    Battery health and resetting the BCM

    If you plan to use parking mode much, I would recommend a dashcam battery pack--I have a low end Thinkware iVolt. Even still, you'd want your voltages up while car is running to properly charge those. I must confess I am perplexed by the BMS that Ford is using. Without changing battery SoC...

    Winter tire option for 2025 Explorer ST Line with street pack

    They should work but if they have TPMS sensors, those will not.

    My ST doesn't move after replace used ABS

    Don't know about Forscan, but in FDRS, you would do a PMI on the new ABS module to get it to work properly with your vehicle. Edit: check out youtube... some are using Forscan to do the PMI

    Passenger front diff leak

    Wifeys-ST, did you use a seal install kit? wondering what a. good one is. I too may have overfilled the front diff fluid. I get some seepage from the seal but waiting to see if goes away. May be doing this too. Thanks TangledPossum for the part#... I couldn't find it searching a Parts site.

    Need guidance on replacing the alternator.

    The original alternator may have been good. You can't go by what the voltage is because that is being controlled by the BMS. While I did not have the same dash errors you did, I did have fluctuating voltages, dipping down below 12V at times. New battery did not help. BMS sensor replacement...

    Need guidance on replacing the alternator.

    So if the alternator is putting out consistent voltages (no drops) with the BMS sensor detached, then something is up with the BMS. Problem is, I believe there are multiple factors that determine what voltages it will put out, only one of them being battery state of charge. I would definitely...

    Need guidance on replacing the alternator.

    The device is attached to the negative terminal of the battery. you will see a connector attached to it. Battery state of charge is in BdyCM section.

    Need guidance on replacing the alternator.

    BMS itself could be the problem. I would unplug it's connector and see what voltage the alternator is putting out. You will get an error message when you do unplug it but this is just for testing purposes. Also, for the time being, change battery state of charge to 95% (from default...
