Thanks for the tutorial video. At least I now know how to hookp up the neg clamp of my trickle charger to the accessory plate of the negative battery terminal.
My initial thought was also a weak battery issue. I came to this conclusion when my engine stop feature, when stopped at a red light no longer worked. I checked the voltage output after overnight parking and it shows between 11.8 - 11.9 volt charge. Once the ignition is on and engine running...
Has anyone ever seen the following message on the Infotainment Screen: "Please turn ignition off or start your engine"? As of late my infotainment screen has this message posted after the truck was parked with ignition off for 1 hour or more!

Slide 4-fingers underneath the mat, and from the side of the mat towards the center of the button while holding the center-button down with your thumb and lift up at an angle. Repeat this for the second button.
Yes, I have. In fact this morning after driving for approximately 5 miles, visit the Gym. As I returned to the truck this message appeared, even though everything was turned off. Once I arrived back home I measured the voltage output and the meter confirmed 12.7 Volt. I have also noticed that...
