Not to worry. The car will operate in normal hybrid mode. Cheers

First I've heard of the problem. I would tend to suspect a clogged drain of some sort, e.g. from AC evaporator or vent duct work.

Keyfree / Keyless touch not working?
Bill-N replied to theasset's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start
I haven't experienced this particular issue, but a failing 12V battery can cause many weird problems. In my case, for example, back-up warning sensors failed. Just a thought. -

Thanks for finding a reasonable replacement. Knowing the group number will be a big help. Also, don't forget to reset the battery age monitor/charging scheme. Something like hold the brake pedal down, rub your belly 10 times, or some such. Search the forum for specifics. Cheers.

FYI, there is no torque converter in the C-Max.

Sounds like the 12V battery may be on its last legs.

Help needed with a no start and DTC
Bill-N replied to powerstroke cowboy's topic in 2013 Ford C-MAX Hybrid
The C-Max engine is started by one of the two 450V electric motors housed inside the transmission. There is no "traditional" mounted-to-the-bellhousing starter motor. -
Ford C-Max 2013 Hybrid (not the plug-in)
Bill-N replied to retiredtraveler's topic in Forum Suggestions and Help
Also, reverse wouldn't work as it is solely electric. -
Is this not simply the engine running? Whether or not the engine runs at start-up is (mainly) a function of the HVB (high-voltage battery) state of charge. So if the HVB needs charging when the car is started, the engine will start so it can recharge the HVB.

Shifter moved and clicks but won’t go in gear
Bill-N replied to Ashlier's topic in Forum Suggestions and Help
Hopefully the cable has broken or merely become disconnected. It happened to me following transmission replacement years ago. Fix was done by Ford so I have no idea how to DIY. Perhaps someone with the shop manual can help.
