  1. 12V battery charging

    I'm experiencing the same here for the last month or so. Ford Pass app tells me everyday that I'm in deep sleep mode and conserving 12 volt battery. Truck starts up just fine and shuts everything off when I turn off ignition. I'm hoping a software update can correct this.
  2. DIY photo tutorial: adding cruise control to 2022 Maverick XL

    You did a great service for us with your CC and TSR write ups. I've had the switches for a while now but lacked the nerve to do the jobs! It would be like winning the trifecta if you could do a write up on Lane Keeping as well. Thanks
  3. Hybrid battery cable lug inspect

    Here's a copy of the write up done on the end connector crimped onto the harness. I have no idea how this bolt figures into this fix. Ford part #W500566-S439.
  4. Here are the 2.5 Hybrid Maverick jump start locations

    I was concerned about that, too. I ordered a Gooloo 1200 Amp jump starter from Walmart. It's a tight fit, but works just fine. $55.00
  5. Hybrid Harness TSB 22-2340 (no crank / no start) with impacted dates: Mavericks built on or Before May 13, 2022

    My truck was completely dead in front of my house on 8/26. Being retired, I had no urgent need to drive it. I immediately ordered a Gooloo 1,200 Amp jump starter from Walmart. I used it to turn the truck on to go grocery shopping every few days or so. I was waiting for Ford to come up with an...
  6. *******HYBRID DEAD BATTERY REPAIR- CABLE LUG REPLACEMENT**********

    Wow, Tim, if this is true, it kinda changes everything. It makes so much more sense that the harness is stranded tinned copper wire. It always bothered me that Ford would design this hybrid using aluminum. So, apparently a copper lug will do the trick. Go figure.
  7. *******HYBRID DEAD BATTERY REPAIR- CABLE LUG REPLACEMENT**********

    Randy, thanks so much for all your efforts to inform our members here. I live in an old mobile home (1970) and aluminum wiring was a rude awakening for me! Anyway, you've been spot on how aluminum and copper don't like each other. Just viewed the latest tutorials concerning the harness on...
  8. Compensation from Ford for hybrid defects

    67 days is totally unacceptable. My truck sits dead in front of my place since 8/26. Until an approved fix of the harness or a replacement altogether, it'll sit here rather than on the dealer's lot. Looking forward to seeing a recall issued from Ford. If not, I wonder if a class action lawsuit...
  9. Tracking DEAD HYBRID Mavericks Reported Dealer Solutions / Fixes ...

    I ordered it on 6/16/21 and the build date was sometime in Oct. I drove it off the lot on 1/5/22.
  10. Tracking DEAD HYBRID Mavericks Reported Dealer Solutions / Fixes ...

    Add me, too! Happened 4 days ago. Went out to go shopping and it was dead. No deep sleep mode warning, no check engine light, etc. Put MM on 12 volt under seat and it read 12.3 volts. MM read 3.3 volts on charging posts. Ordered jump starter from Walmart and placed it on charging posts this AM...
  11. How-to remove factory steering wheel switches (for installing other switches such as cruise control) - DIY

    I just need to know if everyone who has disconnected the airbag, first disconnected the neg. of the battery and waited 15 to 30 minutes before removing it. Thanks.
  12. Poll - Illinois members who have their Mavericks

    I was surprised when the dealer gave me B plates yesterday. I live just outside Chicago and they're rules on B trucks are quite restrictive. No overnight parking of pickups on residential streets without city sticker. It goes on and on. But is the Maverick truly deserving of B plates. It's been...
  13. Gator SFX Tri-fold

    Thanks for the heads up. I've had the top on order since 10/26. With tax it was $284.90 and on back order. I contacted them and asked for a rebate to reflect the new price drop. I certainly won't hold my breath waiting for a reply.
  14. Fancy shoes: Falken Wildpeak AT 265/60R18 + 18" Black Rhino Arches Wheels on Maverick XL FWD

    As a Chicagoland resident, it's been my concern from the getgo that I'd be saddled with a B-Truck license plate. I checked Illinois laws and regs and read that as long as the majority of space was devoted to passengers, a regular license plate was in order. For those unfamiliar with Chicago law...
  15. In Production After Build Pushed Back a Week...???

    Okay, so if what you say is correct, my hybrid was built on 10/6/21. That's the date under Special Order. I went to that link that pinged my modem and it came back, "modem found". I was originally scheduled for 10/4 and moved back to 10/11. Go figure.
  16. ?

    I have a build date of 10/11 and I checked this morning and saw that my Mav is in production. Here's a copy of my window sticker.
  17. HYBRID Maverick: underhood / undercarriage / underbody - here's a video if you're interested

    Looks like there's no cover plate for easy access to the oil filter and drain plug. Bummer
