Walking into a dark parking lot and trying to the keyfob to open the vehicle only to find out no external or internal lighting is on, is a safety issue. I never said ALL 2025 models are affected. I simply brought up that they are certainly not immune from the problem.
It's the charging system alright. I bought one of those Uplus AGM batteries last Oct and in the last 5 weeks I've had several deep sleep notifications only to find the truck's battery totally dead the next day! Multimeter shows 5.32v. Not going to bother contacting Uplus people, as I've heard you'll have to jump through hoops to get a partial refund. Gonna have to get a replacemnt H4 AGM battery locally. Have the feeling my truck's rediculous charging system will devour the next one, too.
It is a safety issue to you. It is not classified as a safety issue for a vehicle.
I do keep my additional key fob upstairs and bring the other with me at night. I have noticed walking by it will click and activate if the fob is in my pocket. Wondering if people continuously activate the truck by moving their fob.
Look up another thread on this.You need to put the connectors at a specific spot because of monitoring circuitry on the vehicle.
FYI - your truck doesn't "communicate" with the key fob (keyless or non), like back and forth.
It doesn't monitor charging with key off.
Perhaps try saving the battery, it might be usable. My '22 did this with the original battery (3v on inspection), charged it fully, did the BMS reset. Trickle charged every couple of weeks. No issues. I did change it prior to the winter with another flooded, simply for peace of mind, but don't believe it was necessary.
Hi Swag, I have to personally thank you for telling how to get rid of the Hyper blinkers with me using LASFIT LED bulbs. Hyper flashing is finally gone.
