My credo
it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
This may just require a module reset...or be a loose connection.

Happens on all of our brainiac touch screen Mac daddy trucks ...Chevy Ford or Dodge.

I specifically chose the peasant HVAC truck when I had to get a new shop truck. The dumber the better ... Or so I hope.


You can do a module reset with forscan. Cheap and valuable investment if you own a Ford.

I dont know if there is really a way around it, no matter how crude the user interface is it is a rube goldberg electro-contraption that makes it all work.

I am in parts at a CDJR dealer and i am in on scheduling to a certain degree, the op's wait time is outrageous, especially for something that critical.
