Questions About 2012 Ford Transit Connect Electric Systems

  • Is it more expensive to repair Ford Transit Connect electric vehicle systems? It depends. Some high voltage items are only available as parts of larger units. We also offer promotional financing when you use the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)
  • How often should you replace Ford Transit Connect brakes? A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Ford Transit Connect brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.
  • What do I do if my Ford Transit Connect dashboard warning light is on? Your Ford Transit Connect dashboard warning light might be on due to a number or reasons. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more.
  • What can cause my Transit Connect to leak water? It is normal for an electric car to have some water underneath it after running the air conditioning for a period of time. This moisture is present because electric cars still use a receiver dryer assembly to keep the contaminants out of the vehicles A/C refrigerant, and as part of this process, some condensation is produced as a byproduct. On warm days, the condensation drains under the vehicle. A little bit of water is normal. But if you notice a significant amount of water or any amount of coolant leaking from your Transit Connect, it may be a sign of a problem with the cooling system or another component.

2012 Ford Transit Connect EV Services

Does your Ford Transit Connect run differently than it used to? Maybe you've noticed slower acceleration, or it just doesn't feel as "peppy" as it once did. If that's the case, our technicians can run through a complimentary* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. There could be an issue with the high voltage cooling system in your Transit Connect -- if the high voltage battery is running too hot, it will reduce your battery's performance. Or, maybe your Transit Connect has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules? Firestone Complete Auto technicians are trained to provide conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, including 2012 Ford Transit Connects.

Certain Firestone stores also provide high voltage/advanced services for electric vehicles like the Ford Transit Connect. High voltage services are any that include removing the Transit Connect's high voltage, safety/service disconnect switch/plug, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or high voltage cables, etc. Call ahead before making an appointment to confirm the high voltage services at your closest location.

Your store's high voltage electric vehicle service may include:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: After any symptoms are identified, then our team performs a diagnostic on your 2012 Ford Transit Connect to get to the root of the trouble. With the information gathered, your expert technician can further investigate any electric vehicle problems and decide if more analysis is required to complete the fix. No repairs are performed without your consent.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: Your technician will inspect the Transit Connect's high voltage battery filter (if applicable) and clean the ducts of the battery.  (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: Cables can get damaged. In this inspection, your tehnician will examine the exterior cable jackets and connectors and test to make sure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis of your Ford Transit Connect. If the cable needs to be replaced, they'll let you know.

Isolation test: This test involves using a unique tool to see if any high voltage parts are "leaking" electric energy to the Transit Connect's chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Ford Transit Connect's high voltage battery a goner? Electric vehicle batteries may need replacement sooner in hot climates or if you frequently use Level 3 fast-charging stations, since these stations may heat the battery more. We can replace your electric vehicle's high voltage battery.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll review the electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), power inverter, and/or regenerative braking in your 2012 Ford Transit Connect.

These are just a few of the more specialized electric car services that might be offered at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call ahead to confirm!
