I'm in a bit of a scramble, I've just arrived in the UK with my 2004 F150 and had the light conversion completed and now all kinds of issues, not sure if the cause. I picked the truck up at the port after customs and discovered a weak battery and I believe the shippers may have had to jump the truck. Although slow, it started and drove fine with no issues, I parked it at the shop to have the light conversion completed and when I came to pick it up it had some issues!! It ran like crap and the engine, service, parking brake, and the ABS lights are illuminated in the dash. The local shop hooked up a Snap-On hand held and got tons of faults but they are not able to clear the faults from the computer. Their idea was to clear them and try and isolate the cause on the next engine start. Any words, suggestions or ideas..... And FYI it has a Superchip program onboard, not sure if that would play a part.
Thanks ALL!!

 

disconnect the battery for i think its 30 mins and it should clear the codes. not sure but worth a try

 

Clear codes (^^^), use the Superchips and set to stock. If you dont have any issues within a week, reprogram with the superchip and see if any issues arise

 

What is a UK light conversion?

 

Take it back to the shop. You went for a light conversion and got your truck back worse off then when it came for. they should fix it.

 

Because you have to drive on the left side of the road the lights are adjusted slight left, small marker lights are installed just in front of the front doors, repeaters are put on the blinkers, and a rear fog light installed under the rear bumper. I believe the wiring is tapped in just above the brake switch on the brake pedal.

 

when they added the yellow turn signals did they cross any wires??


also did the truck get transported open or ina sealed container???


there's a good chance the cops got wet, and it may have beena flood truck...

 

since he lives in the UK he had to change a bunch of things about his brake/turn signal lights.

 

^ Oh.

 

Not sure about the crossing of wires but the truck is driven into a container like one that rides on a rail car or a tractor trailer then placed on a container ship. It is currently at the responsible shop and they are transporting it to a Ford specialist but I'm just not sure this shop has the common sense issued needed.... My big concern is hoping the Superchip program is gonna be lost or if it is causing the shop to not be able to clear the faults.

 

I am a UK resident, where abouts are you, I can recommend a couple of specialists that could sort out your issues. PM me if you want some phone no's
One of them sorted out some complcated electrical gremlins on my 07 Roush & I would not hesitate to use them again
