i am having severe problems with my truck and also looking for answers, my troubles seem to be related to water or cold, when something on the truck gets wet it will idle ok util you put in gear, the speedometer gose nuts... maxing out at 100mph, when i put the truck in gear it dies. this started to happen when we get snow at first. but now when i wash the undercarrage or under the hood. it also stalls sometimes, most recently it did it when i washed the truck and it was cold out . i avoided getting water under by the tranny or speed sensor on the rear end and it still went nuts.. if i am moving its ok the speedo still gose crazy and the od light flashes but it will work till i stop and then die.. sometimes it stops within 1/2 to 1 hr. but has lasted as long as two days cycleing the key helps to get it rolling again butit dose not always work doyou have the spedo problem or know of anyone who has heard of this????

Ignition Control Module ?? by cwhitewater

I have a 97 F-150 and had changed the starter on it after that it never started again. it sounds like it wants to start but doesn't, I had put a wire in the spark plug wire and held it to metal, and there was no fire at all, so could it be the Ignition Control Module or something else, and I don't know where to find the module to take if off so I can get it tested or matched to purchase a new one. so please help me figure this out.

Instrument cluster suddenly went dead by charliekilo

Hi,
 
The instrument cluster on my 2001 F350 (88,000 miles) suddenly went dead today. In addition to the instrument cluster, the windows do not roll down the horn doesn not honk when locking the doors remotly and the dome light flashes like I have the hazard lights on.
 
I have checkd all the fuses and cannot find any that have blown. The truck runs fine and the rest of the electrical system seems to work without any problems.
 
I live in the high desert and we have not had any rain for quite some time so I doubt I have an condensation issue.
 
Any feedback would be greatly appriciated.

I have a 2000 f 250 v10 and it has the same problem but the engine light will flicker and not run right. if the light stays on theres no power i've narrowed the problem to the computer plug in my truck condensation get's in it and causes it to short out so i take it out and dry the computer side i still have not came up with a solution to stop it from condisatiing from but it stops it from happening for a good while

i got the same problem with my truck but when mine first did it it sheered the gears in my rear axle nd cracked my tranny replaced them and it has a hard shift and no power with the pcm hooked up disconnect it got some power back but then my torque converter went out had a shop run a diagnostic they told me the pcm was bad because it didnt send a signal 6 months later im just about fed up i think it could be the condensation when i took it out it looked a little wet but havent hooked it back up due to the torque converter being out any ideas on how to keep it dry

check your peddle assy. or throttle position sensor(fuel peddle) it has 3 bolts that hold it in place and a plug assy that needs to be disconnected. if you replace this assy it will fix your problem. what leads me to believe that is i had the same problem with one of my trucks and i could run it using cruise but the peddle wouldnt work. it should fix your problem.
