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.
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
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.
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...
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.
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...
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...
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...
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.
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...
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.
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...
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.
