Diagnosis and Testing

Ford approved diagnostic tool

Inspection and Verification

  1. Verify the customer concern.
  1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.

Visual Inspection Chart

Mechanical Electrical
  • Engine oil filter
  • Engine oil level
  • Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor
  • Engine coolant level
  • Thermostat
  • Collapsed or damaged fuel tank
  • Door adjustment
  • Fuse(s)
  • Wiring harness
  • Electrical connector(s)
  • Instrument cluster
  • Light emitting diode(s) (LED)(s)
  1. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
  1. If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and enter the instrument cluster Self-Diagnostic Mode.

Self-Diagnostic Mode

NOTE:
NOTE:The OK button is located on the steering wheel right-hand side switch.
  1. To enter the instrument cluster Self-Diagnostic Mode. Simultaneously press and hold the OK button and turn the ignition switch from position 0, to position II.
  1. Entry to the Self-Diagnostic Mode is confirmed when 'TEST' is displayed in the information and message center display. The set button must be released within three seconds of 'TEST' being displayed or the instrument cluster will exit the Self-Diagnostic Mode.
  1. To navigate through or skip any of the instrument cluster Self-Diagnostic Mode tests, press the OK button. If the OK button is pressed for more than 3 seconds between tests, the instrument cluster will exit the Self-Diagnostic Mode.
  1. The Self-Diagnostic Mode is deactivated when the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position or low battery voltage is detected.
  1. If input data to the instrument cluster is missing or invalid, the information and message center will display '----'
NOTE:
NOTE:Additional tests are available after the following Self-Diagnostic Mode tests, but are not applicable for this diagnostic.
