Summary
Some 2019-2021 Ford
GT vehicles may exhibit a discharged battery with the battery charger and maintainer connected to the rear hatch storage compartment power point. This may be due to the cigar plug comfort connect end of the battery charger and maintainer not being completely inserted into the rear hatch storage compartment power point or by becoming disconnected when the cable is pulled when the rear hatch is lowered. Before diagnosing, interview the customer about their hook up method and the possibility of the cigar plug comfort connect end not being completely inserted and/or tension on the charge cable when the rear hatch is lowered. A properly connected and powered battery charger and maintainer will have an illuminated green power indicator and a battery charge level indicator showing at all times.

- 3-in-1 Smart Car Battery Charger: This 15A 12V car battery charger comes with a compact size and super fast charging, suitable for all 12V lead-acid batteries (including AGM, GEL, SLA, VRLA, etc.) and LiFePO4 lithium batteries. Charging, maintaining, and trickle charging modes for cars, motorcycles, trucks, boats, and more. Please note: this is a car battery charger and please connect it to a power source before use. (Please do not let the charger operating unattended for more than 12 hours.)
- Plug and Play Operation: Simply connect the clamps to your car battery. The LCD screen will light up and automatically display the battery voltage and ambient temperature. This automatic car battery charger gets to work the moment you plug the AC power cord into a 110-240V (50-60Hz) wall socket, it will automatically detect and charge. You can also manually select from 6 using modes with the press of the “MODE” button.(Input cable length: 102 cm; output cable length: 60 cm.)
- Smart Winter Battery Trickle Charger: This intelligent car battery charger features dual seasonal modes (Winter/Summer) that automatically adjust charging voltage based on ambient temperature, helping prevent undercharging in winter and overcharging in summer. This ensures battery health whether your vehicle is in daily use or stored for months.
- LCD Display: Battery charger comes with a LCD screen shows charging data including voltage, current, battery level, ambient temperature, and seasonal modes (summer/winter), making it easy to stay updated on charging progress.
- Battery Maintenance & Recovery: This smart battery charger features a dedicated pulse repair mode, detects and reverses battery salvation and acid stratification in lead-acid batteries, extending battery life and functionality.
- Efficient, Energy-Saving, and Fast Charging: The TowerTop 12v battery charger offers 4 adjustable current settings (2A/10A/25A/AUTO) to meet your diverse needs. With a max charging current of 25A, you can fully charge a 100Ah battery in under 3.5 hours. Achieving an 85% charging efficiency (industry average 75%), this battery chargers is more efficient, increasing charging speed by 1640% compared to 2A car battery charger. Not only is it energy-efficient, but it also saves you a lot of wait time
- Fully Automatic Charging for Convenience and Safety: This 12 volt battery charger automatically detects battery status and starts charging automatically within 30 seconds if you forget to press Start. After a full charge, it enters pulse repair mode, turns off the screen to save energy, and maintains a safe voltage for long-term storage. If voltage drops, it restores full power. The smart battery charger also remembers your last settings, ensuring seamless operation even after a power outage
- All-in-One Compatible Design: Designed for 12V sealed lead-acid batteries in cars, boats, RVs, power sports, and deep-cycle batteries, including 12V STD, AGM, GEL, Wet, MF, EFB, calcium and deep-cycle batteries
- HD LCD Screen and 8-Stage Intelligent Charging: With true 8-stage smart charging (desulfurization, soft start, bulk charge, absorption, analysis, repair, float, and pulse maintenance), it optimizes battery life and repairs batteries without overcharging or damaging them. The HD LCD screen allows you to view the charging stage and parameters at any time rather than leaving you guessing, keeping you informed of the charging status
- Battery Repair: Independent desulfurization and repair buttons allow you to manually desulfurize and repair your battery to restore lost battery performance, helping to revive old/idle batteries and extend battery life. If your battery cannot be charged, you can try the "repair" mode to fix it. Note: It cannot repair completely drained batteries
