Thanks, well I'm happy its on now then. So basically if its cold enough 5 deg or below the radio trick will fire up the FBH on the drive and should warm the car up.
Still not ideal i suppose but its better than nothing Will this setting affect the intended use of the FBH for example will it still run with the engine if the climate is cold enough, as i think the option that used to be on there that was simply pre heat on or off has now gone

Won't work if
Battery voltage low
Low fuel light on
Parked on a hill
Or human error .. Set timer for 19.30 instead of 7.30 G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

The simple reasons are:
Low fuel level
Low battery charge
Vehicle not been started since the last time the FBH was run
The complicated reasons are for people who know what they're talking about MY2022 D5 HSE D300 - with extra nice bits added
MY2019 D5 HSE 3.0 SDV6 - sold to a dealer for a crazy price! - So good I bought another!
MY2012 D4 HSE 3.0 SDV6 - retired to a new home
Ha ha. Funny you say that wiggs, I went back to the car 5 mins after setting it just in case I hadn't used the 24h clock
Fuel level at just under 25%, car used every day, parked on level hard standing, setup last night to come on at 0730 and 1715.
TC option not even highlighted as an available option this morning.Front Runner Rack, OEM Ladder & RAI, Tuff-Trek Foxwing, B'rakhah Ingonyama Expedition Trailer, RLD's Spare Wheel Protector, Bodsy's Bars, Empty Pockets! Member of Gloucestershire & Worcestershire 4x4 Response.

Have you got a remote fitted ?
If so test it with thatG4 Gone ...but not forgotten
No, that's what made it unusual...first thing I checked when I got in a cold car and then started it. Got a reasonable run out yesterday too (back home at 20:00), so wouldn't expect a low battery...unless of course the battery's on its way out?Front Runner Rack, OEM Ladder & RAI, Tuff-Trek Foxwing, B'rakhah Ingonyama Expedition Trailer, RLD's Spare Wheel Protector, Bodsy's Bars, Empty Pockets!

Some of the software changes made the low battery warning very obscure, sometimes it only flashes up on Nav screen, not main dash.
Has the battery recently been run low, doors left open, in garage for repairs D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST

Nothing springs to mind. I'll have a good look in the morning now but the TC didn't work at 17:15 this evening on 75% tank and another 50 or so mile trip around lunchtime.Front Runner Rack, OEM Ladder & RAI, Tuff-Trek Foxwing, B'rakhah Ingonyama Expedition Trailer, RLD's Spare Wheel Protector, Bodsy's Bars, Empty Pockets!

Another cold morning but still no TC. Tank 3/4 full, no battery warning lights, no TC message on the screen. All TC settings look correct.
So, given that my rear sensors aren't working, one door mirror doesn't de-mist and now TC not functioning, do I just give in and get someone to look at it all or do I buy a fault code reader and if so, which one?Front Runner Rack, OEM Ladder & RAI, Tuff-Trek Foxwing, B'rakhah Ingonyama Expedition Trailer, RLD's Spare Wheel Protector, Bodsy's Bars, Empty Pockets!
