[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1234572, member: 21926"] First off, thank God all the first model year bugs have been worked out :challenge: 2nd, I’m not so sure the battery is responsible for the climate control symptom and the inability to shift into 4x with 2h flashing on the dash. I don’t know the threshold for auto stop/start, but I’ve washed the truck with my stereo playing, to the tune of probably somewhere north of 100 minutes. Next drive, auto stop start didn’t function due to charge for probably ... 10 miles / 15 minutes. Then back to normal. I’ve never seen anything like you described and I’ve washed off a lot of mud :-) Once the truck is started, where is it getting electrical power from? If the battery is discharged, how does the truck manage to start? Somehow, the truck with the low battery charge is managing to turn over the high compression, twin turbo 6 and spark ignition, so a dead or discharged battery seems less likely to me. Loose ground or connection somewhere in the electrical charge circuit? maybe, but I suspect something else entirely. I suspect something vague, that although I’m qualified to expound upon, thanks to my Wile E. Coyote school for Automotive Engineering Degree, I won’t ruin the surprise the Stealership has in store for you. I say take it in to service. [/QUOTE]
