Ok, so been having a small issue for a couple weeks since I left truck at airport for 8 days while in Mexico.

Landed back home, went to remote start truck and was in Deep Sleep mode on Fordpass.
Ok, went out, all inside was dead. Truck started, let warm up for 10-15 minutes. Drove home, no radio/XM.
Next day, remote start in garage, still Deep Sleep.
Ok, go out and start.
Its randomly had that on app, or went out to truck and all interior lights were out, radio dark.
Figured, great, need a new battery.

So had an appt with dealer, and I saw a Youtube video, about resetting the BMS (battery monitoring system)
Get in truck, turn key on, don't start.
Flash bright 5 times, hit brake pedal 3 times, and BMS will reset.

BOOM...fixed al issues. Remote app works, and all interior lights work like tey should.
For those having issues, try this first!!!

This sort of is happening with my truck, the last few weeks the greeting lights and interior lights aren't working then some days they do.

I wonder how many other hidden "Easter Eggs" there are in these trucks? I can see inadvertently stumbling upon the wrong combination and the truck self-destructs. ☢

Well, I could see a "passenger eject" being handy, and rocket launchers would be waaay cool!

You mean you haven’t found the passenger eject combo? It’s awesome! Just wait until you find the rear passenger eject feature. Life changing. :LOL:

Oooh I found that one, but it appears to be limited to the 2019 model year.

My '22 Raptor has had a similar problem. Battery randomly discharged on 12/22 and I had to charge it. Then, last night at 12:37am (per LoJack), it discharged again. This time, it was only in Deep Sleep so I was able to start it.

I've been driving this truck 30-50 miles a day except maybe one day over the last 2 weeks.

I'll try this and see if my problems go away (or if I have a crappy battery -- which may be the case since this truck sat in a lot in Dearborn for about 10 weeks).

I’ve had battery issues a couple of times this year from about May/June.
Start/Stop quit working and random ”Deep Sleeps”. No interior lights or welcome screens.
Ford guys looked at it, charged it, and sent me off for more exciting things.

Started acting up again in October, and by the the time December entered the scene, it was just going nuts.

This thing was going directly into a coma as soon as I shut it off.
Windows started doing whateverthehell they wanted to do do. Not closing all the way, not opening all the way, bounce back all the way to full open.

Back to the Ford store again. Battery failed a load test And was replaced.
been about 3 weeks now and all seems well, but no point in counting chickens yet.

How has things been since the battery replacement? Went outside this morning and no courtesy lights or interior...apparently it was in sleep mode. I let it warm up a while and tested it again an no sleep mode and the lights all worked. Plan on putting the battery on a charger this weekend. My wife only drives a couple minutes to work and home each day so not sure if this helping cause the issue.

All has been good since the battery replacement.
Almost too good. That auto start/stop is annoying to me, but it is a first warning something is amiss. Besides, if equipped with it, it should work.
Little short trips are doing no favors.
My commute is about 20mi with only a couple of stop signs a lights, and at speeds between 50-70. That was not keeping the old battery up to proper charge.
But longer trips would charge it.
Im kinda rough on the battery, it spends 1-1/2 to 2 hours daily on accessory.
I like to read and listen to stereo before actually going into my building.
