Generator Mode: 2022 F-150 PowerBoost

[NickRivait]

Hey,
I have a 2022 Lariat PowerBoost (entry level generator). Every time I start my truck, Pro Power Onboard turns on & sometimes generator mode.
Does anyone know if this affects fuel economy or the hybrid battery?

The onboard controls your plugs in the cabin and will always come on and shouldn’t hurt anything. The generator shouldn’t be on unless you turn it on.

Edit:
I just caught the powerboost part, I’d imagine it’s still the same. Sorry, I didn’t notice that at first

Unless you have a bug, the full ProPower system isn't turning on. You get minor power to interior receptacles (400W?) and that's it. You need to push the button to turn it on fully and get the full output on interior receptacles or have power in the bed. It only affects fuel economy if you have something plugged in drawing electricity.

Anecdotally, mine turns on automatically when I have something plugged into one of the outlets. I think I saw it one other time, but I was playing with Forscan, so that may have been the reason. Other than that it is off.
