Thank you for any and all info on these models.
FordTechMakuloco I have the jump and carry air, great product
I have a 2009 Mercury Mariner that has the high voltage battery dead and since its a ford product i would believe it would have the jump start button but it doesnt any suggestions of how to jump start it properly i have a snapon modis scanner and i dont see anything related to these functions
I have a 2005 Ford escape how do I jump start the hybrid battery pack please help
Hey I done this on the 2005 to 2008 and worked but I have a 2009 and it doesn't have the button to recharge hybrid battery any idea how to do it
I want to thank you for your willingness to share this great video. I have a 2006 Escape that sat motionless for 9 months. I took it to a local Ford Dealership to see if they could diagnose the problem I was having with my engine. They had it for a month and then told me they can't check the engine because the HV battery is no good and needs to be replaced. I asked them to recharge it and was told it can't be done. I watched your video and pushed the magic button one time and it started right up. I will not be taking my cars back to that dealership any time soon. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!
Killer man! My ‘08 has sat for about 18 months. I followed your steps and BOOM! Thank you sir for a GREAT film! VERY HELPFUL BOSS!
Just found your video and tried this as a hail Mary pass to get our 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid to start. Worked like a charm (immediately) and our mechanic learned something new (he'd given up, said he didn't have the right tools for HV work)! THANK YOU!!!
I cannot thank you enough!!! Several failed jump start options, and then a new battery, and still nothing. I had no idea that button even existed. Such a simple, easy fix. THANK YOU!!!! 😁😁😁
Old dog just learned a new trick, as always thanks for the info...AND for paying it forward! You are a man of integrity!
Thanks! ! Saved me from junking my hybrid . Parked it for 3 months came back to dead car . Try ed everything . Had mech quote 800$ repair . Who knew 8min and a push of a button. Thanks I appreciate you sir!!!
I couldn’t believe it! This actually worked and got my Mariner running. I did 4 cycles as you recommended. Thank you so much for this video post.
Thank you so much!! I have a 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid. The battery had died since I left something charging in the cig charger. I charged the battery, but could not get it to start. One click and nothing. But had all the lights. I went down into the inside of the drivers side to find the magic button and did after pulling off a little panel. Reset it 3 times and wah lah! Thank you!! I'm a happy newbie sub! :)
My 2008 Escape sat parked in the side driveway after I bought a new car, the battery died, and even after we replaced it, the car wouldn't start. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! At first it didn't seem like pushing the button did anything, so I just left the charger hooked up to the new battery, and waited a while. Maybe it had to go through some code cycles or something? I don't have a way to check codes. Anyway, about 30 min later, I tried the button again, and when it started flashing, the car started right up. Drove it around a while, and it seems OK. I'm driving it from California to Indiana to gift it to my DGD who will be 16 in July. This was my first ever brand new car, and I have really loved it. Easy to see, easy to drive. I actually like it better than my new Outback, but we needed a lower car to get an elderly family member in and out.
Thank you so much, you're a nice young man.
After my 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid sat idle for five weeks, I had to do this to get it to start. Thanks for the video!
Wanted to thank you I had a customer's house scratching my head cuz it didn't have a starter and they needed a starter replacement this video really helped me out
This was the charm on my '06..local mechanics were spooked by the thought of tearing into Hybrid Fords. Thanks a thousand (or two). And go Cubs!!!
You are a life saver: the secret hidden " jump start " switch was the problem. Within 2 min. It started right up.😀
It worked for me! My father in law gave me an escape if I wanted to fix it. With a push of the button it came back to life. Thank you for this video!!!!
Thank you!!! This happened to me 2 months ago and I towed my car to dealership and charged me hundreds! And after 2 months, my car won't start again, luckily I found this video!! You saved me!
Did it keep dying on you every couple of months after that?
@@KM-pm6qeyes! As long as I leave the car in the garage over one week, it won't start. But now I know this trick. Saves thousands of dollars!
@@lingzhang386 thanks for your reply! From now on, I won’t try to hypermile the last little bit of EV mode on my home. I’ll try to leave a little charge in case I don’t drive for a while.
