Gladestorm, Sure, ok. But, just so you know, the MFT display might read 100% charged while the H_BATT_CHAR pid reads the actual level of the HV battery charge. It has been my experience, so far, that the vehicle will indicate 100% charged when the pid is reading somewhere over 90%. Also...

Hi Guys. I am the service manager that you are referring to. While doing some diagnostics, we found redings for 88 battery cells. I would assume that means that there are 88 battery cells total. We were reading information from the BECM about state of charge on the battery cells. There was a...

If your dealer is looking into it, give them a chance. Contacing Ford will cause Ford to call your dealer to see what's going on. If you believe they are taking too long, call them for an update. If you have to call too many times, then call Ford. Everything has to go through the dealership...

The front plate is required here too, but I like how mine turned out. I bought an aerodynamic, smoked plate cover from Advanced Auto for the front and rear. Since my car is Tuxedo Black Metallic, it really looks good!

Well, since we have nitrogen available in our shop, all of my vehicles, trailers, bikes have it. I have been very happy with the results. I offer the nitrogen inflation to our employees for free, and nearly all of our employees have been using it also. My guess is that if you could get it for...

Not sure if this will work, but here are the photos I took for this mod, copy and paste if you need...

Yes, use a single wire to fuse 45. As an alternative, like I stated earlier, you could install a diode and only connect to they drivers side lamp (yellow/blue) and power the entire marker lamp circuit. Not sure if a 5A fuse would be enough in this scenario, however. I have not checked the...

Humidity varies ALOT. The amount of water vapor in the air will vary with the humidity. Since there are sensitive electronics inside the wheel, designed to be open to the air, any humidity is corrosive to these sensors. I can tell you, as a member of the service community, that aluminum...

Easy one: Swap the brake and tail sockets in the rear lamps for a cool, unique look from the back. Reminds me of cats eyes and wiskers. Lol 8-)

As for the LED tail lamps. There is no power source in the rear, that I'm aware of, to power these all the time. So, unless you plan on runing a wire all the way to the back, I do not recommend trying it. However!.... To make your LED tail lamps stand out more, try removing the tail lamps...

UGH. I just spent too much time typing up all the details, only to lose it when I stepped away from my desk for a minute. Here goes again. 6 steps for the eyebrow LED lamp mod: 1. Remove both headlamps. 2 screws in each, use a flat-blade screwdriver. 2. Locate the wires for the LED lamps and...

Ok guys. So I performed the headlamp mod this weekend and it turned out great. I sent the pics to jachady to load, as I could not get them to load. I checked the circuit in the fuse box that we're using, and it is fused at another point at 100A, which is way too high for this circuit. I...

Sill plates with 'Focus' or 'Electric', lighted or not. (I got the lighted Electric ones. ) http://accessories.ford.com/kit-10604.html

I installed nitrogen in my tires when i first purchased it, and increased to 40 psi. I drive 60 miles/day, all highway/interstate speeds and average 286 Wh/mi. Unfortunately, I have nothing to compare to since it's been that way since new. Temps are falling now, but I was reading mid 80's to...

I'll be performing this mod soon. I can post detailed instructions and pics when it's completed. I helped jachady research how to do his last year. 2008 Escape Hybrid 2014 FFE Tuxedo black Mods: Modified rear tail lamps (swapped tail and brake bulbs, looks so much better!) Tinted windows 20%...

Re: Gladestorm, The entire process took 21 days from start to finish. I believe the time from determining that the battery was un-repairable to our doorstep was about 7 days. I'm pretty sure we delayed the process by 1 day, just to make sure our ducks were all in a row before ordering it...

I work 30 miles from home, and bought my FFE in February of this year (during the -20f stretch!). Luckily, I work at the dealership, so I can charge at work and home. Earlier this summer, I needed to make a trip, after work, about 30 miles away in the opposite direction. I was fully charged...

Hey Guys. I am the Service Manager at Havill-Spoerl Ford Lincoln, where John works. I also own a FFE and have over 10K gas-free miles. I also have a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid with over 130k miles on it. I have to say, it was nice to have everything flow for this repair, and to have a customer...
