Climate Start Failed - Error Message

[roddiaz1]

So, old man winter is here in earnest, and I can’t get my climate started remotely.
Problem seems to have started last week around the time that Ford Pass App 5.9 was issued.
Interestingly, I can lock and unlock, so it is NOT a connectivity issue. When I depress the fan-icon button, I get a spinning response and the vehicle will flash its lights twice and honk, but it never gets to the Power On status and cycle the climate controls.
This is what the app shows:

Any thoughts????
Thanks in advance.

I had the same thing happen today.

I've seen odd behaviour like this in the past, but eventually mine will work.

Last week, before I got 5.9.0, I had a double honk situation, the only thing I had done that was out of routine, was that I opened the Frunk then closed it, later in the afternoon, when I tried to remote start, she honked at me indicating a failed request. I went out and manually started the truck, since then no issues other than a few quicks with departure times.

Are your departure times also failing?

Try erasing all events in departure time and rebuild the rules.

Good question. Actually, given all the holidays parties and what not, I haven’t been departing at my normal time, so I really can’t say. But I will try to do what you said.
Also, I did access the frunk the day it stopped working (something I rarely do). I’ll open and close it to see if it makes a difference.
I do know that the front and rear parking sensors have been caked with snow/ice, but I doubt that has anything effect on that, right?
At any rate, let me try those things and I’ll report back.

Mine today too. Went out to start it. Worked fine every time after for the rest of day

Updates are coming! Expect erratic behaviour for the next couple of days.

True, this mornings DT didn't kick off as expected so I punched the fan.

They need more gerbils to power the mainframes, LOL

Good morning, if you’d like further assistance regarding the climate error message feel free to send us a private message with your VIN and local Ford dealer. Thank you!

We’re all having issues so I don’t see how sending you our VIN number and you telling us to set an appointment up is gonna help. Ford needs programmers and engineers working on this not dealerships

Not all. My remote start worked yesterday and this morning.