I assume after you jump start the HV battery, you need to drive the car for an hour or so to charge it up fully. Are you doing that after jump starts also?
@@KM-pm6qe no need to jump start, just hit the secret button, and wait one minute, then you can start the car and drive to anywhere you want.
Dude you saved my Bacon today. My 08 has been sitting a big and would not start. I was bummed at the thought of having it towed 30 miles to the only guy trust.
Got it running thank you!!!!
That was it!!! Thanks so much for the tip! Went on vacation and the car sat for 11 days. Without your video it would be on the way to the shop right now! Thanks so much. More videso for ford escape hybrids are always welcome. Would love to see something about replacing the batteries in the back.
Thanks for the video. I had a scan tool that didn't have any past or current or possible future maintenance indicated. The dash readout had "Brake For Safety", and the amber wrench icon. Like others, my 08 hybrid had sat for a month with cold nights down to 12 degrees. Key on, no crank. 12 volt batt was OK at 12.3 v. It turns out that I had to go through more than one of
the push-button charge cycles. Around 6:45, you said it may take maybe four times of the eight minute cycles. That was what was needed for my low traction battery. However, the car's owner manual indicated to wait the extra two minutes of the flashing LED light to allow the 12v-to-300v charging inverter to cool down between cycles before pushing the button again. With the key off, I pushed the button four times over a one hour period, and that was the secret to start my Escape. With the cold weather, I also got a "low tire" annunciator. All four tires were too low. After fluffing them up, no more problems. Thanks again for the vid.
this video rocked...have a neighbor that had this issue.went and viewed Hybrid batt. voltage and jumped per video and worked great!!!!! Thanks
i would really like a video on how you got to such a high level of proficency ,such an elite mechanic , so to speak. maybe milestones that got you to such an elite mechanic
You saved my life man. Stuck out here on Lake Tahoe on Labor Day. All mechanics are closed. THANK YOU!
Than You! Worked like a charm on my 2008. Just pressed the button on the side, waited 2 mins and it started right up.
I cannot thank you enough for posting this video! It blows me away that not a single mechanic I spoke to about the car didn't mention to try this before the expense of replacing the battery. If you own a Mazda Tribute Hybrid...please try this if your car has been sitting before you go through the expense of replacing the hybrid battery! Thank you aganin!
Thank you so much for your videos on hybrids. I run a 2011 Fusion Hybrid with 488,000 km's and still runs great. I can't find any info on a fusion hybrid having a magic button like these escapes do. Luckily I haven't had any problems like this. Keep up the great videos and thanks for helping so many thousands of people.
The Ford escapes and Mercury Mariners have them up until I believe 2008 but they eliminated the button after that. I've never heard of a Fusion having one.
Left our 2k8 Escape for a month to put 7k miles on our Powerboost towing/powering a trailer to see the USA. Came back and Escape wouldn't start. Put the flat battery on the Noco overnight; had accessory power but no crank. Never suspected this button (i'm sure its in the owners manual). Should be OK after a couple cycles. You need a "buy me a coffee" button. Between this and the air blend door replacement, you've been such a valuable resource for my family.
Seriously this secret button is the best hack ever! Thank you so much. Saves me every time I go away and my 2008 sits around.
What's awesome about this is the explanation for how the button works. I had gotten my 06 escape started before using the button which made me think of it as a breaker reset. Knowing that it needs 8 minutes to actually recharge the battery isn't something I'd ever figure out poking at it like a monkey. Thanks so much
I don’t know how many times you have saved my bacon over the years with different Fords that I have owned. Just happened on my daughters 2008 Ford Escape, and it solved our starting problem. If you ever make it to Utah, let me know, I’m buying lunch. Thx bro!
Great video. I have a 2009 and there is no button for that. What are you supposed to do. Two dealerships advised to replace the battery and did not know of a charger for it
I wanted to thank you, this worked for me. I have a 2008 Murcury Mariner. I had to change my ignition switch too.
