Ford Excursion :: Part Number For Message Center

I am looking to install a new Message Center in my 2003 Excursion XLT. I have checked the vehicle for wiring and everything seems to be in the right places. I have ordered the Ambient Temp Sensor and that will just plug into the harness that is on my vehicle with a factory cap in place at the moment. However when I tried to order the message center, the dealer said it would be best to get the part number off one that is currently in a vehicle.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: CEL After Engine Failsafe Mode Message

I have a 2004 F-150 Lariat with a 5.4. (FYI-Have not had clockspring recall fixed yet)

124K miles. Vehicle has been operated in AZ and TX only until coming to Minot, ND 6 weeks ago.

3 days ago I got an "Engine Failsafe Mode" on startup. I shut the vehicle off immediately. Started it up again and the "Engine Failsafe Mode" message disappeared, but the engine light came on and has stayed on for the last 3 days. It seems to be running ok, maybe a little rough.

I ran the reset info on the dash screen and all systems read out OK. I have not run the truck over 40 mph since, and not on the highway, but it seems to accelerate without a lot of hesitation.

I've seen in other forums that this might be a dirty or faulty throttle body and/or the dealer may be able to re-flash with updates but this is old 2004 info from newer owners back then.

What am I looking at from a time/price angle when going to the Dealer for service? I don't want to replace a throttle body if it just needs to be cleaned and re-flashed because I'm ignorant.

Anything I should watch out for? I'm not a competent mechanic!

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2012 XLT - Message Center Not Responding

I had the oil change message up for a few days. Each time I started it I'd just hit reset to make the message disappear. Today I got around to changing the oil and now my "Oil Change Required" will not go away.

I've tried holding the buttons (info, reset and setup) for a while, nothing. I tried disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, still there.

The cruise control buttons still work. If I open a door, it tells me it's open then returns to oil message. Just can't clear the message.

I should add, it's a 2012 F150 XLT with a 5.0. No sync system.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Rear ABS Center Speed Sensor Input Malfunction

I have an ABS light on. I have crawled under the truck I don't know how many times everything is connected just as it should be. The wires did have to taped up because they burnt into after getting against the exhaust at some point, but I had fixed that awhile ago, I've even tore back into the tape and re-did everything again, nothing gets rid of the ABS light. When this first happened it would go away after I turned the truck off, but would come back after using the brakes a few times, especially harder stops. Then it got to where it just came on and stayed on, and didn't go out no matter what. Thinking my ABS speed sensor went, I bought a brand new motorcraft one from rock auto it fits perfectly in the rear, plug looks good. I can't find NOTHING that would keep this light on. The code is always the same "Rear ABS Center Speed Sensor Input Malfunction", how to get rid of this?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Electrical Static Like Noise From Center Dash Area?

2004 F150 FX4, 5.4L, 116k

I have replaced the IWE solenoid ,alternator, spark plugs, air filter, idled pulley and check valve nearest to the IWE solenoid. The sound happens while in neutral and while in Drive at ~2250 RPM and above at an increasingly louder increments. The sound also happens when in neutral rolling down hill when engine speeds are above 2250 RPMs. The sound still happens while in 4x4 and does not stop if 4x4 is engaged while the noise is happening. The noise can be found while revving in park. It seems to be coming from inside the cab almost or center firewall area. However I can't find it with a stethoscope, I would compare it to electrical static.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Message Center Buttons Not Working

A couple of weeks ago, had a weird thing happen. When turning left at slow speed there was a click sound that came from the upper part of the steering column (similar to the sound you got with the indicators on in the old super duties when turning and it would go over the clockspring). It hasn't repeated the noise since.

Anyways, a week or so after this, I happened to try to use the buttons for my message center to reset my odo, which I rarely use. Didn't work. In fact all of the 5 buttons associated with the message center on the left side of my steering wheel are not working, but the cruise control buttons are. The buttons on the right side of the steering wheel are also working fine.

I am not sure if the noise in the steering column is related (but it has me suspicious...), or just coincidental, but wondered on peoples thoughts to diagnose. I pulled off the cover over the steering column, all the wires in and out of the clock spring look fine, I haven't pulled the switch yet (need to look at the service manual to make sure I don't break it as I do it), but wanted to see what was the diagnosis.

I was plowing and when I put it in reverse it felt like it slipped, but then the dash message trans malfunction came up. I checked the codes and I got P0722 output shaft speed sensor.

Then the truck went into safe mods. Is it just the sensor or is my reverse going out...

I have an '04 F-150 4 x 4 Supercrew Lariat w/ the 5.4 V-8. It has 105,832 miles on it. No issues until a week ago.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2012 F250 - Message Center Is Not Working At All

A buddy's 2012 f250 message center is not working at all. He replaced the fuse and it's still not working. The gauges work but not the high tech information center. He isn't sure if it's out of warranty because he can't see the miles. I'm not sure that's it's anywhere related but his back up sensors do not work either.
