2024 lightning
I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else, I have a 2024 Lighting lariat I had it parked, for the past month or 2 and it's been plugged into my 120 charger sitting in my shop, so went out to drive it, got in and nothing... it would lock and unlock but everything was black all screens black no activation sequence at all. I set my fob in the front center tray by the phone charger just to put it somewhere (am not sure if it met anything to do with the situation) then tried the start button one more time and everything came to life and have not had a problem since then and no error lights not that it had any before. How weird is that. any thoughts

She was in a deep sleep mode most likely.

Like taxmanhog suggested, it was probably in deep sleep mode. Even ICE F-150s do this too. But your saying that now none of it works normal?

I think he is saying it is working normal now once he got it to wake up from the deep sleep!

Ahh yes thank you
I read it the same as you. Tough to read when he leaves ;) out punctuation:
Was it:
No totally black ; none of the normal activation sequence works normal now
No totally black, none of the normal activation sequence ; works normal now

You may have to jumpstart the 12V battery located inside the frunk.