Thank you so much!!! I've been struggling to figure out what the hell is wrong with my 2006 for months now. Eight minutes and all problems solved. My wife thinks I'm a genius 😂😉 all credit goes to you tho bro. ✌️
I suspect you are a teacher..at heart. Really appreciate the work and the videos.
would this also cause the dash to say "stop safely now" or is that an entirely different issue?
This totally worked on my 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid... Thank you so much, sir
customer car sit 6 months---followed you tip--(with Power Supply at 13.7----3 times recharge --did it---THANX SOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!
Thank god I follow this channel. This just saved me a ton of heart ache just now.
Videos have been great I been watching them since I got my hybrid 2 years ago, tho I do have some questions cause I’m having issues with mine , and the codes are saying it’s fine
Hey man. GREAT VIDS!!
i have an 08 escape hybrid....when i start it, rpm goes to about 800-1000 and fluctuates back and forth..800...1000....800...1000 up and down for about 10seconds than shuts off and says STOP SAFELY NOW...tried the jump start button few times but still same....aby idea?? Triangle and wrench after shut off...ANY HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED!
Thank you so much for this video
I knew I needed a new battery especially after leaving my car for a Vegas week trip. Come b and replaced the battery and still was no good. Googled for everything that could possibly bring new life to my car and found this. You sir just saved me a trip to the mechanic and a lot of $ and time
My 12v batter in front was dead so I bought a new battery. Do I still need to press the button once I put the new battery in the car?
Awesome thank you very much for the video this just saved my dad from scrapping a car for $75 when it was running and driving just fine!
Hi, appreciate you sharing this information that has helped others. My 2006 Escape Hybrid has the jump start button, but does not light up when pushed and doesn't lock in place either, button just pops back out. Hooked up jumpers to recharge battery still no power light from button, tried pushing key switch in but no crank still. I followed your instruction on removing key during the process but still no crank after trying to hold button in manually. Is my button powered by battery and how can I trace or troubleshoot it. Thanks again.
I have the same issue same year any luck please let me know thanks
Im just guessing here, but I am a DIY Dodge & Mercedes Tech.
He said it's crucial that the underhood battery be fully charged - thats the only way that it has power enough to jump sufficient watts to the larger High Voltage drive battery pack.
So, is it possible your underhood (standard) 12v battery is weak - not charged ?
That'd be my educated guess.
FWIW, a fully charged 12volt battery needs to show 12.6 or12.7 volts resting & hold firm when a load is applied.
If it dumps below 12v when load is applied, it's weak & needs recharged or replaced.
Check it's voltage static (nothing on in car at all) verify it's 12.5 v +.
Then have helper push that 'recharge the HV pack' button while you watch your voltmeter on the underhood battery.
Once the load hits it, if it falls anybit below 12v, it's weak & requires recharge or replacement.
Once done, this procedure here SHOULD work, unless car has other damage to wiring or that switch itself.
Hope this helps - God bless - David
Thanks for the video. What about a 2009? What would you do for this? How to charge the It get it to start? Thanks
hello did you ever figure out about 2009 ? i have the same one and I can't find that jump start button
They discontinued the button starting 2009.
Just send this video to my car mechanic who replaced the hybrid battery and the new pre-owned battery was low of charge. He insisted the 2008 2009 model has no jumpstart button.
Super video, can you share what Software you use and where to purchase this?
What software are you using for plug in diags on your laptop? I just had this happen to my 2008 Escape. Found your video after I had it toed to my dealer and they did the jump start. thanks... is there a daig to show life of hybrid battery ? like % of battery cells are good?
You just saved me a trip to the mechanic!! I did the reset and started the car, yet now the check engine light is on. Is that just because I need to reset the computer? Please help! Thanks
Ur the man 👨 thanks so much for sharing this with us , God will keep giving u the knowledge to keep on doing this my friend , and God bless
You have saved my Ford Escape again.. thanks so much
What scan tool are you using on your laptop and where can I get it? Thank you for your assistance.
Worked like a charm on my 08"...Thank you sir for sharing!!
I have a 2006 ford escape hybrid. What do you need to do diagnostics like you did. My obd2 will not read anything with the hybrid module.
