Hello People!
I have a 1997 F-150 4x2,Reg Cab,4.2 V6. One month ago the original Motorcraft battery died after a nice 5 years and 10 months of service. Yes, you heard right: almost six years. I still have it at home as a good luck charm in my garage.
The thing is, that after replacing, ALL my gauges,except the voltage gauge, have gone crazy. The fuel gauge goes to a different position every time I start the truck, even though I haven't moved it, the oil pressure and the temperature gauges are OK at a time and suddenly go up and down like the odometer, and recently I was doing 60 on the highway and the speedometer dropped to zero.
Do you have any suggestions?
Where should I start looking?
Thanks
Robb
