Unlike an ICE car, the compressor can ramp up to full speed when the car is stopped. That gives you more cooling, but at the expense of compressor noise. To reduce the noise, increase the temperature setting or reduce the fan speed. Basically, turn it down if you find it too loud. There is no...

No, the Mach-E doesn't support AC output. Those adapters won't work. You'll have to wait for the next gen of Ford EV's, those will have it.

I would very highly doubt they would do that, because it requires 3rd party software (FORScan) and the knowledge of how to do it. Dealers don't use FORScan or switch on or off config options; they use FDRS, which doesn't typically allow those sort of config changes. FDRS would just have a train...

Ah. To clear the warning the BMS needs to be reset, and even then it can take a few days or week for the error to clear because the car has to learn the capacity of the new battery first. In some cases the dealer does not properly reset the BMS, which means the error may stay for a prolonged...

That's just a bug the car has sometimes. If your phone connects to the passenger side antennas first (like you came from the the passenger side and walked around to the driver's side), it won't always switch antennas fast enough and you have to wait a few extra seconds for it to figure this...

Interestingly, my current battery degradation on my 2022 is also around 8% with only ~47k miles, so this shows how battery degradation is primarily related to calendar aging rather than mileage on full BEVs. It's more about the age than the miles.

It needs to have an AGM battery, not a flooded battery. Both are considered lead-acid chemistry (they both have lead plates in sulfuric acid). A flooded battery would eventually be boiled dry (and cease to function) due to the higher voltage (>15V) set points for the AGM chemistry. So that was...

FYI you don't have to do the entire drain/recharge calibration process, the bare minimum is just to charge to 100% (starting at any %) at least once per month to avoid that warning message. That's as simple as hitting the "Start" button in the Ford app while you're plugged in, which will do a...

My question is why aren't the current set of wheels autoleaning or training? They should. I switch wheels every spring and fall, and keep the unused set right next to the Mach-E in the garage like you. It automatically figures it out, and I never have to train sensors. I park at work and take...

The "Check 12V battery" message in the Ford app means you just need to replace the 12V battery. That's it. It's not a 12V drain (that's a separate message "Electrical System Drain Service Required"), and therefore does not call for TSB 26-2005. They are treating it like a 12V drain, which it is...

Feature request: Do you think you could add a "last 15 minutes efficiency" reading? It would be great to have that number on the display while driving along with the wind speed and direction so you can keep track of any sudden changes. This is one major thing I feel is missing from the Mach-E...

Sounds like the park pawl accidentally engaged while driving, which would probably shear off and grenade it. Not sure why that would be tied to acceleration though. Bad software? Everything should be updated on your car to be safe. Flagging @Ford Motor Company since this might be the second...

Not me, lol. It's just reminding you to charge to 100% if you haven't in a while (important with LFP packs), because bad things can happen if you don't. Such as running out of charge with 40% indicated because the BMS is out of calibration.

It looks lowered to me. Perhaps intentionally to hide the final ground clearance.

What's the context here of needing a document when you already know the procedure, are you trying to prove something to a dealer? If you have the exact code, that can be looked up in the workshop manual, and the relevant pinpoint test will detail the procedure and steps involved to fix it. If...

Steering center is found within the first 30 seconds of driving between 9 and 30 mph. Get the car going straight, and try to let go of the wheel for 5+ seconds at a time.

Folks, please remember to schedule your OTAs (rather than clicking on "Update Now") if you have low 12V battery issues. That allows the 12V battery to precharge in the hours before the scheduled install on supported vehicles. Select a time in the middle of the night when you will not be driving...

The water intrusion happens inside the tailgate where you can't see it. Very common problem on older Mach-E's if you Google it. You can have water damage to switches even if it's not enough water to pour out of the handle. Here's one from only a week ago...

You said it lights up when you enter, but if you actually mean it lights up when you open the garage door, then the door opening might be letting the signal in from your phones. It will pick phones up from 50' feet away sometimes. If the phone is closer than about 25' away, it will let you...

FYI the camera coax should be coming off the connector at about the 9-10 o'clock position, and should not have any sharp bends near the connector. Like this: I would keep any dashcam wiring at least 6" away from that front camera.