I have a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and I think I need to replace the Hybrid Battery. If it sits for two days or more it will not start without using the jump start button. Keep getting P0A1F Battery Energy Control Module fault. Do you have any recommendations on how I should proceed, whether to take it into a shop for a more detailed inspection or where to get a new/refurbished Hybrid Battery? Thanks..
YOU SAVED MY LIFE!! lol. Omg I’m so ecstatic right now! I thought my mercury mariner hybrid was toast! Feel like a bad ass I fixed it
How is the transmission on yours? Mine does really strange stuff.
Hey I want to thank you so much for theses video you save me a lot of time and stress anytime I'm dealing with a Ford I always run to your page you are a true blessing❤
Thank goodness for the content. Helped me rescue a 2008 Hybrid that had sat too long. I saw a different video posted on the 2009 Escape Hybrid and while the wire loom was still there in the back at the battery pack Ford didn’t have a way to charge the pack from the 12V so that person soldered a rear pack battery charger. Nice hack.
Hybrid battery pack also need rebalancing as they age. Do you have a method for that?
hello i have a 2012 ford escape 4 cylinder (not hybrid). My father change my spark plugs about a month ago. The transmission was drained n change about 2weeks ago ( didnt know we used the wrong one until i started your videos thnx for the tip) Tranmission was leaking so he tightened it up last week and washed the engine with low pressure water hose at home. Now the car wont start we have changed the starter the battery and the ignition switch still no crank no start. Everything in the panel comes on fine no dashes. Alternator seems to be working correctly. If my father goes under the car it will crank and start with no problems. What could be the issue? Prehaps change the ignition itself, reprogram my key. I'm not sure. Btw all other fluids were changed bu Ford over 3 mons ago and the oil was changed 3 days at Ford before my dad had drained the transmission.
I parked my 2007 for six months, really hope I can use this technique when I came back to US.
I followed your procedure for my 2006 and it started up but I notice that it won't go into EV mode. Seems like it's always in gas mode. Any suggestions. Vehicle has approximately 142,000 miles
You ever figure out why ev mode no longer kicked in and the fix?
Need a little help, but first i want to tell you that your videos are very informative and my first choice for ford vehicles. My son recently bought a 2006 Ford escape hybrid model. Had very similar sounds/action as this video but the new 12v battery I installed did not do the trick. I had it towed to the dealer and they quickly called and said it was the hybrid battery and would cost 13000 to fix. yep 13k battery alone was 11k. Need a little help with a replacement battery, i can install it myself...i have tools and a desire of not getting racked over coals. lol i also looked at your fuel pump problem and my fuel pump was not tampered and the dealer said all the codes lead them to the battery. HELPPPPPP please thanks
Using the jump start button in the foot well didn't charge it enough to start it?
my 07 Escape Hybrid is pushing 80k mi and I'm currently broke, commuting 60 mi a day to/from EMT school, and terrified that I won't be able to complete it if the battery dies.. does this procedure have to be done every time to get it running again? Please let me know so I can prepare, thank you for the video
So I have a 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid that displays a P0A1F code and starts after pressing the hybrid jump start button but then shuts immediately off. Does that code indicate the hybrid battery is low or that there is another issue. I’m trying to decide if I should take it to the Ford dealer for a diagnosis or if I should just send it to the junk yard because the cost of replacing the hybrid battery with a remanufactured on seems to be $2-6k which is far more than what it’s worth since it has about 227k miles
TY Sir for sharing this info.!! We just had this condition happen on a 2008 Mariner Hybrid that sat for several weeks. She’s back up and running now, tho’! Thx again!!
Procedure worked great to start my dead 06 FEH hybrid battery. Quick question though. Using FORScan the "LOS_HV YES Limited Operating Mode Due To High Voltage Battery" is displayed. Should LOS_HV be a YES? Wondering if this is why the CVT seems to have very little power sometimes. thank you.
A couple weeks ago the battery on my 08 FEH died from leaving the key on the ON position too long while changing brake pads. I jump started it like you would any other vehicle I used a fully charged battery and jump start cables. My FEH started fine and it seems to be okay. Could I have messed something up by jump starting it like that?
