Not sure if this is the right area to post, but...
I have a '13 Laguna Seca that has decided to not crank or start. This a.m. it acted like the immobilizer (whatever the Ford equivalent is) was acting up. Lock symbol flashed at 3 separate attempts to start and then started. Drove fine 30 miles to work with no issues. All accessories operating no fault. Time to leave for home and same thing occurred, but took about 5 minutes of trying to get it started. Once started it ran fine, but noticed the ambient temperature read 56 F when in reality it was 80 F. Inlet temp. of the center gauge computer set read correctly. Anyway, get home and park. Figure maybe the remote battery is marginal. Change the batteries in both silver and red key.
Now "Service Advantrac", "Check Charging System" messages appear with no crank/ no start.
Battery is fine. Fuses check out o.k. Power good up to the fuse box from the battery. Quick scan with my SCT just gives a 21000 error message. Quick look around at grounds and connections on the car seem to be o.k. No different result if using known good jump box.
The car is stock electronic wise. No tunes or things like that. Just the Red Key programmed.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
