It is Ford's crazy charging system, BMS. My truck sits for days at a time and I have a Noco 5 connected when it is in the garage. I even have changed out the OEM battery from a H6 to a H7. I don't get the low battery warning but still put the Noco 5 maintainer on.

Same here. I have the Noco Gen5X1 on the truck whenever it's parked and I don't drive for 3 - 4 days. I haven't had any issues since I used the Noco on my OEM H6 battery. (Same setup on my wife's 2024 Escape with H6 battery.)

I have attached to the positive behind the BMS sensor and to the body ground.

Mine is hooked up just like yours. I think by not driving it for three weeks triggered the message.

Crazy BMS system is cray-cray...

Mine didn't flinch at the -10F through -15F weather during 5 days last week, but now that we're in the upper 30s for the past 36hrs, it bitches. Occurred once yesterday randomly around dinner time, and then once this morning before remote starting it.

I took the truck for a drive this weekend and message is gone. I'm sure it will come back after anther extended hibernation.
