Perfect, thank you!

I'm pulling individual cells out of my dead FFE's pack for DIY projects. This is what's printed on the side of the cells: LGX P1 MA214X4 MA21440640 I've been trying to find more info on them (specifically: Capacity and C Rating). They look almost identical to this 15Ah model...

Just opened one up and can confirm, in case any curious souls stumble upon this old post. LGX P1 MA214X4 EDIT: looks like it auto hyperlinked the word “soul” :lol:

Excellent news. I can at least give it a shot. Thank you again.

Follow-up question. There's a crucial part of the instructions that instructs me to "Remove the retainer from the parking brake cable bracket, and position the parking brake cable and bracket aside. " The car is parked on the side of the road, and I'm relying on the parking brake to keep it...

Perfect. Thank you!

I'm hoping to extract the upper and lower HV battery packs from my FFE, but I don't have a hydraulic jib crane laying around. Transmission jacks seem more reasonably priced, so I might just pick one of those up for the lower pack. I'm referencing this very helpful guide for steps and safety...

Alright, so more details. This is the harness: PART # CM5Z14A318D He says the brackets that secure the harness to the vehicle have a rubber component that dried/degraded over time, which left the harness exposed to water. It does kinda make sense, since we were having a ridiculously rainy week...

Our FFE was unable to start earlier this week, so we towed it to the dealer. I just now heard back from them. It needs $3.5k in repairs (water leak in battery harness), and that repair might lead to the discovery of any number of systems which have also shorted out as a result of the leak. It...

Ah, found this... should have searched harder first... https://www.startmycar.com/ford/focus-electric/guides/tire-rotation

My FFE's road noise from the rear tires has been picking up when at highway speeds. I'm 99% sure it's just overdue a tire rotation, but also I know EV batteries are heavy beasts. Just double checking here... can I rotate with the pattern just like any ICE car? Thanks!

Aaannnddd we're all good, It was just the 12V. Phew...

Well, my wife is stranded in a parking lot with our FFE... She can't remember the exact message, but she went to turn it on and it said something like "System shutting down to save battery", or the topic. No it's giving no response... Any ideas? Is this just the 12V battery that needs replacing?

Fascinating, and just the education I was hoping for. Sounds like a case of all-is-well. Thanks!

Hello all, Our family FFE tends to "budget" a different number of miles each time we turn it on fully charged. I perceived this to be totally normal, and assumed it was calculated based on current temperature, and the driving habits from the previous ride. It's usually around 65 miles, with a...

Sadly, I have a 2014 and this recall says 2015-2016. Do we think there's still a chance? And Skyguy, the extreme level of detail is much appreciated. I might end up picking your brain depending on the size of the job. A little bit about my DIY "workspace": it's a tiny garage in the city with...

Oohhh, this is pertinent information… any advice on finding something that matches?

Ok, good to know this wasn't a self-inflicted injury from "L." I wish it was just a mount. There are so many videos of people swapping them into their ICE cars. But, the more I feel around, it's clear that the mounts are solid and the sound/instability is coming from somewhere inside the... is...

I isolated the problem from my previous post and uncovered a lot more information to share. I'm dreading the ramifications of my findings. The guys at Firestone INSISTED that there was nothing wrong with the car, and Ford won't take a look for two weeks, so I bought some ramps and looked myself...

Got it. Thank you. Went to Ford and they said I could get it looked at for $150 in two weeks. Then Firestone said "Give us twenty bucks and a couple hours, we'll do a full inspection." lol. I'm gonna get the low-down from them, and then call dealer to see if its covered under warranty. I...
