Hi! I sent out my 1DX to be cleaned and the focus looked at, and I got it back the day before yesterday. I tried using it yesterday and the AF does not work. It is not tracking or focusing at all. I have a message popping up I have not seen before stating “EOS AF special mode activated “ I cannot find anything about this online and resetting the camera to factory settings did not make it go away. I am suspecting whatever this message is, it’s also connected to my focus problems.
The repair center is closed today so I can’t call them. Any suggestions do you all have?
Thank you so much!!

I would guess that it is in some AF troubleshooting mode. I suspect whoever set it has to remove it.