HELP! I have a quick question...
I have a 2008 FEH AWD and will probably be living out of it this winter until I can land a decent job. For the past couple of nights I have left the car running all night long and set the heater to 68 degrees. The car will cycle off and on every 3-4 minutes all night. If I do this all night, every night this winter, is it going to be detrimental to the engine, batteries (12v and HV), or other systems?
Thanks for your expert opinion on this!
great info. but I struggle with hybrid stuff. wth internal jump pack, engine not starting etc. correct me if I'm wrong, the hybrid batteries (typically in the back sits by the rear axle) that delivers jump to traditional battery to assist to start?
Thanks for this video what DTC software did you use I would like to buy that software and the connector
I tried starting my car after about two cycles and no go. I tried again after four cycles but still nothing. I can't remember it was the 5th or 6th cycle but the car started right up and hasn't given me any problems since in the last 2 months! I can't imagine how much money this saved me in repairs.
I love how you used a Dell computer for this (and on a hybrid) instead of a $40,000 Snap On Over 9000 Edition dealer level scanner.
+David McClelland I actually run the Ford IDS software and VCM. It's the same scanner as we used at the Ford dealer. You don't need much else if you know what you are doing.
FordTechMakuloco I was going to ask what software or program that you used.
I have an 08 hybrid but i dont seem to have either button. I do see a wire/connector behind the metal framing where the big black button is on your video. If memory serves me right, the wires are purple and orange. Could this be for the button and it was removed for some reason?
Well, I never saw a light on the "magic button" but sure enough after pressing it and waiting 10 mins, the car started! Thanks for the tip. Pretty sure we'll be avoiding hybrid vehicles in the future. Not worth the hassle.
I bought the hybrid also, thinking awesome,,,,,,, but it's more trouble than anything
In the 2009 escapes i see they eliminated the jump start switches. Am i able to do the same procedure via the scan tool? Or is it time to ship it to the dealer? Great video by the way. Subscribed
Skip the dealer and go right to a hybrid shop. The dealers don't have the hybrid charger either.
FordTechMakuloco thanks!
If the vehicle is taken to a "hybrid shop", what exactly will they do to fix this problem? I have the exact same issue with a 2009 and used the jump start switch to recharge the system.. surely, there must be a way to do the same on the newer escapes?
literally doing this right now thanks for the video just found the hvb low was searching how to charge. thanks man
Awesome!
Help. Ok when I push the button nothing is flashing
Great video! Is there a procedure for the 2009 later ford escape hybrids?
Diddo. If the 2009 high voltage battery is the same as the 2005-2008, what is required to install the wiring, switch and additional transformer(?) to be able to charge the high voltage battery from the 12v battery?
i got a 2010 ford fusion hybrid my service advancetrac came on I changed the two front wheel sensors n my brake booster solenoid n still has the service advancetrac light on do I have to take it to ford for reprogram?
What causes this to happen? Does it mean that the battery pack is failing?
Thanks
I had to push the restart button several times, but it finally cranked over. Ive noticed that the HV Battery is only at half capacity now. Will the HV Battery re-charge itself by simply driving it everyday or do I have to keep pushing the restart button to get it up to full capacity?
What do you use for a computer scan tool?
So does it charge the large battery from the small?
Hi I have the same thing going on with my car it’s a 2009 Cadillac Escalade hybrid does it have the same button somewhere or is there a way for me to charge the hybrid battery ? Thank you appreciate it
Slightly unrelated question 2008 hybrid 4wd/awd but not sure if any power is going to rear wheels. How do I check the 4wd system to make sure it's working properly? Already had front end up, drive with no throttle right tire rotates, left tire rotates under power
I have an ‘07 escape hybrid. Once a day my wrench light pops on. I can stop and restart it and the wrench goes away. When i tell it to do a system check after it checks the oil life it says service soon and the rest of the system says ok. When i bought it, the person had just changed the oil. Assuming he used synthetic oil, it only has 6k miles on the oil. I checked the oil. Level is fine and color is ok, not bad not clearish. Any ideas about the wrench light comin on? Think i’m gonna go ahead and change the oil and filter but saw this vid and figured i would ask you about it.
