I did the battery disconnect for 60 min( some say 20 is enough) and my problems were solved. I have a my13 fx4.
Same here. Disconnect the battery for awhile and then reconnect and the problem should go away.

When disconnecting the battery for that long, what is lost?
Radio settings?
GPS favorites?
Dash board settings?

I go through this every winter/spring when swapping my snow tires off & on. My truck isn't lifted, but it goes way off track after the tire swap. After a 20 min negative side battery disconnect, problem solved.

After 20 mins, I don't lose anything.


*edit the radio settings you'll probably lose. All I use is satellite, and it doesn't get affected.
