  1. So better safe than sorry. Turned Auto S/S back on in ForScan and will manually shut it as needed. Probably better leaving BMS on so I don's screw anything else up.
  2. From what I've read, I'm not 100% sure the BMS is disabled but the risk was only the potential of over charging the battery when the BMS was disabled. I'll monitor the battery SOC over time and see if there's been any bad effects but I don't expect to have any problems. There is supposed to be a PCM module to turn off AS/S. I might look into that.
  3. Dealer tested 4 year old battery that came with my used 2020 SEL which I purchased in July. Tech agreed battery was toast. No charge for diagnostic. No charge for new battery installation. Charged me $10 over list for a new battery with a 3 year warranty. Reset BMS. All is good. Got home and disabled Auto start/stop with ForScan. Life moves on......
  4. I'm gonna let the dealer figure it out. That's what the extended warranty is for. But at least I have a diagnostic clue before they get their hands on it.
  5. After driving all day, battery SOC is up to 70% and auto stop/start just started working again. Wasn't earlier at 66%. Guess 70% is the threshold.
  6. I changed my fuel economy display on the IPC with FORScan when I first got the car to this, so I don't see the messages like you do.
  7. 2020 SEL with 33k miles purchased in July. Auto start/stop stopped working. Is 66% battery SOC probably the reason? No DTC found in FORScan. All switches set properly to on. BCM reset done with no change.
  8. Pleased to say everything I changed using FORScan today works perfectly. Now have: Bambi fog light mod where fog lights stay on simultaneously with high beams; Extended turn signal to 5 blinks from factory setting of 3, for lane changing; Global window up using key fob (already came stock using fob for opening front windows); and Navigation safety off while driving. No more warning when it doesn't sense a passenger in the passenger seat.
  9. For those of you who have done FORScan mods....downloaded the software and license and just ordered the OBDLink EX which should arrive Tuesday. All the videos I've watched say to turn on the ignition without starting the car. But I have keyless ignition/fob in my 2020 SEL. So do I just push the "Start/Stop" button? Will be doing: Bambi foglight mod Extend turn signal to 5 blinks for lane changing Global window up (already does it down) Navigation safety off while driving (if possible)
  10. Just got this car and learning about it. 3rd brake light under rear spoiler lights up in the middle but not in the ends. Is this correct for my 2020 SEL? Thanks!
  11. Thanks for letting me join. I bought a 2020 SEL this week and want to add an OEM glove box light like the Titanium has. They have different door dampening levers; mine doesn’t have the built in micro switch. I found a combo wiring harness and microswitch one on EBay. Can’t figure out how to get power to it, so haven’t bought it yet. Opened my glove box and can’t find anything to plug the gray end of the EBay unit into. Ebay one has a female end. Can't find a male end anywhere behind the glove box. If anyone has done this change or has a Titanium and wouldn’t mind taking a picture of where the glove box light plugs into, it would be most appreciated. Pictures of the one I want to buy from eBay photos below:
