We had a recent cold spell where the temperatures dipped below zero for a few days and the wind chill had us at minus 30 for a day. I don't drive my truck daily and have to park it outside.
During the cold spell I tried to remote start my truck and it wouldn't start unless I physically got into it and pushed the start button. Once the weather got warmer, I needed to move it so I could get another car out the garage. When I started it every warning light relating to the BLIS system came on and wouldn't go off, even the check engine light came on.
I moved the truck to the street, turned it off, and worked on my car. Later I drove the truck around the block, all the BLIS warnings went off, but the check engine light stayed on. Yesterday, I started it and there were no lights at all. I had loaned out my scan tool so I couldn't check for codes.
But my question, has anyone experienced anything like this? I'm thinking it was due to the extreme cold but wanted to check here before I venture to the dealership just to be told they can't duplicate the issue.
