[Mach-Lee]

Do you know which update it was that nerfed the power meter?

Powertrain updates.

Powertrain updates.

Bummer. Enabling the power meter was next on my FORScan to-do list.

AFAIK, my Mach-E received the latest powertrain update on 9/26. Guess no functional power meter for this guy.

@Mike G reported new powertrain updates the end of Sept. Are the new ones still causing the Power Meter not to work properly?

I'm all caught up with FDRS updates, including the powertrain/ABS ones from last weekened. I still have the power meter, and it shows power/regen when I'm driving. Is it possible I have a different Forscan config?

Nice!! Great sign they fixed it!

I just did this on my 2023 CR1, but my entire right side is always fully "grey-barred". Does anyone know why this is?

Did you disable the power meter before doing your FDRS updates? I believe that in the powertrain update thread someone suggested that. ??

No Forscan changes before or after the update.
I even recorded this last FDRS update for giggles (Oct 3rd).

How did you enable the power meter - by changing values in As-Built or turning it on in the non As-Built section?

Admittedly, I'm new to FORScan and don't know if there's a difference in the method of making changes with FORScan, but maybe someone more experienced can chime in.

Maybe because you’re RWD?

FWIW this mod seems to be broken with latest round of updates - it now shows jail bars on the right side of the meter. I am only visiting this thread again to remind myself how to disable the power meter.



I don't believe anybody has figured out how to fix this issue.

This happened to my CArt1 back in August/September when I went in for the 1 pedal drive fault TSB.

Just enabled the power meter in my '23 Premium and it seems to be working just fine.

Admittedly, I haven't had the chance to drive with it yet, but I didn't see any gray bars. I'll update if anything changes.

It would be the equivalent of a tachometer. I’d want it so long as we don’t get any grey bars. If we would, I’d rather not see it!

A week or so after I got my 24 premium I was curious what RPM the motors turned at speed. First Google answer was “About 2000 rpm at 60 mph”. Second was about 6100 rpm (I didn’t memorize the exact value) at the same speed and a “Redline” of 13,000 and change. Made me feel like I was driving in a F1 car but quieter.
