Strange Message on 5D MarkIII LCD Panel Possible shots area

Zurbaran1 — Fri, 26 Jun 2015 21:05:46 GMT

I just got my 5DIII back from routine service and after taking a few pics today I started getting a flashing message in the Possible Shots area on the top LCD Panel. It's flashing "FAII" which may be "fail." My shots are coming out but I really don't want to have to look at this message flashing all the time. Does anyone have any idea as to what this may be? I looked in the manual and it's not even listed as one of the messages that might appear in this area of the panel. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply John. I actually heard back from Canon on this. The tech who was servicing my camera left it in a service mode which is why I see this flashing message. I will be taking it back Monday to have this corrected.
