Recently installed FCSP and I am only getting a charge of 10.2 KW. Do I need to adjust something manually to get a faster rate? Thank you.

@Ford Motor Company should have considered keeping it in with the Platinum package since it wouldn’t qualify and help differentiate it more from the Lariat trim.Follow these steps:
1) Take truck back to dealership.
2) Trade it in for a 2022 or 2023.
3) Go home and plug in.
The 2024s have a single charger onboard, not a dual charger. Max AC rate is 48amps, which is 11.5kW, or 10.7 or so to the truck. 10.2 implies you're a bit below 240v.
DC fast charging is not affected.
There's nothing wrong with it. What's wrong is misleading sales information and illinformed salesmen leading people to believe they will be getting 80 amp charging.What’s wrong with 48A charging?
Another stellar job from the sales team.That is interesting. I'm very surprised they don't let you know that in the ads for the FCSP. Frustrating...
It seems to me that it would make more sense to have it in the Pro series or XLT series since these are more likely to be used in a commercial environment and require faster charging to get through busy days. I have a '23 and occasionally dial up to 48 amps to top up overnight after a weekend trip but I rarely use more than 32 amps on a daily basis. I've only used 80 amps once at a hotel destination charger with a decent EVSE.@Ford Motor Company should have considered keeping it in with the Platinum package since it wouldn’t qualify and help differentiate it more from the Lariat trim.
Almost like when you fudge the numbers and make invoice over MSRP and cloud the incentive structure the salespeople are less inclined to know the product thoroughly and sell them aggressively.Another stellar job from the sales team.
I would generally agree but for most businesses the around 10 hours at 48 amps works as the truck is out of service for a shift. For the companies that are running three shifts, even 20kW is not enough and they would likely need to DCFC unless they are having it sit out.It seems to me that it would make more sense to have it in the Pro series or XLT series since these are more likely to be used in a commercial environment and require faster charging to get through busy days.

In any case, the 2nd onboard charger would be nice as an option on any trim level for those who need it.
The Pro does have the option for dual on-board chargers for fleet orders.Sadly there is little use case for the need in general over fast charging, but yes the pro should have an option for fleet orders.

EdRudy,What’s wrong with 48A charging? I’ve had my 2022 ER set to 48A since purchase. More than enough to top off over night. Only issue I ever had was lugs at breaker loosened up over time and cause arching. Replaced breaker, tightened lugs to spec, all good.
