OTA Software Update 10.3.0 - Powertrain, Battery, Parking Brake

[Gimme_my_MME]

I’ve removed phone as key and app from phone and reinstalled it. Do not resolve anything!!

Removing those is not what it said to do. It said to remove the vehicle from your FordPass app/account.

Ford Software Development does it again!! Issues an update that resets/breaks existing setup!

How difficult is it to save the current config, implement the update and then reassign the save config (modified if/as needed).

Here’s a hint, if you want swap two pieces of information, you need a third entity to store one of the items you’re swapping!!!
This is computer science 101!!

10.3.0 got installed last night and now I can’t update charging locations or % limits other than my using one time limit in truck. If I don’t do this truck always charges to 100%.

Seriously frustrating.

As a result of your feedback, you have helped us discover an impact to Charge Settings being erased, including charge preferences and pre-saved locations. While we work to solve this via a software update, here is what you can do on your end:



1. Delete your vehicle from the FordPass app (This will remove your Phone-as-key – have your fob close by!)

2. Add your vehicle back to the FordPass app

3. Follow the Ford authorization / activation instructions

4. Re-apply your charge settings and any other connectivity feature settings that were lost. This worked for me.

I’ve read that the 2025’s have a faster DC charging time. Hopefully this update brings our trucks in line with the 2025’s DC charging.

I saw another member in the BC1.4 thread say they received this. Hopefully its fixed and rolling out soon. I would love to compare DCFC rates with this update. And for those just whining about the additional steps that come with this, get over it. Follow the steps and be done with it.

Yep this fixed it, guess I too should have paid more attention and read the prior posts! Thanks guys appreciate the help.

@Ford Motor Company when will you update our navigation to be able to route to Tesla chargers. We all have adapters at this point.

Curious what year is your Lightning, and when did you buy it?
Have you received any OTA's !!!?

Mine is a 2023 and I received the 10.3 update recently purchased in march of 24

OK, that's a great sign, that updates are going to your truck, so if I understand your question, it's more about the native Ford navigation app having the Tesla sites, long time promised, who knows when that will happen, for now we're all using either Google, Apple or third party apps for locating Tesla stations, it's certainly a hodge-podge patch work at the moment.

Which makes preconditioning for tesla chargers impossible* at this point, correct?

*challenging; requiring routing to another dcfc via the native navigation while using your phone to navigate to the tesla charger. That's the only way I'm aware of, at this point.

500 amps, ok. The level of damage to the battery and the fact that this won’t even be offered (like at a fast charger) are the major issues. I mean it’s cool and would really reduce charging times but the 500 amp service would make charging very expensive in this current economic climate.

Current has no impact on cost. A kilowatt-hour is the same whether it is delivered at 5 amps or 500 amps.

Oh absolutely. Maybe I needed to clarify what I was saying. Talking about how the costs associated with 500 service, upgraded fast charging, etc. it will make it worse than electrify America which is 50-60 cents a kWh on the low end. Additionally, if the truck was made for that input why not just start there?

Technology can be adapted but rarely if ever can it be upgraded without providing the hardware to support the software changes. Before you say so, I’m not bitter or negative about anything with electric vehicles, but this is white noise. Ford needs to do better in aspects that matter, like whatever the abbreviation for the home power is (not the charger but the inverter), or working on expansion packs for the batteries or fast charging capacitors that can be swapped out or carried on long trips, or just maybe a range extender. Like get one out soon, because it’s great to have fast charging but not if you are designing your life around public charging that can be, many times, less than reliable.

Lastly, I’m really on an electrify America bashing session. Not because I think the chargers are terrible, because they usually are the fastest but because of the cost. The other part is that electrify America was supposed to have it setup for 500a anyway, which would go for 10 min then drop off. I don’t know of any vehicles charging with that level of current, so I guess we can see.

If you have an Android phone, google maps in android auto allows preconditioning.
