    Loss of power

    Resolution: Dealer replaced an EGRT Sensor per TSB 11-6-15. I have been Googling all over trying to find TSB 11-6-15 to see what it is all about. Service Writer didn't appear to really know what this sensor does. I like to understand what failed and how it caused the symptom that I...

    Loss of power

    OK, so I'm driving down the road and I felt a shudder. After that I had acceleration but a noticeable loss of power. I came to a stop and started over. It accelerates but not at the rate as it did before. The boost gauge is showing boost (about 1/2 on the meter). Motor seems to run OK and...

    Tail light/directional light wiring

    What I am looking for is this. When I pull the tail light assembly from the truck, the large bulb (tail light, brake light and directional) has three wires running to it. I assume each wire is for 1 of the three functions. I am trying to find out which wire controls what and for each side (L...

    Tail light/directional light wiring

    Can someone tell me the color coding for the let and right tail light assembly. Particularly interest in the directional and ground wiring. Or at least direct me to a wiring diagram for these assemblies.

    Driver Seat Memory

    powerboatr Thanks for the reply. I created my own door code to one that I can remember. I noticed that if my wife left the seat in her setting and I use the code to unlock the door, it will automatically go to my settings. But it does not do this with the key. The newer trucks must have a...

    Driver Seat Memory

    thanks, but the truck ain't that sophisticated. I have to set the seat, pedals and mirrors where I want them, then press 1 and then SET. My fie does the same thing then presses 2 and then the SET button. I'm thinking there is some sort of control module somewhere that is going haywire...

    Driver Seat Memory

    My truck has the Driver Seat Memory package. It isn't working right. When my wife drives the truck she hits the #2 button for her seat settings. It seems that when she does this, the settings for the #1 button (my setting) get set to hers too. When I reset #1 to my settings, #2 gets changed...

    2010 flasher for LED lights

    My understanding is that there is no stand alone flasher in our trucks. There is some sort monitoring by the computer and if it senses there is not enough power consumption (ie burnt bulb/open filament) it will put the blinker into fast mode. I looked into a bit more, but never went on with...

    Question How much does it weigh?

    took mine down the highway to the Love's Truck Stop. Full of fuel, all occupants, 5er hitch and associated towing supplies (in other words, ready to tow) and it weighed in at 10,600 #'s. GVWR is 14,500 #'s.

    Rollup Tonneau Cover

    I have the Roll-N-Lock cover. The cover locks as wells as my tailgate. When locking both, it provides a bit of security. If anyone wants to get in they will.

    DPF Cleaning

    two weeks ago we put on about 150 miles, mostly interstate. I saw it go thru the DPF cleaning cycle and complete. A while later the CE light came on again. So off to the dealer it went. Long story short, there was a bad sensor erratically sensing the DPF was dirty. That is what the dealer...

    DPF Cleaning

    DaveBen - no offense taken. Dogman - thanks for the info. It is going in soon for an oil change, I'll ask about the update. I have received no notification of an upgrade. I would prefer to have it done while I am still in Texas (I have found a great truck dealership here). I drove to...

    DPF Cleaning

    I am fulltime RV'er and pull an 18,000 pound trailer. I m planning on a purchase of a 21K trailer soon. This is why I bought this truck. But I don't pull that trailer every day. In fact I usually setup and stay a few months wherever I am at. Last year I drove it a lot while setup, including...

    DPF Cleaning

    OK. I do not do a lot of highway driving. Better than 90% of my driving is is on local roads complete with traffic lights an stop signs. I have seen my Cleaning Exhaust Filter message come on a few times but it doesn't get to finish the cycle. After a while the Check Engine light came on. On...

    Extended Warranty

    Does anyone know of a reputable provider of an Extended Warranty program that is NOT tied to a specific dealer? I am a fulltime RV'er and don't know where in the lower 48 I will be at any given time. I cannot be tied to any particular dealer.

    Check Engine Light

    My check engine light came on the other day. Saturday I was driving it on the highway (heading to the Ford dealer) the truck went thru (and completed) the regen cycle. I stopped at a store for a cup of coffee and when I started the truck again, the check engine light was off. Now I...

    White smoke and no cleaning filter message

    I used to get that on cold damp days (I say used to because I now head south for the winter). It was in regen mode but I never saw a message on the message center. I had a computer flash upgrade about a year ago and I now get the message saying it is cleaning the filter. I did see once, when...

    Losing Coolant

    In my case the radiator was leaking. Ford said there was a TSB on it and replaced the radiator. This was with 35K miles.

    Turn Signal Flasher

    so it seems there is no flasher per se. The lamp blink rate is controlled by a Smart Junction Box (SJB) and controls the flash rate at 80 blinks per minutes (bpm). When it senses low or no current draw then it flashes that particular light at a rate of 120 bpm. Since the LED bulb has very...

    Turn Signal Flasher

    I've read the manual 4 times before posting and I can't find anything. I looked thru it again and still nothing.
