More often than not, the FEH/MMH simply need a recharge. 05-08 have a built-in jump starter that allows on-board charging from the 12V (best if done attached to a running jump vehicle). 09+ do not have the jump starter and must be disassembled and charged. I do 1-2 dozen a year for folks that let them sit until they discharge. Pandemic had me particularly busy with 09-10. Had 4 on site at one time.
Those years look funny.
I'm pretty sure the only Ford hybrid in 2008 was the Escape (hybrid from 2005 thru 2012 And again from 2020). The first year Fusion & Milan hybrids were 2010.
