Distance to destination stuck
I have a 2023 F150 Lightning. Using a BLE OBD adapter with ABRP Premium. The app works great. Range estimate is very accurate, within 2-3% most drives. I have noticed though that the distance to my destination calculation displayed on the instrument cluster is always stuck at the initial distance. Is this a bug with ABRP or with Ford’s Sync software?
To clarify a bit, typically if I enter a destination in Ford’s onboard navigation, or in Apple Maps, the distance to my destination is displayed on the instrument cluster and it ticks down as I drive. Since I began to use ABRP with live data from the OBD adapter, this distance to destination number is set to the initial distance, and does not change as I drive. Always showing the initial distance calculation.
- Where does this happen?
- ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

Can you send us a photo of the display which displays the distance? We are unsure of which component is being shown in the F-150.
Can you test the public beta of ABRP 5.7.0 to see if it works there? Join at https://testflight.apple.com/join/uX9LuvcQ

Here is the screenshot of ABRP running on CarPlay, showing distance to destination 94 km. The other image is photo taken of the instrument cluster at the same time as the screenshot, showing 146 km to destination, which is what was displayed for the entire drive. The next day, it was working properly.

Thanks Greg! A couple of follow-ups to make sure I understand correctly:
Was 146 km the correct initial distance of the trip?
When you say “next day it was working” does that mean that it correctly updated during the whole drive the day after?
Did you give our 5.7.0 beta (see link in previous post) a shot?

Hi Bo. Yes, 146 km was the correct initial distance.
Yes, the next day, I entered a destination, ABRP calculated the route, when I started to navigate, the distance to destination populated in the trucks instrument cluster, and updated correctly as I drove.
I did not try the BETA.
