After update screen layout totally FUBAR

[The Weatherman]

This is what my ‘23 came with. Is that different from what the ‘22s had? I now have the interface with the home icon instead of the truck.

No that is what the 22’s came with prior to the GUI update.

I recall a few folk who made the dealer apply any updates before they took delivery. That's why I mentioned it. I didn't mean to imply that it was common practice.

Understood. I posted that for "expectation management" reasons. There are a lot of folks that operate under the assumption that they will be buying a vehicle with all updates performed....and some salespeople even tell them that, and then I run their VIN...and...well, you know.

I did the update and now my GOM thinks I am towing a trailer. At 80%, the graph shows 80%. I have the ER battery. The GOM shows about 150 after declaring it is adjusting because of a trailer. I don’t even have a draw bar in the truck’s receiver.

Did you pull up the towing app and tell it you don’t have a trailer? That may “unconfuse” it.

I will try that tomorrow.

Do you mean to push the towing button near the start button? I haven‘t towed anything in a week but maybe I pushed it while fumbling for the start button.

No - what trim level do you have? I keep forgetting not everyone has the Sync 4A system.

Tap the “Home” button on the screen and then “Towing”. Then select ”No Active Trailer.”

Do you have an illuminated trailer hitch plug?

 

[Bwanapete]

Maquis, I just did what you said, and all is well. Thank You.

And Taxman Hog, no I have never had a lighted plug in my hitch receiver. your suggestion is appreciated, and if I did have one, that could be the answer. I can tell you though that the other day I was moving a trailer around, using the backup assist feature. I probably wouldn’t have bothered to plug in the lights but the backup assist worked.
