Redtiger F17 Elite Dash Cam (First Impressions & Early Use)
This is my first dash cam, and my initial impressions are excellent. The packaging feels premium and the cameras are well protected.
I had the system running within minutes. At first I did a temporary DIY setup just to learn the menus...
I connect with Torque and read the pid on the 12 volt battery and I get the voltage, state of charge and DAYS. My car just turned 3 years, 1090ish days, but the reading from the car says 627 days. Do we know what that means and what relevance does it have to replacement?
I got the 12v...
I purchased an extended Ford warrantee shortly after purchasing the car. 22 premium ex. And it showed up in my account at ford.com. with the extended date. Today I looked and I can't find it. If you know where to look Thanks if not were in the same boat. The my account at ford.com has...
FordPass app on Android always shows a 1 on the app, I think saying there is a message.
There are no messages, there are no alerts but the number 1 persists. It will go higher like after a DCFC and billing. It will show 2,3,4 etc but when I clear everything out It still shows 1.
Not a biggy...
There have been several times I felt the lane centering was not centered and I would steer against the lane centering. As I did this the wheel would push back wanting to go farther right. The question is does this "fighting" with lane centering cause added wear to the steering mechanism both...
Thinking I'd like to occasionally charge the 12v battery or maybe even desulphonate the battery, I cut the holes found plugs and then it did not charge.
I have a battery minder trickle charger/maintainer.
The 12 volt was at 12.57 and 54%
I had an odbii attached and running torque on my android...
I tried to monitor my HVB temp as it Pre-conditioned headed toward a DCFC. Didn't work. Below are the data readings.

Using odbii and Torque

Drove to breakfast 6 miles and parked outside

This is just the second time I've used the Ford charger. First time in my garage 2+ years ago just to see that it worked at 110. Was only on for an hour. And now. We're at a ski resort and the only convenient charging is 110 at the rental house. The plug is outside in the weather and its...
Charged at home last night to 80%. It was done about 11pm. I drove to Sams club this afternoon. I unplugged the car backed out of the garage. The dash said it was at 79%. It's only 1% but where did it go? Drove to Sam's club 3.7 miles. As I parked the car it said 81%. We live in flat...
Had a new experience today. Thankfully just a minor one.
I've used my Tesla Tap Mini (rated 60amp) at this location many times-25 to 50 with no issues. Until today.
Nothing alerted me to an issue as I put the Mini on the Tesla head.
Drove up and started charging as normal. When it got...
So I just got the tesla adapter and have been waiting to try it out. I got to do that tonight.
It worked as expected.
One of the tesla chargers was at the end of the line and on the side of the car so no problem with a short cord issue. easy to connect and easy to disconnect.
The tesla app...
I've only had one bad, really bad DC fast charging. See below.
But not anything like these photos. I was at Emporia Virginia and as I was pulling up I couldn't help but wonder what was behind the chargers.
Anyone know the story on this one.???
perience with DC fast charging.
Does your Frunk open with the #7?
Have you seen this?
I accidentally added the #7 after I entered my code to unlock the Mach e and i heard the latch sound for the Frunk twice and sure enough the Frunk was opened. I have duplicated this several times.
I tried all the other numbers to see if I...
Just because I'm interested and my kids say I'm a geek I of course connected an ODBII connector and my torque app.
I wanted to see what the battery temperature was and how it changed with the outside temperatures.
These are some random readings. I show a low of 41 F and a high of 78.8.
Anyone...
First long distance trip – perfect – Blue Oval hands free is excellent – Fast Charging is better than expected until it wasn’t, and Covid sucks.
My wife and I had previously decided we would never, NEVER, drive from Virginia Beach to Grosse Pointe, MI (Detroit) again. We did it driving straight...
I'm the technical one and ok maybe a geek and I am definitely the car person in our relationship. She loves the car but is not technical. She did feel overwhelmed with all the options the Mach e presents.
She's out on a real estate call and at the end of the business showed the car to one of...
I think the Mach e has a noise deadening windshield. I think I read it somewhere and now I can't find it.
I think if you look at the windshield on the bottom of the passengers side it says it is silent or quiet shield.
I don't get me MME until sept so I can't just go look.
Can someone with a...
What should I check for when I pickup the MME at the dealer. Still 4 weeks away.
I've read through a lot of the suggestions and issues in the forum and made two lists. One at the dealer and one at home.
I'm looking for any suggestions on what I've missed or a nuance I don't know about the car...
I'm a long term Ford stock owner, so I should qualify for the X Plan pricing. However, my dealer says it is not offered for the Mach e. He said their invoice does not even show an X Plan price. It does however show the other plan pricing.
Does anyone have an invoice with the X plan pricing...
My MME is in production - I've made babies quicker - but YAH!
tonight it shows data in my BCE Module, and nothing in my PCM Module
What does each module do?
And what do the address and instructions mean? I'm guessing machine language specific to Ford and maybe specific to the Mach e.
Just...
