2017 and 2018 FFE's will definitely be able to use Superchargers with third party adapters like A2Z and Lectron, probably starting in May or June when Tesla opens them up for general usage. We will need to activate via the Tesla app and have an adapter, but there's no reason it wouldn't work.

Thanks for the info, when will the app be available for public use? Is it available for both Android and Apple? What differentiates you from Recurrent?

There is widget for Android phones called Ford Status Widget which works reasonably well with Focus Electrics: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.khpylon.fswidget It connects through your Ford Pass account and shows you open doors / windows, charging status, location, odometer...

Thanks. I didn't realize the heating began as soon as 50F.

I have a 2017 FFE. Last night, as (almost) always, I plugged in the car to charge. Value charge kicked in at the specified time and car was charged in the morning. I didn't drive it today, just kept it plugged in, past the Go Time. This evening I'm working in the garage and keep hearing the...

This was discussed in an earlier post - how to have windows open and close from the key fob on US vehicles that aren't set that way from Ford. Previously it required using a windows app called FoCCCus, but that hasn't been updated in a bit and doesn't work with 2017+ models (and possibly 2016)...

Awesome! You're all by yourself down there in the middle of the country.

Yes, you're all set, just one entry.

I got it working again, was able to transfer it to my account. Won't run it forever but if you haven't signed up, please do. Good patterns already starting to appear.

Try it now, I tried to sign up for an account and unlock it.

I found someone started a Zeemaps of Ford Focus Electric owners. I added myself, feel free to add yourself as well! Let's see where we're all located. https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=1107334

Great! You're welcome. The feedback in the system sucks, they should make it more clear. If my USB didn't blink I'd have thought it wasn't doing anything either.

Just did the update this morning. Successfully running Sync 3. After updating did a "check for updates" via WiFi, and now it's downloading another file "JR3T-14G423-CA_103602.tar.gz" Tried a few times, it's unsuccessful. Seems there's an update to the update though. Maybe it will pick it up...

I used a 8GB USB. I don't know why they say 32GB, that's way overkill. I used the USB port in the center console box. Know that there is very poor indication of update status. You may no see any message for 5+ minutes. Just plug in the USB, turn the car on and let it roll for 30 minutes...

The zip file to extract to a USB drive is about 1.6 GB. You'll need at least a 2GB or 4GB USB drive. Sync 3 update went well.

The priority is the Go Time, not the Value Charge. So if it thinks it needs to charge in order to be 100% full at the GoTime it will charge even outside the value charge window. As described above, when you set a Go Time there is a setting for the cabin temperature. I normally do the 72...

Does anybody know what the colors of the battery graph mean in the MyFord Mobile app and the desktop? Most of the time the battery animation appears blue, but sometimes it shows as yellow or red. And it's not always consistent even between the app and the desktop website. I suspect it's...

Were you DC fast charging? The car will lock the connector in that case, you have to stop the charging (on the EVSE or hit the unlock charge port button on the dash) before the connector will release.
