It's not difficult to install/replace, but unless you're comfortable working around a distribution panel / sub-panel I would recommend an electrician to actually perform the work. You have to take the dead front off the panel which exposes all of the high voltage within the panel including live...

I installed this unit, FYI https://www.homedepot.com/pep/Eaton-Whole-House-Surge-Protector-CHSPT2ULTRA-1/204761136

If you're in a pinch with remaining range before getting this fixed, you should also try a DC fast charge since it charges differently than L1/L2 charging which uses the car's onboard rectifier to charge the battery whereas that is off-board for DC fast charging. If it was the onboard rectifier...

Agree, I've been using PAAK exclusively since I got the Mach E almost 3 years ago. In the early days, it would generally work after a few attempts but now it works solidly about 98% of the time, and when it doesn't work, you can use the backup password/door keycode to start it. Even when it...

This happened to me a few times last week when I plug in at work and had happened on occasion in the past. That charger has also caused the faults you mentioned, but they've always cleared without issue. I don't recall hearing that or having any issues when charging at home. Nothing enough to...

I've had two, one for my MME for 3 years without issue and a one year old second one for a Pacifica PHEV also without issue, so they're from different lots. I have them both set to 32 A. There was a post somewhere about an issue some units had if set to the max 40 A value. Don't know if that...

It was hinted at in previous posts, but just to be clear, the leads in the front bumper are only there to open the frunk in the event the 12 V battery is dead. It does not connect to the 12 V battery directly, so you cannot use those leads to "jump" the car. If your battery is dead, the...

Only change I would recommend would be to say "...were disabled by Ford..." to make it clear it isn't something you have control over.

Our work installed a two plug Zevtron charger back in 2020 that's mostly been good. You manage payment/activation through a web portal and there's also a QR code on each plug that will directly link to the site if desired. https://zevtron.com/

You can open the frunk if your 12 V battery is dead using just AA batteries (you need 8 in series to get to 12 V). Those cables in the front bumper only serve to open the frunk so you have access to the battery which can then be treated like any 12 V car battery. Once you "start" the car and...

High Voltage Battery Junction Box... The thing that distributes the high voltage battery power

You should be able to use any metal part of the car to complete the circuit as it should all be grounded. https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/battery-for-frunk-release-to-store-in-bumper.4443/post-132773

Has that appeared to address your issue? Or has the fault reoccurred since?

Also looks like the same thing for this person. With a higher incidence of these issues recently, perhaps it was an issue introduced in a recent software update? https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/charge-fault.26299/

That TSB is for DC fast charging, not L2 home charging. https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/tsb-22-2496-battery-not-charging-with-level-3-charger.24432/ I've also started having this fault at the charger at my work which has been fine charging my car since July 2021. It's very annoying...