And thank you for doing these vids. Proves there are still good people left in the world that aren’t trying to rip people off. You could have easily sat there for 3 or 4 hours piddling with it then charged them. You da man!
One charge vs Four charges?
My 2008 FEH has the SSN alert, check engine light and wrench light.
POA1F code.
Says Battery Energy Control Module.
When I do the 8 minute cycle, it works like a charm as usual, but it dies again after a few weeks and I have to repeat the 8 min process again.
This makes my FEH basically unreliable.
I always do the charge with another car hooked up to my battery with jumper cables. Then I drive it around for more? Charge.
If I don’t drive it around after the charge, it won’t start the next day.
My question: Would charging it by the 8min button process 3-4 time be much more beneficial than one charge?
And, secondary:
Is there a simple way I can I find how much the hybrid battery is charged?
I have a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid by removing the catlytic converters do y’all think it would instantly affect the truck’s performance since it’s an electric hubrid??? thank you
Do you have any content on low voltage issues for Ford escape hybrids? Specifically the 2008?
I press the button, key off and out, and it does absolutely nothing? 12V battery is up and on charge. I get no response from the jump start button. Any thoughts? Also, curious which software you are using? Thanks :-)
I love you !!!!
Thanks a lot.
Was about to take it to the shop and probably get charged $300 just to press a button.
Thank you! I have a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid that would power on but not start. I followed your instructions and it worked!
(I knew it was a battery issue because at my last oil change they told me the battery wants up to par for the weather any more.)
If the 2009 high voltage battery is the same as the 2005-2008, what is required to install the wiring, switch and additional transformer(?) to be able to charge the high voltage battery from the 12v battery? Seems like OEM parts should work? This is a big miss on Fords part. Any idea why they deleted this feature in 2009?
That is great information Thank you for what you do and sharing this knowledge
Great video thanks a lot
Can you tell me what is starter motor in this hybrid ?transmision?
Generator?
Any way direct crank it from any relays?
Thanks
Yep, it's in the transmission.
Is this also the same for the 2008 Mercury Mariner?
I have a 2009 Mercury Mariner Hybrid that has the high voltage battery dead and since its a ford product i would believe it would have the jump start button but it doesn't any suggestions of how to jump start it properly?
You must replace the HV battery or have it charged by a Hybrid specialist.
Great video and advice, I took the car to three different mechanics all of them said needs a new hybrid battery coding me about 10K, With this video I was able to start the car and drive it with no problem. But after driving around for some time the car will still tell me a stop safely. I then shut the engine off for five seconds turn it back on and drive
Any suggestions on what is possibly going on also the AC compressor is shot no AC for over a year now, could that be causing hybrid battery to overheat therefore in the car telling me to pull over?
Hey what did you figure out I’m having similar issues with a 06 hybrid
@@insidebeauty3391 same I have a 2007 Ford escape hybrid I was driving on the highway and the red triangle light with the ! Came on and the car told me to pull to the side after 10 minutes I turned the car off waited a couple minutes and turned it back on! Today I drove it without any problems. I still don't know why this happened now I'm a little nervous.
I’m going to try this on my 2008 escape hybrid. Thank you soooooooo much!
This video saved me lots of time and money. Thank you very much.
great help! the magic button saved my life too! thanks a lot
the video was great, my jump start button flashes slowly, new battery and 14 volts, any ideas
@FordTechMakuloco Is there a similar remedy for the 2009? I have a "Safely Park Now" message after not driving the car for 3 weeks and the internet tells me that Ford removed this feature in the 2009 model year. Thank you for any help
@FordTechMakuloco
We have a 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid
Symptoms:
The engine revved up super high it belched out a cloud of white smoke then the engine shut off while going uphill on the freeway. I waited 20 minutes later the car started up and is working fine since. Codes were cleared already. The car tends to rev at higher speeds while on the freeway.
Codes:
P0562 System Voltage Low
P10AC Hybrid Powertrain Control Module
Do I need service? Whats going on?
Ralph
Thanks
