after a little more lookin todat i noticed that the warning light is not on when i first start the truck but it comes on after a few min of ideling ???? any help

 

Did you try to pull the release, and pull up on the brake pedal ?

I sometimes catch my pant leg on the brake pedal and it clicks 1 notch and sets the light.

This is if you are sure the brake fluid is full.

BTW did you have recall 05S28 done ?

 

thanks scully wish it was that simple weve looked at all the easy stuff now im tryin to find someone who knows the more obscure stuff Ill have to see about the recall dont know a lot about the truck just started drivin it recently what is the recall for ?? tyvm BB

 

The recall is for the leaking cruise control secondary safety switch.

This is the one where it can leak, and cause a high resistance load, igniting the brake fluid that has leaked out, igniting the whole truck.

Check the Ford site to see if you VIN still shows the recall as open, if it is, unplug the factory harness and zip tie it up, until you can get to a dealer ( Cruise won't work, but it will not light on fire either ).

 

might not be a big issue if this truck burnt lol would save me a lot of work still got the brake light problem now theres a fuel leak at the rail at the rear injector on the drivers side any ideas on how hard this is to fix
