Got the update last night and the car charged to 100% instead of the lower setting for my home charger. I will have to check if I lost my charging locations as mentioned above.

I found the place to turn off the motion sensor warning but still haven't found the liftgate control. I thought I looked at every screen but must be missing something.

Is that in the menus or something you do with Forscan?

We hadn't found the new location so thanks for letting us know. The wife said the menus changed again today. Maybe it is now hidden somewhere else. I think I am going to have to install the hard wired push button for the liftgate.

Initially we weren't interested in the MME because it seemed to be more performance oriented than we wanted. The Ionic 5 was more what we wanted until Hyundai decided they needed large market adjustments to the price. Ford was happy to sell us an MME at MSRP and the size and features met our...

I have done testing on the Ford EVSE. You can plug the 120V adapter into 240 volts and the car will charge at 12 amps. That gets you twice as fast charging as at 120 volts.

I repeated my tests on the Ford EVSE with the same results as I got earlier. The charging current limit set by the EVSE only depends on which plug adapter is connected to the unit. Here are some things I checked: 1. The current is not changed by Line-to-Neutral voltage or Line-to-Line...

I verified that on my MME. Actually it would not go above 10.9 amps when I set it for 12 amps or higher. It's time to sell the old generator and get one with a 240VAC output.

I was not aware that the car would limit the charging current to 12 amps on 120VAC power. If that is true, then the original question is answered: There is no way to charge the car faster than 12A with a 120VAC generator. I have the ability to try charging my MME at more than 12 amps on...

I have a lab AC supply that is adjustable from 0VAC to 300VAC. If I remember correctly, the 240V plug has a neutral pin but it isn't connected to anything. The two hot legs on the 240V plug go to the same connections as Line and Neutral on the 120V plug.

No. My EVSE is working correctly and the plugs were fully inserted. I checked both plugs at 120VAC and 240VAC input voltage. The control pulse duty cycle stayed at the 12 amp limit for both voltages with the 120V plug and at the 32 amp limit for the 240V plug. That's not what I expected...

Have you tested the Ford EVSE? I did testing at 120VAC and 240VAC. The pulse width that sets the maximum current changed with the plug but did not change for the two different voltages. My testing showed that applying 240VAC to the 120V plug resulted in charging at 12 Amps.

If you use the 240V, 32A, plug on the EVSE that comes with the MME, the car will try to charge at 32A even if the voltage is only 120V. That doesn't help you since 32A would overload your 3500W generator. I don't know how the EVSE knows which plug is attached. The extra pin is for a...

I think we would still go for the MME. My wife really likes the Rivan RS1 but it's nearly twice the price. I should have bought the larger battery. I expected the small battery MME to have similar range to my Kia Niro EV but it is not near that level of efficiency.

For the two RWD failures I saw, one lacks data and the other has a code for a battery problem rather than HVBJB. They might have had the HVBJB replaced because Ford said to do it if the battery was removed for other repairs.

From what I have seen, the motor currents in the RWD cars are within the ratings of the contactors on the HVBJB. One might speculate that the HVBJB was designed for a RWD only application and then someone decided the MME needed to be AWD with dual motors.

All three Ford hybrids we have owned had 120VAC, 150W, outlets. It seems like the MME should have one but that probably depends more on what's on the competition. I don't think Tesla, Chevy, or VW have 120V outlets.

When we bought a C-Max in 2013, it was ranked the most unreliable car on the market. It was totally reliable for our time of ownership and we got more than 1/3 of the original price when trading for the MME.

I don't see how we could be missing the hardware unless you are thinking about an onboard high power inverter. What I am referring to is an external high power inverter that operates from the high voltage battery. The MME can connect the battery to the CCS for DC fast charging. It just needs...
