  1. Preparing for road trip

    Your middle pinout pic shows AC and DC in the J1772 pins. I believe that is incorrect or an AI hallucination.
  2. High public charger pricing - war on EVs?

    Welcome to gas prices in WA. Just very recently dropped below $4/gal in my area. Was near $4.50 - $5.00 for most of 2025. Diesel is $5.50...
  3. Preparing for road trip

    The Wikipedia for NACS and J1772 may help too. It shows what each pin does. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Charging_Standard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J1772
  4. Connecting IPod Classic to Truck?

    As long as the correct data is attached to the music files, you can use the Ford voice control to ask "Play Styx" or "Play Come Sail Away", etc ... The Sync screen should also have the ability to list by Artist, Album, or Song Name, as long as that data was included with the music files. Some...
  5. Preparing for road trip

    Yup, sounds like you're almost there..... Forget the names for a second. The large pins under the flap on your truck are the DCFC pins. To use a NACS supercharger, the adapter sends DC current to those two large pins. There are no AC pins on the Supercharger adapter (the AC pins are the two...
  6. 12V battery replacement poll

    I chose "other" for the poll. I'll wait for gremlins or Ford app messages to start showing up then replace it. I live it a mellow climate, not too hot and not too cold which batteries seem to "like". I also put over 30,000 miles/year so lots of DC/DC converter charging and lots of time on my...
  7. Stop Safely Now on start

    I'd take it to the dealer now to have them check codes and get the problem logged or fixed if there's any codes that point them towards something. Depending on your mileage, a 2023 should still be under warranty. Even if they can't find anything, if you get the complaint "logged" now and it...
  8. Preparing for road trip

    I was confused on the adapters until it was explained to me on the Mach-e forum. Tesla accomplishes AC charging and DC charging through the same pins, so NACS accomplishes everything with just 5 pins. Tesla/NACS: -The two large pins carry AC or DC -2 smaller pins are communication pins -final...
  9. Comma AI self driver assistant

    My early version from the first batch of couplers was splitting like @itsjmod's when I received it. I wrapped a zip tie around it and it's been fine. Never thought anything else about it until this post. Possibly a manufacturing issue?
  10. Annual Energy Usage - What Was Yours Last Year?

    Every time you post your rate of $0.373/kWh I throw up a little in my mouth 🤢.
  11. Annual Energy Usage - What Was Yours Last Year?

    🤣 If your posts are an example of not doing a good job at home, I'd hate to see what your good record-keeping at work looks like.
  12. Buying a Floor Jack

    I got this one a few years ago from Harbor Freight to work on my old F350 and I just used it to rotate my tires on the Lightning using the @TaxmanHog method. Works perfectly.
  13. Annual Energy Usage - What Was Yours Last Year?

    You got me curious.... 13,658 kWh home charging in 2025 which is easily obtainable from my Emporia app. Includes any climate and preconditioning use and is the amount of electricity delivered to the truck. Additional unknown amount of DCFC and travel level 1 and 2 charging, both of which are...
  14. Weird Charging Issue -- Possibly after module replacement

    Roger that. With the behavior you described in the OP, I would bring it back to the dealer and replicate the issue with them before leaving. Have the dealer check for codes and provide an explanation of everything they did to fix the problem. Post the redacted invoice here that shows all of the...
  15. Weird Charging Issue -- Possibly after module replacement

    So, I've never heard about the current "dropping off" at 80% unless you are using a DCFC. Level 2 charging with my Emporia 48 amp at home is 48 amp up to 98 or 99%, then it slows down as the cell balancing takes place. DCFC slows at 80%, and slows again at 90%. Just making sure I'm on the same...
  16. High public charger pricing - war on EVs?

    Wally World is mostly EA but they sometimes have other brands. Wally also announced earlier this year (2025) that they are installing their own brand chargers at many more Wally Worlds.
  17. Connecting IPod Classic to Truck?

    I think they both support a drive if it's in the proper format. Maybe the next version of the Lightning will have fast charging 🤣
  18. Connecting IPod Classic to Truck?

    I just remembered that the thumb drive/disk that plugs in to the USB's under the screen in the center cubby need to be formatted in exFAT IIRC (check the manual for specs, it's either FAT or exFAT). I believe even if you can do "disk mode" on your iPod, Apple uses HFS or something like that, so...
  19. 2nd Choice

    When I bought my Mach-e, Tesla dropped their price 2 weeks later, then Ford followed suit and dropped the Mach-e price by over $10,000 :headbang: I purchased my Lightning on the second to last day of the month. On the 1st of the next month, Ford did the power promise promo. Lost out on getting...
