you don't have to remove all the first panel, just around the end of the second panel. I update my Mache - E every month with FDRS with a power supply on the 12volt battery.
I accidentally found your video and I must say it is a blessing. You come across as the god of mustang, I bet the designer of mustang can learn a few things from you. I have a few questions though, if I may :- How to switch off the alarm sound while reversing the car. How to switch off the seatbelt sound, especially when a slightly bigger passenger is sitting in the rear seat.
GREAT VIDEO! I unfortunately watched a driver violate the hard point rule and did not know he did it. Now I need to go back to the dealer to pick up the car and need to inspect from potential damage! Appreciate what you are doing.
Just found your channel (subscribed after watching all your videos) Greatly enjoy your presentation style from the Towing & Recovery industry perspective/needs..& clear verbals and closeups when showing items. Personally, I'm not a fan of the EVs, but we need to know as much as we can about every vehicle since we never know what call might come in. I've made a point to learn what you're showing & explaining & I wish the info you share was as easy to find back when i was researching. I had NOT ever learned about the Charge plug manual releases... your videos were great knowledge how to access. Are you going to do one on the Teslas? They are by far the most common to deal with due to higher sales.. I wish you luck with your channel & hope to see more videos soon....
We are happy to hear folks running Tow Trucks appreciate the content. I am working on some Tesla content but need to talk with the OEM on some things first,, they are a tough nut to crack when dealing with their vehicles. We have a few videos in edit right now, expect some new content soon. Links to all our Socials - linktr.ee/towtrucktech
Two comments: (1) The 12V leads in the front bumper will pop the frunk open, they will not allow you to open the doors to the car. Once the frunk pops, you can access the 12V charge points as you detail to attempt to jump the car. (2) Because the car has no rear tow solution, I installed a Draw-Tite Hidden Hitch receiver on the back. Has a big steel bar with holes that will be sturdy enough for a rear winch. Because basically 20% or more of Mach-Es made before June 2022 are going to completely fail -- some of these needing a tow -- I feel a hidden rear tow receiver (even if you never use the receiver in it) is a worthwhile $400 investment in case you ever need a rear tow
This was Avery good and educational video. I just traded my mache in last week but this is still a very good video. Any chance you can do one for the Rivian R1T?
I'm only a couple of minutes into the video and there's already a dangerous level of misinformation here. The leads located in the front bumper only provide a way to open the hood when the 12 volt battery is dead. It will not jump the car in any way. Once the hood is open then you have to remove a few of the beauty covers to get to the 12 volt battery where it can be properly jumped if needed. Then the electric door latches will be functional. Please revise this video before people get stranded longer than they have to be.
Continue watching the video, at 1:30 we begin to go through entry of the vehicle, it’s all there already. What you are saying is almost correct, sequencing of events is off a bit.
Find a better cameraman. He’s swinging the thing so fast, not only did your video make me dizzy, I couldn’t even see what you were pointing at. That’s videography 101: try to make your shots as stable as possible.
This information is gem. I will be for sure saving this. Thank you sir. For making this video
I will be taking delivery of my Mach-E in a few days. I really appreciate learning the ins and outs here. Very valuable information!
As a Mach-E owner, this video is awesome. Now I know what to watch for if I ever need my vehicle towed. Thank you.
Still waiting to take possession of my mach-e, but this video was awesome! Respect for being so incredibly proficient at your craft👍🏽
It was the most informative video I have seen in a while. You are informative and love the way you present your materials. Thanks n God bless
Well done, very informative. Just bought my wife a Mach E and appreciate the towing info.
Excellent video. Thank you for the info
Seriously, you provided some VERY good information. Thanks for sharing...

Very good information. And very well explained !!

Thanks for the Legit Tutorial. Looking into picking one up

Love your Mom !!
Can you add a video for tow Hyundai IONIQ5 ? Thanks
Wow
Best video
So, where can I lift it to rotate my tires?
Can you do an EV6? I want to know what to tell the tow truck.
This was Avery good and educational video. I just traded my mache in last week but this is still a very good video.
Any chance you can do one for the Rivian R1T?
R1S is days away, editing right now. Fundamentally the same vehicle, will touch on an R1T hopefully within a few weeks to cover the differences.
Rivian video is live!
I remember learning all this the hard way and just yelled at the car
Are you a Tower?
@@towtrucktech1555 far from it but your video is super well done and informative. I needed this video a lot sooner in my life.

How many battery charger
This plastic panels are just for esthetic...once e I will have to open them I will never put them back.
EV should not be used to jump another EV, Hmmm. Anyone else see the irony?
