    MKZ Hybrid 12v Battery Discharge

    ScanGauge sez they agree with me.... it's doubtful that the devise caused the module to stay on but I could sent the ScanGauge back to them so they could check it out. I've decided NOT to do that ...I just removed it from the car and will just wait and see what happens. Been a couple of weeks...

    MKZ Hybrid 12v Battery Discharge

    Well, I got the car back and they say they "fixed" it but I don't know. They claim that ScanGauge that I have had in the car that plugs into the OBD port is "turning on the module that runs the data port (OBD) which in turn runs the battery down if not started in whatever time". It's hard to...

What's happening is after the car is turned off one (or more) of the module's are turning themselves "on" for some period of time then...

    MKZ Hybrid 12v Battery Discharge

    I STILL have the battery discharge issue. If I have a few cloudy days it'll discharge below the starting voltage. Have to drag out the charger and let it charge for 4 hour minimum. I looking to trade it for something else and I too won't be looking at Lincoln's either. As Bill sez I won't be...

    WOW

    No, we haven't gone anywhere but local. After COVID we just haven't gone anywhere...not even up to the old homestead village in NY. We got so used to being alone and have been lucky enough to avoid getting the China Virus that we just see members of our ever growing family. We do still see our...

    MKZ Hybrid 12v Battery Discharge

    No chance of being at Carlisle. Big hint to keep these FoMoCo vehicles to shut off the Keep Alive function is to hit the lock button on the FOB twice so the horn beeps. Turns off that Keep Alive thingee in just a minute or two instead of a hour or so.

    Latest update on the battery issue. No more issues ! I did purchase one of those small Solar Chargers and set it in the back window shelf. It keeps the battery up to snuff while sitting in the driveway. Have used one in the F250 for an number of years as I don't drive it enough. I have let it...
