Thanks. This is the exact non-FDRS process I used. No joy - the red battery icon did not ever blink for me.
I've used the process twice on my 2023 Lariat about 1.5 years ago. Once when I started getting excessive drain messages, and once when the battery was replaced. It worked both times for me.

Well, I do wish it would work on my truck. Tried about 20 times in the past 2 days, carefully... the dealership did finally reset the BMS for free for me (I have a good dealer).

Weird. Never heard it didn't work.

It is important to fully charge the battery before doing it also.

I'm curious if the process will work now that the dealer "touched" it. It could be that something wasn't quite right between the modules, and the dealer reset corrected the situation. I'd be tempted to try it again after a nice long drive when I know the battery is fully charged.

We're driving to Kentucky today, so we'll see on arrival...
