Maverick wont start... Has power.

[flstsi52]

Just had the airbag recall done on Tuesday. Drove and started fine Wed, Thurs, Fri and Saturday morning. Go to start it Saturday afternoon and i turn the key and get nothing. After i try and start, a bunch of faults start popping up on the screen. I have 12.40 volts at the battery. Posting a link to the faults it throws. Anyone else had this issue?

Did dealer find a solution? What was the fix.

You seem to have the exact same problem as me, mine behaves the same and is now at the dealership, won't hear about it until monday. Only difference is mine hasn't had the airbag recall done, so it might be something else.

How old is your truck? Your mileage is quite close to mine as well.

What fixed the problem

The dealership replaced the factory stock flooded-cell battery, which apparently was defective, with an AGM battery under warranty. It is my understanding that ecoboosts delivered from mid 2022 onwards have the AGM batt from the factory.

When the dealer did my airbag recall, a wire was pinched when installing the interior plastics. Dealer fixed the wire(s) and the truck started up normally.

I am having a similar issue... I bought my lariat EB on december 2024 it's a 2023 model...it has AGM battery. Could this also be the pinched wire issue?

It's possible. If you are still under warranty I would have the dealership check it out.
