Manual Restart Required

[M.R.F.O.R.D.]

Has anyone received this message (Manual Restart Required) when trying to start the truck? I get this message when I try to start the truck after it is off. Could be after couple of minute or a few hours later. The truck starts then bogs down and stall. I have to give it gas to be able to let it run. It bogs down. My auto start stop has not been working for a few months.

I don’t think I’ve seen that from anyone.

The Dealer has change the battery. I have not received this error message since then but still have issues with starting the truck.
When I first start the truck in the morning it have not issue. RPM are at 1500 then goes down after it has been warmed up.

If I stop the truck when it is all warm up. Then try to start it sometimes when starting it bogs down to 500 RPM. When the RPM are low is truck sometime stalls. I have to give it gas to be able to start it. Other times when I start it the RPM are 900 (no issue).

No code was found when they scanned for code.

Almost sounds like when a fuel pump is going bad? Doesn’t make a lot of sense no codes would be being thrown.

Hey I’m having what seems like the exact same issue. Only happens on a warm engine restart and is very intermittent. Had the truck at the local dealership yesterday and now they are contacting an engineer to look into it after the service department was no help. They even said to just get the aftermarket plug in auto-start stop disabler. My response isn’t changing, “it’s a brand new truck with an issue and I’m not about to pay out of pocket for a piece of equipment that you guys could use against me down the road.”

These ford service departments are almost worthless. I started a case with Ford customer support yesterday as well.
