Thanks for this info and thread, but sorry you had the difficulty. I have a 2013 Focus BEV since September 2012. I had just mentioned to some people that the only maintenance expense the car has had was a new set of tires a year ago at 60000 miles. I was just going to drive to the grocery...

I scheduled the recall with Richmond (VA) Ford for today Friday 16 Dec, this previous Monday. She said they would call me if parts didn't come in, and Tuesday morning they texted a confirmation of the appointment. I dropped the car off at 8:00 a.m. today and a shuttle driver dropped us off at...

Thanks for posting this issue. I work in wireless communications with some tower sites supported by battery backup. Similar to automotive batteries, if the battery voltage got as low as 2.1 VDC (!) for any length of time, chances are that battery has been severely damaged and cannot be trusted...

Well that's weird. I reduced the size of all of the photos in Photobucket to the same 600 x 450, yet on my screen all the pictures display huge except for the last one, which is the size I was hoping all would be. I'll try to play around and get them all reduced to the same size as the last one...

trying links to photobucket.

This is fairly easy to establish. The draw for the electric seat heaters is minimal compared to the heater and defroster, and until winter temps drop into the 30s and below this is my preferred way to offset the chill. The seat heaters will draw 200-300 Whr compared to the heater which can...

Trey did you post somewhere more detail on which module was replaced? I have been without external communications to the MFM App through the internet for about a year. The dealer doesn't know what to do, most of the young techs think I'm talking about bluetooth setup, which in Sync to iPhones...

Please take a look at the other topic "Real Time Look at Accessory Power Consumption", or something like that. Good photos on how to see your real time usage of battery power.

That makes sense, thanks for the info.

Hi and thanks for the post. The Main Battery is 360V DC. It of course can be charged by 110V AC or 240V AC (level 2 charger). It also powers the 12V DC battery that is used for the traditional accessories like radio and lights, DC to DC converted from 360:12. The power for driving comes from...

I meant to say dwf, I had read that the auto wipers was possible but never knew how, 8-)

Well, the answer is yes, you can display these accessory gauges while driving in My View. I like this car even more, getting off my lazy behind and finally exploring the menus. I believe I still have just scratched the surface of this car's capabilities. This view shows, actively, real time...

No, I didn't contact the dealer. I was going to call my salesman and I'm sure they would have been glad to take a look at it or flash the most recent version. It did solve itself, and the problem that had surfaced just before that with the Bluetooth Stereo not appearing in the steering column...

I was trying to find some info but I don't have any idea.

It means jam your foot down on the accelerator as hard as you can from a standing start. ;)

I'll copy and paste something I put in another Forum. Thanks to Jeff A and a couple of threads lately, I finally did what I've been intending to do for 6 weeks, play with the many options of the displays. Specifically I had wished there was a way to see what was going on and using energy other...

We started discussing this in another thread, possibly even different forum. There is surfacing a noticeable reduction in range, and some of that even appears unavoidable as it may be going for conditioning the battery within a certain temperature range, as even if I kill the climate I still...

Yes I'm keeping my small Saturn SUV Vue, it's a 2002 model 4 cyl, all paid for and low insurance. In fact I need to move it around and drive it today for an errand just to keep it viable. If I need a long trip out of state or to haul a Christmas Tree or other things around I still want this...

I guess there isn't a "like" button here, but I agree as a commuting car this is hard to beat, and a very well built and designed car.

Thanks for the reminder about Sync updates. My daughter mentioned that some time ago with her Fiesta and it helped with some issues. In the meantime, look what showed up yesterday evening going out to grocery shop. The Ford emblem and everything reappeared. In the previous 3 days the...
