wrench idicator light
First off, first post for the new truck ( '15 F150 lariat crew 5.0). Love the truck, sold 06' F350 lariat crew 6.0 and miss it but this truck is great. Now back to the question:
right before accelerating to get on highway wrench indicator light came on and noted see manual.
On high way was light on power and when I came to a stop the tranny did not want to down shift, it stayed in 3rd gear until I stepped on the gas to accelerate then there was a "thud" and it shifted into 1st.
At the shop now but is this just a tranny sensor?

Wrench Light is slightly different than a CEL. It's surprising and also not surprising there wasn't a stored code.
Tough to say what caused the engine (light on power) or the trans (stuck in 3rd) to go into a "limp" mode.
From my experience on 6.0 Powerstrokes, it could be anything from under/overboost, stuck shift solenoid or a malfunctioning trans temp sensor.
Again, bummer there wasn't a code otherwise it will be grasping at straws as to the cause.
