wrench light

Hey folks'
I have a gas engine 2011 450 Itaska motor home. It is brand new with only 2500 miles on it. Last fri had it out towing a jeep about 30 miles after getting a hitch installed and the wrench light came on . It is in limp mode I think and the check engine light is on steady. After setting a while on re start the engine light stays on and then the wrench comes back on and the engine seems to have a slight miss. While pulling the jeep it was in tow mode and the gauges were all normal till the wrench light came on.

The local Ford house is backed up for 10 days, so just looking for any answers, I sure as heck can't fix it.
Thanks

Don

Well, without a scanner to check the codes (and there will be some stored), there's not much you can do. Wait until tomorrow morning and see if you can get the codes read at a local Advance Auto, Auto Zone, O'Reilly's, etc. Alternatively, you could just wait until the dealer can get it in. It is still under warranty isn't it?

In the interim, I'm moving your thread to the Full-Size Van forum. Maybe someone here can offer some solutions.

Oh, and welcome to FTE.
