bought this truck (2006 f350 6.0 175k) a few months ago and the check engine light was on. Took it in and had the fuel injection control module changed. Drove it a few times since and now sometimes when I start it the tow/haul light will flash for the first few minutes of driving and the tow haul mode will be engaged.

There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for it coming on or turning back off.

Im not sure if changing the FICM had anything to do with this or if its a coincidence.

Also I need a new #7 plug and fan clutch (full disclosure here). Also the ABS light will come on sometimes while Im driving as well.

I took the truck into the dealer today and they said theirs a code for some tranny sensor on it now.

I guess my question is; Do you think this sensor going out right after they worked on it is a coincidence and whats up with the ABS light?

Thanks in advance, sorry for the long post.

 

dealership found the fan clutch wires got caught in the fan and there was a short there.

Seems this is a fairly common issue as the paperwork they had that described the fault code actually listed this as one of the possible causes.

They haven't fixed it yet but I'm hoping this will remedy the issue.

As for the ABS, he says its probably a sensor in the tire that went bad. More later.

P.s. damn I wish there where more ppl on this forum!
