E-450 Display Question

I recently purchased a motor home on a E-450 chasse. The year model is 2013... I noticed the display does not have all the items (display screens) the manual speaks of. Wondered if they disabled the selections due to it being shipped as a chasse to the RV Mfg...And if so can Ford turn them back on?

Hi jam105,

I checked out your Owner's Manual (3rd Printing) and found the display options you're referring to starting on page 84. Some of the options (such as Compass and Oil Life) are listed as "if equipped". If your vehicle is not equipped with these options, they will not appear in your display. If you believe your vehicle should be equipped with these options, give your local dealership a call and they'll be happy to help you out.

Hi jam105,

I checked the Order Guide for the 2013 E-450. The Instrument Panel Electronic Message Center is listed as optional for the cutaway van and is not available for the stripped chassis. Let me know if you have any other questions!
