Dash board lights - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

all those radio .ketless entry all inside are run by a body control module that is locator under the dash in the center behind the radio. do not confuse it with the ecu, the ecu is under the hood

The power goes from the headlight switch thru the dimmer switch for the dash then to the cluster. You would check for voltage at those three points.

yes sounds as if its an ecu problem

if you feel grinding then you have not properly installed the pads
the abs sensor is in the same area so maybe you damaged or partially loosened the sensor

do you have any of the warning lights on in the dash??? maybe a door ajar or the rear hatch or hatch window

Get the code, any time you get a MIL Lamp on dash

Jerky--could be EGR Valve

Need the vehicle to diagnose issues,can not guess

Ignition coils a big ford problem, for over 14 years running.
They like to sell them that way

The smell is from the field windings in the alternator getting to hot .It sounds like your alternator is getting ready to go out on you .Please have it checked soon or the car could leave you stranded on the road.

First solution would be to check the fuses. Commonly, the low and high beams are on separate circuits. Dont forget the interior and under hood fuse boxes. Use your owners manual and the fuse cover to find the right one. In some cases, there is a separate fuse for each light, but I don't think this is the case here. Sounds like a fuse. If it is, replace it and if it goes again, take it to your Ford dealer, or a local mechanic.

pcm is under the console under the dash not the one between the seats. It's also called a gem module. Replaced ours to fix sporatic no start problem but didn't.
