"It is needed to trip some relays that allow the 330v HVBattery to start the ICE with MG1. "
 
In the Toyota system, the 12 volt battery powers up the computers so that the car can start. I'm not sure about the Ford system.

Can anyone recommend a source for decent carpeted floor mats? The originals on my new 2008 Mariner are the only weak point in the vehicle!
 
Thanks,

These are not carpeted but work great if you are interested. They have raised sides on them so nothing runs off them. Custom fit and built to last, well worth the price. I don't see the Mariner listed but I am sure the Escape are an exact match.

The Weather Tech products are terrific, but in this case I am looking for carpeted mats.
 
Thanks,

Dave,
 
Whatever happened about your whistling Escape hybrid? I have the exact same problem and got exactly the same thing from Ford zone: the car is working as intended; there's nothing we need to fix.
 
Thanks
Anne

In the Escape Hybrid Quick reference guide that you should have received with the owners manual it says on the 2nd page under engine "You may also hear a slight whine or whistle when operating your vehicle." " This is the normal operation of the electric generator in the hybrid system."
Are you sure it is not this noise?

This is actually what I wanted to know, since even though the HV battery is warrantied for >100 kmiles, I haven't had a 12 V battery last more than 4 years, ever. I would expect it to fail first. Hopefully, the built-in test will sense this and give you a proper alert when it fails to hold a charge.
