HELP: please, most electric functions are not working

[2023EGM1]

Please your help, my car ran out of battery during a full wrap and now the engine is running, but many systems don’t work (eg. dashes, windows, turning lights, magneride). What should I look for?

Thanks!

Your car was wrapped and not it behaves this way? What does the shop that performed the wrap have to say?

They likely unplugged somethings... not much else makes sense.

The battery management system shut everything down. Park the car, perform the BMS reset procedure, lock the doors with the remote, and put it on a charger for a minimum of 8 hours.

OP - to expand on Evolvd's post - in some newer cars, especially late model Fords, there are battery management systems that monitor the state of battery charge, and when battery voltage drops below certain thresholds, electronic accessories will start to shut off/not function. They're not broken, this is the system trying to save the battery voltage for mandatory modules and other functions. Perform the BMS reset (look in this forum for threads on BMS reset) and you should be ok, things should start to come back to life. The wrap shop probably left the ignition in ON position and the batt got low on voltage.

Thanks very much! I disconnected and reconnected the battery, performed BMS and it woke up. Cheers

You'll do yourself a huge favor if you put your battery on a charger to get a full charge. Simply operating the car will not really get it a good, complete charge.

Will do, thanks.

2 of my favorite colors. That Eruption would be hard to cover-up for me.

Glad you got it fixed. That green is awesome, not sure I would have covered that up either.

The wrap…

What did a total wrap cost if you don’t mind the ask? What maintenance is involved with keeping it shiny?

The grey wrap looks great, but the original green is pretty marvelous, too. Probably made your car very recognizable. I once had a bright yellow Eclipse, which I loved - color and everything. However, I did get tired of people telling me they saw me everywhere... I felt like I couldn't go anywhere without being spotted! Don't know if you had that issue, but if you did, I can totally understand the color change. Or, maybe you just like changing things up... either way, cool car!
