MK8 Fiesta ⚡️ Wireless Charger Installation ⚡️ (Beyond Products Wireless Charging Pad)

[@JBCTR]

Unfortunately it looks like the manufacturer has withdrawn this product. 😞 A shame, as it is a great product! Ford make their own wireless charger which is available to purchase directly from them. Thanks for watching :)

Great video, fitted mine in 15mins following your quality instructions 👍 I own a PE and the undertray already had a pre-cut slot/tab so no drilling required, wish I’d checked before ordering a set of Christmas tree drill bits lol 🙄 Thanks again

great vid, just what i was looking for. my mrs has a ST-3 in silver fox on order and i'm getting things for it before its anywhere near ready haha, just wanted to see how easy this was to install for her. i don't think i'll mention the word 'drilling' when talking about her first brand new motor lol

Isnt that where your Ford Key Fob detector is?

[@rorygallagher-redslug]

Many thanks for the video! I followed this tutorial yesterday to install mine! I used the OEM Ford one. I do have a couple of gripes with the Ford version though: - I'm not sure about the quality of the included cable. I had a faff with the cables as the cars connector kept knocking the pins out of the chargers cable when I tried to connect it up. I managed it anyway, even though the pins are sticking out a little! - Surprisingly the mat on the Ford version doesn't fit perfectly well. It's ok, but I think it could be better. The third party one in your video looks like a better fit which is a bit mad! - My phone (Samsung s21) is a little picky about where it likes to sit on the mat. It seems to do the job ok though! I've now ordered a wireless android auto dongle so I can go full wireless and stop having to plug my phone in each time I get into the car.

[@JBCTR]

Sounds great! Glad the video was useful. I wish they still sold this one 😔

[@gleneverson2612]

What device did you order to make your android auto work wireless please? Wish mine was!!

[@rorygallagher-redslug]

@@gleneverson2612 I ordered and use the aawireless dongle. The dongle works well but there is an issue with wireless charging while using wireless android auto... The wireless android auto must use more power and the wireless charging speed isn't really fast enough to keep up so the phone doesn't actually charge when used in this way. It's still convenient not having to plug in the phone and the wireless android auto is surprisingly more reliable than the wired, but the fact that it doesn't charge is a big downside given the phone charges pretty quickly when using wired android auto

[@gleneverson2612]

@@rorygallagher-redslug was it expensive and where'd you get it? I wonder if there's any way of making it faster at charging? Better cables etc?

[@christophereugeniou4974]

Great video Johnny. What's the rubber mat that's there already there with the key icon imprinted on it? I thought it was a wireless charger

[@JBCTR]

just a standard mat I think!

[@DustyShedGarage]

[@AWTransport276]

What are we going to do if you want to put your phone on the tray but then again we don’t want our phone to charge maybe because the phone has a decent percentage?

[@andreibogdan9828]

Thanks for making so useful videos! Great job! I was waiting for this new video and this wireless charging system is quite useful! By the way, I pick up my new Fiesta ST next week, Tuesday or Wednesday, can't wait! I would definitely use some of the parts you presented to us! I wonder if a Samsung S9+ would fit on that? 🤔 Anyway, nice to see you again Jonny!

[@JBCTR]

Glad you are enjoying the videos! You can check by holding the phone horizontally in the void before ordering :)

[@pigeonpoo1823]

Probably a dumb question, but with all the mods done, is your warranty completely void?

[@stephenhitchen1434]

As with most of jonnys mods surely if he is on a lease his mods will void his warranty, especially the revo map and exhaust system.

Did the trim removal tools come with the unit, or as I suspect do you have to get them elsewhere? Thanks

[@JBCTR]

JohnF Hey! Trim remover tools were pretty cheap and off amazon. There is a link to the ones I have in the description. It’s an affiliate link so if you purchase using my link, I get a small amount of commission at no cost to you 😁

[@UltiMogr]

why do the original thing, has a key drawn into it? I thought it was a key charger. so the key is not charged? you have to replace the battery?

