My car, with active ConnectedDrive subscription, has not moved for a month now, as I am temporarily in a different country. I want to check current location (at home presumably), however all remote services requests fail.
Could this be due to battery voltage too low, or is ConnectedDrive getting disabled if the car has not been moved for a while?

FYI - I know there is a max 1.5-2km radius applicable to locate a car through connected drive. I am overriding my GPS position to 'simulate' my phone being at home, next to my car, so this restriction is not causing an issue. In any case, I am not seeing the 'you are too far away to locate the car' error
It will be disabled if the battery gets to low to prevent the system from fully draining the battery. Also, of course, once the battery is fully drained it will die then as well.

It will resume working when the car is powered on to give the battery a charge.
