Scheduled Starts Deactivated Due to Inactivity - BS

[miken]

I'm unable to get scheduled starts working. I get an error in FordPass stating they have been disabled as a precaution since I haven't driven the vehicle since my last scheduled start which is NOT the case for me. I drive it daily.

It also continues on stating that if I want to continue using Scheduled Starts, to just go to Vehicle Controls and manually turn them back on. I'm assuming they mean in the FordPass app and not some obscure setting in the truck. I've done that and the problem still continues.

Anyone else see this issue?

Thanks.

I have that on occasion when the vehicle starts on schedule but shuts off before I get in and drive. But I have had no problems with just re-enabling the scheduled starts. I have had to click on the slider for each time schedule to turn it off, then click again to turn it back on.

Earlier versions of Ford Pass app I found that when what you described happened I would delete the scheduled starts from the app and then reload the time again and activate it. Problem went away doing that. That was when I had M-F morning starts. If I turned it off Do it over again.

I'll give that a try then. Thanks.

I tried leaving M-F scheduled starts on while the truck was parked at the airport for a week. After the first one it quit with the same message you got, and once I got home and went back to driving it it all went back to normal.
I agree though that taking the schedule out completely and then putting it back in anew might be the ticket.

Deleted all the entries and put 2 starts in for today. Both worked. Thanks for the help.