[@JBCTR]

UltiMo_ GR Presumably as it’s a good place to keep the key? It certainly doesn’t charge it as there is no power down there, so you’ll need to replace the key battery anyway. However they do last years so nothing to worry about :)

[@UltiMogr]

@@JBCTR Since there is an option for a factory wireless charger extra, I was under the impresion that keyless versions, have the wireless charger as standar. Well ok.. Good thing my phone doesn't have wireless charging. (I am about to receive my fiesta this week hopefully after 3 month of waiting and binge watching fiesta videos)

[@ostomyjack6602]

The key symbol is because thats close to where one of the key receivers are so if you are setting up a “my key” or “master key” you have to put the key in that slot, I have just fitted my wireless charger with the help of your video so thank you but I am now worried about battery drains as is this not the same as just leaving something plugged into the lighter socket? So far with mine with everything on the vehicle turned off and locked I can still see that my phone is charging through the window. Any thoughts?

[@UltiMogr]

@@ostomyjack6602 yes mine keeps power on for about 10 minutes. some versions do the same with the floor lighting as well. mine thankfully switches off 1 second after locking. but the 12V power is on for about 10 minutes

[@leonmason77]

Looks good, but the only thing that you lose on is CarPlay and will it take an iPhone XS Max in that space?

[@JBCTR]

Leon TheProfessional Not tested an XS max so I’m not sure. I had the same concerns about CarPlay but the wireless charger is a good option if just using Bluetooth, or for the passengers 👍🏼

To use carplay you need to connect via a cable that charge your phone anyway.... so whats the point !?

[@nilzr1]

So what's the charge rate on this pad? Factory equipped Focus Mk4's charge pad is known to be a very slow recharge. It's a little better than keeping your battery on the same level.

[@JBCTR]

nilzr1 It’s a dual coil pad, but in my testing it charges at approx the same rate as a 5W wireless Charger in the house.

[@nilzr1]

@@JBCTR Iphone's wireless charging is rated up to 7,5W , Samsung up to 9W. Do you find the charging sufficient?

[@JBCTR]

nilzr1 It’s enough for a quick top up, or to keep it topped up. Don’t expect a rapid charge but it isn’t bad 👍🏼

[@lukasgdr7427]

hello which iphone do you have? or does the dss iphone x fit in?

[@JBCTR]

iPhone X fits.. just!

Nice video but one thing, I thought Fiesta ST already has a wireless charger there, at least the ST3. Am I wrong? Maybe in the UK specs are slightly different than Europe? Update: Turns out the new Focus has the wireless charger as an option but Fiesta does not. Well, my phone doesn't have wireless charging anyway :D

[@JBCTR]

You are correct :) it's nice to have the option to add one of these in the Fiesta.

[@RichardAtkins]

Would you know if it's a fast wireless charger?

[@JBCTR]

Richard Atkins Hi mate, there’s nothing in the blurb to say that it is. It is a dual coil charger, but in reality it charges at about the same rate as my 5w charger at home.

Just installed mine and have to warn anyone who has a bigger phone like mine (Samsung s10 5g) which is similar to plus models the phone doesn't sit flush if you have a case it will not charge , I have a very slim not bulky case and it doesn't sit flush, if I remove my case and wiggle the phone in certain way it just barely fits and will charge but can't be doing this everytime and the risk of phone getting scratched 😔 only other thing I'm thinking to do is trim the plastic surround but afraid if it will look obvious I have customised it 😡 not happy customer

[@leokuu89]

Thanks for answering this mate, I have the S10 plus and really wanted the charger but it just doesn't look large enough so never risked it.

@@leokuu89 to be honest est tge s10 plus is slight smaller than tge s10 5g that I have so I might fit even with a case so don't rule it out , I still have mine and it will add a little interest to the car on resale plus ford do £10 off new customer so get it for £60
