Mine happens with the manufacturer specified battery even after a BMS reset.
Fair enough... worth a try though. Do you know how to set battery parameters through FORscan? I'll search online too...

I see. Can that be done easily via FORscan?

Re: Remote start not working

Master reset in sync is only for the infotainment. If it was only a problem trying to remote start through the app, that might be a thing to try, but it has nothing to do with BMS or the fob remote start. Looks like there is a process for resetting it without OBD, but I can't vouch for it. I will n...

How is the reset performed? Master Reset in Sync?

Re: Remote start not working

I have not been able to isolate the specific voltage threshold. If possible, pop the hood when you park it so you don't have to "wake it up" opening the door before you test. I would check the voltage while it's on and right after shutting off, so you can know how much it's down if/when i...

Re: Remote start not working

There is no possible way remote starting the electric focus needs anywhere close to the amount of power required to actually run the starter of an ICE vehicle. I could well be misinformed about the stock chemistry, but I speak from experience that remote starting and immediately stopping is due to ...

Re: Remote start not working

The Electric was set up to run an AGM instead of flooded cell, since it would not have the normal starter cycle current draw to clear the plates. Flooded cells float at a slightly lower voltage, so a fully charged flooded cell battery will look like an undercharged AGM. They also run at sightly dif...

Re: Need to replace 12v battery

Sorry that wasn't enough to take care of it. I have in the past just wiggled it out...must have been a smaller battery or something; but on the last replacement, just unclipping that front panel was enough for me. I'll have to take a closer look at that loom next time I have the hood open. Hey no w...
