buzzed

I have a 2007 f350 6.0l 4wd crew cab single rear wheel and the Brake light on the dash as well as the 4 wheel hi and low light come on at random times and will stay on for sometimes an hour at a time along with an awful buzzer sound.

any other ideas? Would low brake fluid cause the 4 wd and 4low light to come on as well. I have the truck at the local dealer they cant fix because some reason wont do it for them. At time it Brake 4 wheel and 4 lo come and the buzzer will go for hours. The truck still runs fine except odometer goes out and cruse control wont work when this is happening. Please any help out there

You may want to have a look at the two connectors that plug into the
instrument cluster. The tiny wares can get damaged and cause problems.

When it misbehaving can you get the cluster to do a self test and sweep all
the needles?


If you happen to have the message center then you need to use this set
of instructions found here. >>>
https://www.fordtaurus.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9753

Instrument Cluster Self-Diagnostic Mode

To enter the instrument cluster self-diagnostic mode with the ignition key in the OFF position, press and hold the
odometer/trip reset button (except message center cluster) or simultaneously press and hold the message center
RESET and SETUP buttons (message center cluster). Turn the key to the RUN position and hold until the display
indicates TEST, usually within 3 to 5 seconds. Press the RESET button once to advance through each stage of the self-test.
To exit the instrument cluster self-test mode, turn the ignition to the OFF position. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved
