For sure it’ll got into Deep Sleep but, I agree it will likely fire up just fine for you. If you’ve still concerned and a trickle charger isn’t a possibility, maybe you could install something like this…

No. It’s all buttoned up. All I do is pop the hood and connect the charger near the left front fender.

You voided the warranty when you installed those damping hood lifts. :LOL:

All I do now is pop the hood, plug in the charger and let it go.

I’d keep using this dealer. Considering the current cost of oil, he’s extremely generous. :ROFLMAO:

For me, “deep sleep” is just a nuisance. I’m betting your ST will fire up just fine after two weeks. You just won’t be able to do it from afar.

I recently bought a Noco Genius 1 and that keeps the battery topped off. When Amazon delivers the 10’ extension cable, I will hardwire it to the battery. The Genius is under $30 on Amazon.

Thanks for posting this. I found them on Amazon and I‘m tempted. One thing I wondered about is why they didn’t use something like a toggle bolt for attachment to the hood. That would eliminate the hassle of trying to fish the nut around blindly.

My 2003 Mini Cooper came with these from the factory. :ROFLMAO:

I just found this on FordPass. Is this telling me Sync 3 has been updated (it has not) or simply the vehicle’s FordPass software?

It warms my heart to see so many citizens rush to the officer’s side.

I bought the C1 and am happy with it. I don’t think a brake light that low would do much good. The C1 provides backup and running light (one or the other at a time).

Now you need this. ;) https://www.explorerst.org/threads/what-have-you-done-to-your-explorer-st-today.889/post-71932

What causes these to break?

I had just filled it after my wife’s trip to the mountains. It was 350ish miles of nothing but highways in Eco. So, I suspect the calculation is based on expecting another tankful of 24 mpg.

I was just now poking around under the hood. I’m thinking a connection to the positive at the fuse block (driver’s side) and to a nearby frame bolt.

I read somewhere that connecting the negative directly to the battery takes some part of the vehicle’s monitoring out of the equation and isn’t the preferred method.

For any of you that have hardwired a trickle charger, could you post photos of where you made the two connections?

I also recently bought the Noco Genius 1. Because the ST isn’t driven often and mostly they’re relatively short trips, the battery doesn’t remain fully charged and the vehicle hibernates. I like the idea of maintaining the battery with only a 1 amp charge. So far, the Genius 1 is working...
