If there was someone around me who would be kind enough to do so, I’d take them up on the offer in a second (with a case of their choice of beverage* in the frunk for their troubles ?)
* Beverage offer limited by affordability. Rare wine vintages, cases of obscure single malt scotch, etc excluded ? Also, Michelob Ultra, Bud Light, etc. have some self-respect please ?
Heh, I brought ? last time. Pretty much bribing with them again. ??
ohhhh I never thought of donuts. We have Federal Donuts around here. Actually better than beverages. We also have insomnia cookies ?

Great advice, thanks! Never really thought about the car owner "driving" so to speak. I need to get a better LVB power supply before I offer up for anyone else.



What about Yuengling? I hear that's exotic in some parts... lol I'm a few hours drive from you, and I got family in that area. Might have to work something out when I get a better power supply.
If you’re in Fort Washington, you’re much less than “a few hours away”. I’m 10 minutes away from the Valley Forge exit off the Turnpike ?

Donuts are my kryptonite

Oh! Ok, that makes a difference ? a buddy of mine is in the process of moving to the inner harbor in Baltimore. I’m afraid I’ve no idea where Ft. Washington, MD is.

Oh FANCY! that's why you took apart your whole frunk like you were Sandy Munro......
Heh, I had the frunk apart like 6 times to take various measurements, change my mind on something, then take more measurements. Once I got everything put together I decided I wanted to move the access point. Anyone got a part number and a price on that driver’s side beauty panel in the frunk area? ??

here it is
LJ8Z-5802038-C
It costs $91-$130 + shipping depending on the store
Thanks Chris. That’s a lot less than I thought it would be. After I dig myself out of the financial hole my dog’s chemo left me in, I’m gonna get one and move where my battery access point is mounted. Wonder if my FordPass points will work as currency for it. ???

@scoopman & @HuntingPudel - if you guys are flashing this weekend be sure to read this thread!

https://www.macheforum.com/site/thr...e-bluecruise-job1-and-job2.15427/#post-369173

I texted Scoop but he hasn't replied so just an extra layer of warning.
Thanks for the warning. Some of the Job 2-incompatible updates may not even be available for my car since I have a metal roof. We will make sure to not install them anyhow. ??
Thanks for the notice. I will be part of the update party. I also don't have BC so probably not a concern. I want to update only the modules for DC charging (PCM, SOBDMB, SOBDMC, SOBDM, BECM), and possibly GSM.
I have not yet decided if it is worth updating RFA since I don't use PaaK
