I got my car back at the end of Tuesday, after 72 days in the shop, which started as a bad fluid pump and turned into a front drive unit replacement because the pump didn’t work and caused metal shavings to develop in the front drive unit. I drove about 150-200 miles today with 80MPH speeds on the interstate between OKC and Seminole, OK and used DCFC early this afternoon from 2pm to 3pm. After I finished DCFC, we ran several short errands in a short area of OKC and ended the day with an hour drive to back to my mom’s house in Seminole.
At 7:15pm, I backed into the garage, plugged in the Ford mobile charger, and got an error that there was a problem charging. I unplugged the charger and tried again but it was a no go. Next, I connected my Veepeak OBD2 adapter and pulled the codes below. I can’t get the car to start so I can’t drive. It displays Stop Safely Now. This has the recall software, or at least it did before the front drive unit was replaced. The front drive unit was replaced this past week and I assume the current module versions are up to date.
Would it do any good to try and clear the DTCs and drive it back to OKC, an hour away? Or should I tow it?
And I guess I’ll go look at the HVBJB mega thread and follow those steps. I still have a case open for the issue for the past 72 days. Do I use that one or start a new one?
