Sleep mode

[awefulspeller]

I noticed my FFE has been put into sleep mode. I haven't drive or touched the car in a couple weeks. Anyone know anything about it???

That's a new one! I figured your 12V would be dead after a few weeks.

I've seen that message when I went on a trip for a couple weeks. I think after a week or so the car goes to sleep to prevent the TCU from killing the battery.

I wonder if this sleep function was the firmware "fix" for 12V issues that they released back in 2015.

I've also seen that message in my C-Max. It doesn't wake back up until you touch the door handle (or use the key fob to unlock the doors).

My 2016 did that after being idle for 4+days. Wakes up when you open the door.
