Power Gauge Below 100

[Nemo60]

Plugged my truck in at work for the day this morning. As I was getting out, the truck chimed in for an update that it was going to install. At the end of the day, I unplug the truck at about 70% and start my drive home and the power gauge shows 64%. Outside temperature was 60F and the battery temp shows solid in the middle. Was wondering if this has happened to anyone?

Yes, since you mention after an update there have been reports of updates temporarily disabling one of the motors, resulting in the half-ish or so power meter you see here. As long as the truck returns to normal after turning it off there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Give it 24 hours (over night actually) it should get back to normal, BTW, which update was it?

We have a bunch of updates rolling out now, enjoy reading the threads here

It was 6.5.0, which this seems to be a recurring issue in the threads you listed. Appreciate the help! Will keep you updated if it doesnt resolve itself over night.

FYI, Mine took 3 or 4 days after the update to go back to 100 from 95%. This is when it was colder out and the batteries were not at running temp, so I thought that is what the update showed now. ??

I had this happen as well multiple times in November. I took it in to the dealer and after they applied the High Voltage contactor recall firmware update, it stopped. Might be a coincidence, might not. Ford Service installed a monitoring token and called me to take it in this week again. They performed another multi-point battery inspection and applied another update. Overall, for me it seemed to be related to charging; it appeared immediately after charging; I could power the truck down all the way, then restart, and the gauge went back up to 100%. There is someone from Ford service here on the forum (can't remember who, try searching). Reach out and they will take care of you.
