Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2014 F450 Truck Does Not Detect Trailer

I have a 2014 F 450 and today one of my trailers will not engaged the brakes and it is saying on the display that there is no trailer connected. I cannot engage the brakes manually with switch.

I have running lights, I have brake lights I have hazards lights and turn signals. The brakeaway switch is not engaging the brakes when removed, I hooked up to another trailer of mine and it recognized and acknowledged being hooked to a trailer.

So... I know it is something with the trailer but what wire I should be looking at on the trailer?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Trailer Plugs Do Not Work

Went to hook up my trailer today and both the trailer plugs do not work. I checked the fuses and all is well. They worked fine the other day but now they don't work at all. I confirmed this by hooking up to another trailer and nothing. Also got another truck and went to trailers and it worked.

My truck has 19000 miles so it's practically new. I have never seen this. I called dealer but they can't see it til next week and I need the trailer brakes and lights. Where could I look or what could the problem be?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 F350 4X4 - Cargo Light Doesn't Work

I have an 08 F350 regular cab 4X4 that the cargo light doesn't work, Is this powered from the interior light like the old ones? or does it get its power from the GEM module? If it comes from the GEM is it possible to feed it like the old ones from the interior dome light without killing something? I really miss having a cargo light.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 F450 - Lost Both Turbos / Exhaust Manifold Bolts Broken

Our F-450 with 102000 miles lost both turbos also broken exhaust manifold bolts. This truck carries tools fuel tank and sometimes skid loader on trailer. Heard lots of bad things about 6.4 liter motor now first hand experience. Asked dealer if 6500.00 bill could be reduced since so close to 100000 mile warranty and was told nothing could be done. Can not afford to sell truck now also have two other Ford F-250s newest one 2012. Is there any other approach that could be taken to get some relief from this expense.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 F450 7.3L - Overdrive Light Flashing

Overdrive light started flashing this week on my 2000 F450 7.3 mason dump. It only does it when it shifts into 4th gear once it hits that gear at about 35mph the overdrive light flashes until you restart the truck and it resets. Does the same thing all the time but DOESN'T flash if i'm driving around town on back roads and never get to that gear. Could this be something minor besides the transmission starting to go? It drives and shifts fine even when the light is flashing. I wait to get the error code read?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 F450 - O/D Light On - P1754 Error Code?

OD light flashes on my 2000 F450 7.3 but still runs and drives shifts fine. If i turn o/d off before i get going then it won't throw the code and start flashing at all. I am going to check the harness again to see if there are any bad wires. If not is it usually a bad solenoid pack i can just swap it out and fix the problem? I have to replace the pan soon so when I do if I need to replace the pack I'd like to do it then.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: No Power To Trailer Light Bulb?

A week ago last Saturday I bought a 2006 F250 Lariat Crew Cab with the 6.0 and 4WD. The truck is really clean and only has 68,000 miles on it. Here's my question: I needed to tow a boat today and I discovered I have no power, at all, at the trailer light plug receptacle. Nothing at the 7-pin nor the flat-4. I looked through the manual and checked every fuse that had the word trailer associated with it and I can also feel the turn signal relays clicking with the flashers on.

Am I missing something really simple or do I just need to follow the wire harness from the back and look for something that is not connected? It seems kind of weird for it to be just....dead.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Trailer Light Replacement Harness

The pigtail from my bumper mounted 7-pin to the factory connector is all hacked up from the previous owner so I'm looking to replace that pigtail. Also wondering if there should be 2 connectors down there to add a connector for my gooseneck or do I need to splice another universal 7-pin into the bumper light pigtail? Also, is there another (preferably slightly cheaper) option besides e-trailer for such a connector?
