    such a little thing, does the brake booster pump continue to run after the car is shut down, can you tell ?

    A ScanGauge with X-Gauge:tells lots, for $ 150-.00 ...

    Some what off topic but isn't there a fan to help cool the high voltage battery, if so does this cooling fan continue to run even after the car is off ? (again if so the 12v battery must get a real workout)

    Wonder if Fusion hybrid, C-max & Energis use the same 12v (2013 MY)

    Wow that Ice Storm looks nice, got me wondering about Sunset now ...

    HBV fan(s) cooling off the battery pack after the car is shut down but with the temps we have around here the 12v battery would really get a work out (not an issue with my 2010, the fan is done the moment you shut off the car) Would like a new car but this is a biggie for me

    probably is the HBV fan(s) cooling off the battery pack after the car is shut down but with the temps we have around here the 12v battery would really get a work out (not an issue with my 2010, the fan & fuel pump is done the moment you shut off the car) Would like a new car but this is a biggie for me

    I wasn't making a statement (thats why I ended my sentence with a question mark) Still trying to wrap my head around openXC / Can bus thing - sounds like a good idea to me.

    I got the Atkinson technology bit from forddotcom a few nights ago, the 1000 rpm start story was told to me several years ago, have found no reason to doubt it.

    Bet first responders aren't real keen on hybrid debadging http://www.king5.com/news/cities/seattle/Seattle-Fire-Department-tackles-firefighting-of-hybrid-cars-190680901.html

    So I guess Ford is an example of a OEM who does not wish to make the CAN signals public ?
  20. rfruth
    sure hope not (whats too fast & steep) ?
  21. rfruth
    So it may be best to use the AC when in doubt (helps to cool the high voltage battery) ?

    Propel the car while generating energy lol (no physics is my guess) but then he goes on to talk about the (12v) battery & its ability to start the car (wonder if he knows the Camry & Fusion hybrid have no starter motor), if you can't dazzle them with brilliance baffle with BS ...

    Just got a tweet from @FordService @FordService @rfruth The car (2013 FFH, brake vacuum pump) only has power to it when the vehicle is running. The power is controlled by the ABS module using a relay. =) ^MS 03:02 PM - 01 Aug 13 hope this is true, anyone want to chime in ?
