I've had this warning. If it's the dead 12v battery, connecting a battery booster should allow you to initialize the system and start the car, as well as shift out of park. If the battery is old, the problem will recur every time you stop and start the car after letting it sit since the 12v...

HVBJB contactor. 7 hours of work. Courtesy car, covered by EV warranty. If it weren't for the dealer's excellent service, this car would have been a royal PITA

No worries man. I'm not driving it until tomorrow. Since my 12v is fine I can start the main display, activate it in neutral tow and push it one mile to the dealer if I have to.

This is weird. I went to the dealership to check the car last night around 10pm and retrieve something in the trunk. I just gave it a start and it was fine, after spening nearly 36 hours in sub -15 weather. This is definitely not a 12v battery issue. I agree it might be the contactor that...

So this is specifically the issue covered by the 22s41 letter. That should cover up to 8 years right? I'm out of the basic warranty. I have one of the earliest Mach Es that rolled off the line.

This sounds suspiciously like my issue. Same problem after having the 12v battery changed 2 weeks ago. This time boost did not revive the car. Fortunate I had enough juice to put the car into tow mode. Will find out Monday I guess what the issue is...

Ahhh sh*t

Which contactor? I had the parking brake issue fixed back before Christmas.

I have 2021 select AWD and this morning after being left out overnight in -15c I could not get it out of park. The display and system started fine but I got the "please stop safely" message, and wouldn't come out of park. Also every system (AWD, collisions, traction) gave A warning. Had the...

Thanks. Gonna hardwire a grizzl e 48A. Set it to max that my wiring can take. Looks like I can get 600$ incentive which covers the cost of the unit. Labor should be minimal since the wiring to the garage is already done. EVSE was well reviewed in that guy Tom's site. In don't like how the...

Isnt the "universal" part just a J1772 adapter that clips o the NACS? Does the Emporia go down to 32Amps in the hardwired model? Web site suggests 40A is minimum and my current unit is 32A I don't have the wiring for more.

So I need to replace the charger i my indoor garage after 8+ years. The NEMA 6-50 outlet melted and took the plug with it. The blades on the plug were severely corroded which is odd since I never plug/unplug the EVSE. My guess is indoor humidity in the garage gets pretty bad. My choices are...

Can this feature be disabled? I have the parking brake malfunction problem and I don't want it to auto engage and get stuck before I have it fixed.

Is the part covered under the 8 year electric drive warranty?

My use case is similar to yours. A standard range AWD is what I have and it's perfect for urban commuting. The only times I wish I had the big battery is one long road trips, but that's about twice a year. As for charger speed, yes the Koreans are theoretically faster. But I found I was mostly...

Same thing. Early 2021 build. Received the letter last week. Got the OTA last night. Blue cruise started working today. Hope the 1 year free starts from now.

What's happening with Petro Can and their cyber hack that took down their payment system? I'm driving back 1000km this weekend and I usually rely on Petro Can EV chargers and I do NOT want to be left high and dry.

Interesting. I just noticed the new GOM algorithm on a road trip from Montreal to New Brunswick (1000km) I noticed the gom was somewhat pessimistic and then adjusted as we got closer to destination. The side effect is that the nav tends to schedule more charge stops than strictly needed. It...

This is interesting. I'm getting the Drive Mode not available message in Whisper mode and being booted back to Engage. And it's freezing cold now so not an overheating issue. This started after a recent Ford power Up and also started giving me key not found messages. This is definitely a...

Called Ford. They say there is an open Blue cruise recall on my car. This is surprising since I took the car in this October and they had all the updates and recalls done.
