Dash Board

Asked by GuruV5PM2 Aug 07, 2018 at 09:38 AM about the 1998 Ford F-150 STD SB

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

While driving, my dashboard will drop out, the speedometer won't be effected
but the full drops to empty, the temp shoots to high, the oil drops to low and the
battery drops to low. It doesn't effect the operation.  It's a manual trans so I can
shut off and restart while driving, but after 15 or so minutes it happens again.

Check your ground. Fords used to have a connection in the middle of the negative cable that served as the chassis ground.
