Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2012 F250 - Parking Brake And E-brake Adjustment?

The problem is I haven't seen one for a recent (2011+) SD. I don't see anything that resembles a rear drum. They look like 2 huge regular disc brakes.

I live on a hill. My old man taught me to put the trans in neutral, autos and manuals, put the ebrake on and make sure it holds the vehicle, then put the trans into park or 1st gear. This way the weight of the vehicle doesn't rest on the transmission.

How do I adjust the Ebrake? It's ALMOST holding the truck, just needs a minor tweak. I don't see the dust cover the write ups described at all. The one that reveals the Star Wheel. Are they different on these years then prior SD's?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: New X Code Springs And Now Squeaking

Replaced my old sagging leaf springs with new X code springs. Had an almost impossible time centering the axle even with adjustable center link. Even with it totally maxed out it is just barely centered. Now I have a terrible squeak coming from springs. Is this because of the side loading of springs? Is there any fix for it? Not only do they squeak but the drivers side now sags almost an inch even with brand new springs. 2002 F350. Super annoying and irritating

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Code P2285 - New ICP Sensor

I have been trying to find a new sensor after my truck popped a P2285 code. I can't find ICP sensor at any auto parts store. I found this but it was labeled as a fuel pressure sensor on RockAuto: More Information for Standard Motor Products ICP103... Is this the same thing?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Front End Brake Chatter

I have been having some brake chatter for awhile now. I have changed pads, changed rotors, rebuilt both front calipers, flushed all my brake fluid, and made sure my slide pins were good and free. I have noticed some weird wear on the new front rotors and was wondering if it was normal or not. On a different note, I am having to replace my parking brake pads. When I had the axle out I looked in and saw a bunch of gunk.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Brake Pads Squeaking A Lot

I recently replaced all of my brake pads with yellow stuff and they seem to be squeaking a lot. I also noticed when I am driving and I stop and let off of the brakes they don't release immediately so could it be this is the cause of the squeaks or do these brake pads just squeak like crazy? I read somewhere it could possibly be the brake lines but I don't see how this could be the cause for so much squeaking.

My truck is a 2011 F 250 diesel crew cab....

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: How Often Flush Brake Fluid

Back, I flushed when it turned opaque...

Then I bought a car engineered to last more than just a couple 100K miles and was surprised to find a lot of items in the preventive maintenance list that I never thought about.

It recommended flushing every 30K or 2 years. A bit of research showed this was also recommended by several other manufacturers. Even more common with advent of ABS.

So now I try to flush at least every 2 or 3 years.

I still have not found any recommendations from Ford or GM? Either I'm blind or (cynic stepping in) they still don't expect vehicles to last that long... Or like to sell replacement parts?

So I went to start my truck today (1999 f250 5.4), it hasn't ran in a couple days due to -38C weather. When I started it today, it started rough(understandable in this weather) but my abs light and brake light came on and will not shut off. It ran fine the last time I used it, but now the lights came on. What may have happened.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Brake Light Not Working?

I recently discovered that my brake lights were not working. The high mount is. With a little research I came to the conclusion the switch was bad. I checked every fuse that had brake in the title. All good. So I buy a NAPA switch and swap it out. Still no brake lights and now high mount is not working. To check, I reinstalled the old switch. Still nothing. What now and why would the center mount stop working?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2000 - Blank Axle Code?

I plan to be buying a 2000 F250 V10 in a couple of hours.

I had my boss run by and take a picture of the door tag so I could determine the axle code. What he sent me was this:

Other than giving me the knowledge of how bad of a photographer he is, it doesn't tell me much else. The axle code area is blank, what gives? Am I just going to have to crawl under the truck when I get there after work?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: ABS Light On Dash Came Up - Code P0500

1999 F250 Super Duty 6.8 V10 4x4 157k miles

On Friday afternoon the ABS light on my dash came up, ran the codes on my SCT Livewire and came up with a "P0500 Vehicle Speed Sensor A"

What should I be going after? Rear speed sensor? Front ABS sensors? Transmission speed sensor?

Speedometer is functioning 90% of the time, twice in the last 48 hours it wouldn't then shift hard and I would pull off to reset.

I have looked over the search results and wondered if there is a way to test the sensor with my multi-meter? Seems quite a bit of people had flashing over-drive light's at the same time, which I do not.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Getting Code P0741 - TC Isn't Seated Properly?

99 F350 7.3l with 4R100 trans. About a month ago I took out a monster trans that had about 60k on it and it was burnt up. No warranty. ..customer bought another monster. After the install when going into 4th the torque converter would instantly lock making it feel as though the truck was falling on its face. Monster had me do some data logging and from the info I provided they determined it had a bad solenoid pack. They sent a new one out...when I went to install the new pack I noticed when I dropped the pan that the fluid was iridescent looking...a bolt for the valve body was in the bottom of the pan and lots of material stuck to the magnets....

Needless to say that trans only lasted about 2 weeks after putting the solenoid pack in. Fast forward to today..got trans number 3 from monster under warranty. After the install everything seemed good. About 30 mins into highway driving the od light starts flashing. ..subsequently the P0741 code. I did put 2 new wire pigtails on the front and rear speed sensors. The pigtails were a ford service part but they were a bit different in design. I am pretty sure the wires are correctly oriented..if not would this cause the issue. I really am leaning towards a bad solenoid pack again. My buddy thinks the TC isn't seated properly....where do I start? Also has an edge programmer on it..but it's been on the same map all this time

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Manual Locking Hubs Code

I just ordered '00 F250 SC 4x4 SWB XLT with the factory standard manual hubs. The hubs show up on the vehicle order confirmation as code "21M MAN LOCKING HUB". I can't find this code in the ordering guides anywhere but kbb.com shows this code as "Manual hubs delete. Required with 213 shift-on-the-fly". I want the manual hubs. I think ##### is incorrect. For my piece of mind, could someone who has also ordered the factory standard manual hubs verify that the code is indeed 21M. And for those who ordered shift-on-the-fly, could you verify that 21M does NOT show up on your order confirmation...
