2023 Raptor will not start

[Rickc/7c/8]

Need some help. Drive the Raptor last night, but when I went out today it will not start and no power to anything, door locks windows, etc. Key fobs will not work anything. It only has 200miles on it. I know my F-150 would not start once and I had to put the key fob in a hole,

The “hole” is in the armrest under the mat. Not sure if will help.

Thanks for the help. For some reason the batteries were dead. I used a charger and it started after a few minutes. Not sure what that’s all about?

Loose battery connection(s)? Did you test voltage before charging?

 

[Rickc/7c/8]

Almost no viltage was showing up on meter.

Voltage

If you got to connect to Fordapp, check if any faults are listed on there.

Could just be you left lights on? Hopefully you get it sorted.

Your post made me think of this song - so hopefully this little bit of humour helps make your day better.


Your Mercedes Bronco Raptor won't start
Yah that's a crying shame
I guess $90k a year buys nothing but complaints!

Thanks for the info. Lights were not left on. Also, not sure why the second battery did not kick in if the first one was drained. Not sure they are interconnected that way?

My 2023 raptor has 3000 miles and this has happened twice. Dealer replaced battery last week. Will see how it goes

Well that’s not good. Hope it works out and I will let you know on my wife’s, if it does it again.

There has been a rash of bad batteries shipping with new cars. My wife's HEL Sport had a bad battery as well. Replaced it and no issues since.

 

[Fishwrinkle]

Lol the bad batteries have been happening since 21. Ask me how I know? OP hopefully it’s just that simple and good luck

I had to replace the battery in my 21 Scuby only lasted 2 years, but they are known for junk batteries. I also wouldnt put it past the OTA updates because well if it does an update specially on a new bronco, its going to kill the battery over night.

I had a similar problem as I was working on detailing mine. I had the doors open switching the ignition on and off several times as I was working away. When I was finished I just went in the house for the evening and I had a notice on my Ford Pass app that the battery was disconnected to save power. The next day I went in the garage and it was stone dead, not sure why as I assume the battery protection would disconnect if the battery voltage got to a low level, well apparently not.. So I may have left a door open or ignition in the on position were my only possibilities. Just charged the battery and it's been fine ever since.
