    2023 Startup Chimes - Faster than 2021 - Fault?

    Yes, it's so annoying! I thought it had some stored DTCs or something based upon how many beeps and the speed. I get 8 fast chimes without seatbelt buckled and I think 2 if the seatbelt is buckled. Turning off the seatbelt chime via instructions in the manual doesn't change the startup sounds...

    Tips for stain removal on light space gray seats

    Had this same issue, ended up trading for a GT PE with black seats. I noticed some dye transfer on the stitching around 7k miles and attempted to clean it with numerous cleaners to no avail. Ordered the Ford seat covers (which I didn't care for) and then debated briefly trying to swap the seats...

    DIY How To: Add Hands-free liftgate back to 2022 Mach-E

    After reinstalling Windows Forscan wasn't connecting to the vehicle at all. I updated the firmware still no luck, then about to give up I tried a different USB C to USB A dongle and it worked. Originally I was using the Apple USB C Digital AV Adapter, once I swapped to the Anker USB adapter it...

    Preconditioning when on a utility off peak charging program

    All good points here, I think we will skip preconditioning next winter unless going on a roadtrip where range matters.

    DIY How To: Add Hands-free liftgate back to 2022 Mach-E

    Tried that, also tried removing Forscan and reinstalling with current as well as previous versions. Something seems to get cached and I can't figure out where to manually clean up so I'll try a wipe/reinstall of Windows next. Guessing trying the mongoose first messed up something and it's not...

    DIY How To: Add Hands-free liftgate back to 2022 Mach-E

    I was using the Mongoose but also tried the OBDLink EX. It seems to be not picking up one of the buses like you mentioned. APIM and IPC are missing (and possibly others). I did try the same adapter on my 21' F150 and it found both the IPC and APIM in forscan. It shows CANFD and HSCAN as the only...

    Preconditioning when on a utility off peak charging program

    One meter, but the charger they provide has a cell modem in it that feeds usage and charge data back to them. It's a Clipper Creek EVSE that ZEF Energy modifies to add cellular smart capability (https://www.zefenergy.com/store/115kw-zefnet-singlehead-wallmount-y29hk). I believe they just...

    Preconditioning when on a utility off peak charging program

    I’ll try using both again, could have just been a coincidence. Just double checked, my EVSE is actually 60amp which maxes out what the car can pull when L2 charging.

    Preconditioning when on a utility off peak charging program

    Our utility recently changed to a flat rate charging program between 9pm-5am, with increased on peak rates for other hours. We previously used preconditioning for winter driving for 7am (located in WI) however that energy usage now falls into on peak rates (.40 kWh). We got a surprise on our...

    DIY How To: Add Hands-free liftgate back to 2022 Mach-E

    Anyone having issues getting the APIM to show up in forscan? 22 GT PE built in Feb. APIM shows up in FDRS and I tried rebooting it via FDRS also.

    Anyone using Alexa in their Mach-E?

    The Alexa logo is easy to remove, you need to link it to your Amazon account (go through setup) then immediately sign out. The logo will disappear and you are signed out. Probably a crummy data mining move but at least the logo is gone.

    FordPass keeps crashing - iOS

    Good to know on the force restart, will try that if it happens again. I deleted the app and reinstalled per the Ford Guide rep's instructions. The app loads now, but I have to setup PAAK again.

    FordPass keeps crashing - iOS

    PAAK worked fine at 6:45AM this morning then randomly I couldn't open the car door around 7:30, and had to use my backup code. Now the app sits at the Ford logo then crashes every time.

    EVSE Cycling when charging delayed

    Just wanted to provide an update to anyone else who may see this in the future. The problem hasn't happened lately, I think it must have been related to the Ford Pass outage that week. I'm guessing the car does a ping to the Ford servers to assess preferred charging times and was unable to...

    EVSE Cycling when charging delayed

    It's actually closer to every 10 seconds. I did go into the car start accessory power to confirm it was showing that it was going to start charging at 10pm. After I did that the EVSE stayed lit with charging and did not cycle anymore. The charging circle eventually went dark confirming it wasn't...

    EVSE Cycling when charging delayed

    We just got our Mach E last week and have a Clipper Creek HCS-60 Level 2 EVSE. When we plug the vehicle in before 10PM when it's set to charge, the relay on the Clipper Creek cycles every 30 seconds to a minute and shows charging for a short period of time, then goes back off. As far as I can...
