What model 50 amp charger did you use? I’m in the same boat with an F-150 and Mach-e so I figure I should get the stronger charger.
Followed advice of others on the Mach-E forum and purchased these 2 items

Man, the things you can learn from this forum are endless. I purchased a 72 hr license for PTS, and the amount of info available is wild. It looks like the last OTA update sent my way expired before successfully installing, and it shows no OTAs in process. Since we use my truck for all our big drives, getting updated to BC1.4 is a big priority for me, and has me thinking about investing in the tools needed to do my own FDRS updates.

Looking at my software status, it shows 19 different modules with updates available. Am I right to assume that having any of these with available updates would prevent BC 1.4 from getting sent via OTA? I'm trying to weigh the cost (PC laptop, Mongoose, and FDRS license) vs possibly waiting for OTA.
I got after it today and tackled all my outstanding FDRS updates. For some reason, it still shows ACM and PSCM as updates available, even though I ran both of them (twice) successfully. The IPMA also shows as an update available in PTS, but it didn't appear as an update in FDRS. I think I'm just FORScan updates away from BC 1.4, if someone could share those edits with me that would be much appreciated.

The only way to get those to go away is to do a module PMI, not worth the risk! It will also remove any Forscan changes that have not been reported to the mothership yet.

Has anyone noticed that it is much easier to tell the steering wheel that "your hands are on the wheel" after the latest IPMA + PSCM update?

It may just be in my head but I noticed that during a non-blue cruise lane centering drive.

The non BC lane-centering also just finds the center a lot better too like BC 1.4 does.

This was on a friend's Platinum upgrading from Blue Cruise 1.0.

The non bc lane-centering is just so good after the update. I rush to get it on - Makes driving this big boy a little easier in a city like Vegas.

Could you share with me the FORScan updates so I too can give BC 1.4 a try?

I will re-direct you to someone smarter than myself on this subject: @rugedraw

Did you updates all your modules using the Ford software yet or is that still pending?

I sent him a PM but I read somewhere he's on vacation, so I didn't want to bother him. I got all my available FDRS updates done on Monday!

I got all the FORScan updates done this weekend with the help of @Ffdlt371 and was able to test out BC1.4. Wow, I'm blown away by how much of an improvement this is. I was very pleased with BC1.0, but this is going to make our long road trips so much more enjoyable. Thanks to everyone in this thread, as y'all gave me the confidence to take on these updates myself, and I'm happy I did.
