I just had my truck throw an error, it has something to do with 1-pedal drive. It went into limp mode. Second time it did this in three days. Letting it rest 20 minutes, cleared the error and it drove normally.
However the second time it did this I tried a quick power cycle. Bad idea. The truck went into park, and would not shutdown. I was stuck in a bad intersection. I turned off the key, and tried waiting. I also tried to disconnect 12V but I did not have the right tool. Police came and they didn’t either. They called a tow truck.
But I was stuck in park. I hear there is an emergency release to neutral but I cannot figure it out. Does anyone know on a 2023 Lightning?
End of the story was after about 15 minutes, the truck let me power off and power on (reboot) and I was able to drive away, normally. I have a wrench icon I know will go away after a proper shutdown.
But I really want to know how to force put it in neutral if I do need a tow.
TIA
