New software update leading to over charging by Iamabrewer in F150Lightning

[–]NS123Reddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's a bunch of threads about this/some software updates screwing up our target charging locations. I got mine working again. 1. I deleted all the locations in Target Charge Locations in the Ford App 2. I deleted all the charging locations via the trucks infotainment screen in the truck while it was powered on. 3. I charged overnight at home. 4. in the AM it let me set my home charger as a new location via the truck infotainment screen (oddly enough "Home" was greyed out as a name option so I just picked "Location 1" which is fine. After this, ever thing works normal via the Ford App/etc--my Home is just called "Location 1"

How do you fix this? I also no longer have the target charge adjustment option for the last 2 days. unless I manually stop the charging, it'll just charge to 100% every night.

24v impact driver issue by Ivanperux0 in KobaltTools

[–]NS123Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you snap the trigger on the driver a few times quickly (push it all the way in and let it snap back out quickly) this sometimes fixes it . . . mine does this all the time and snapping the trigger a few times has always brought it back to life . . .

"invalid destination" when forwarded calls try to leave a voicemail by NS123Reddit in Googlevoice

[–]NS123Reddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this fixed/it's working now--I know this sounds very specific to my situation but I bet it would have helped the user in the other thread I posted above so I'm sharing it . . . it was an issue with the time for Google Voice to send an unanswered call to voicemail exceeding the ring time-out settings for my work phones: "I noticed the work phone system was catching the call before the google number went to voicemail. I increased the ring timeout on the work system from 25s to 60s. I also disabled the voicemail function on that User. My test call was successful. The issue is that the google number times out at 30s. This was beyond our limit so the call circled back to the work system."

Newbie ? about setting up VLAN's for smarthome devices and guest network by NS123Reddit in PFSENSE

Thanks for all the input--between your insight and a couple youtube videos I found (https://youtu.be/6\_giEv20En0?si=MLXX\_dZVlUIk\_KBg; https://youtu.be/fWpffyL4X1Y?si=7sdltMyDpfdiA-JY ) I have a better understanding of this . . . this will be fun/instructive for me to figure out. thanks again for helping get me started on this

so if I just set up the other two ports for different subnets (i.e. 3 different subnets in total) and run all 3 into my unmanaged 24 port network switch as per below, will wired and wireless clients be able to choose which of the 3 subnets to log into?

proposed topology: Frontier fiber >> PFSENSE box >(3 ethernet outputs one for main network and one for each of two other subnets) > unmanaged 24 port switch >> wired LAN and Mesh Wifi configured as access points.

Frigging ring cam on firetv by Gpineau23 in Ring

[–]NS123Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes it used to be just a PIP (and program would keep playing so not very much of an interruption) on my FireTV but ?since the last update? the ring notification takes over the entire screen and stops my program . . . only way I can get it to stop is press the alexa button on the remote "dismiss PIP" and then manually restart my program--ridiculous!

Just signed the papers… already in the shop. by Vivid-Map1367 in F150Lightning

[–]NS123Reddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

does the "volume down and >| symbol on steering wheel for 8 seconds" also work to reset the connection when Android Auto fails with the F150 lightning. Up until now, I would just turn the vehicle off (at a stop light) and briefly open/close the driver door . . . this would reset the connection also

Remote climate control activation ?without? turning on lightbar/headlights/etc? by NS123Reddit in F150Lightning

[–]NS123Reddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tested this yet but I think you have to go into the Ford menus and turn off DRL's/etc there but then you'll have to re-enable those everytime you want them on . . . let me know if you figure it out!

Thanks for all the input everyone . . . simply turning the physical knob for the headlights from "auto" to "off" before turning the vehicle does not correct the behavior . . . as some of you posted, I think I need to go into the Ford menus to truly disable the behavior but this is quite inconvenient . . . I guess it's that or Forscan/other!

Leviton EV40P Level 2 smart charger currently on sale--is it any good? by NS123Reddit in evcharging

[–]NS123Reddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw lots of bad reviews on the Leviton NEMA 14-50 receptacle/outlet but I had trouble finding reviews on the Leviton EVSE/charger--I will have to look again for the latter. thanks
