others for other...
  9. Ford LIES!

    The 12V battery a bit larger. It is about the size of a four-pack of 16-ounce Coke cans. :wink: I actually had something nearly identical happen last month, and I have over 90 thousand miles on my Lightning and know it pretty well. The truck refused to start when running shopping errands one...
  10. Hankook iON HT tires on Pro -- my review / experience

    Interestingly, my all-wheel alignment at about 55 thousand miles also showed the only wheel out-of-spec to be the rear passenger wheel. In fact, the truck rides noticeably better since that all-wheel alignment.
  11. Ford CEO Jim Farley Totally Regrets Ford F150 Lightning Pickup

    Charlie Munro could have told them that. Matter of fact... he did! when the Ford EV execs visited Munro Associates and talked about these very subjects in 2024.
  12. 12 volt battery bulging!

    Mine bulged, and significantly, only on the two sides, looking from the front as the battery sits on its shelf.
  13. 12 volt battery bulging!

    Mine bulged this Fall and I replaced it.
  14. Headlights came on when not home

    ...or another fob moving within a dozen feet, maybe inside the house.
  15. 156,000 kilometres - in shop 3 weeks

    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...
  16. Software Update PT-25.13.12 : Charge Port Functionality & Cold Weather Performance

    Yes thank you. I finally checked... my BMS has the -BA tail designator, so it's the replaced version.
  17. 25C69 Recall - Ford Recalls 2022-2026 F-150 Lightning Over Rollaway Risk

    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.
  18. moto horn

    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...
  19. Anyone replaced passenger side view mirror with 360° camera and side warning system?

    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...
  20. Best Product to stop, or at least slow, the rust ?

    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...
