Sorry for missing that info! it's a Ford E-150 (2010) recent purchase
the last 2 photos, from research, seem to be SHIFT INTERLOCK SOLENOID > any idea how to verify is working?
I can't seem to find electric diagrams and schematic for this vehicle >> if anyone would like to post/send images or pdf VERY WELCOME

and the others I have no clue yet > specially for the two in the dashboard

I also found out the ac power blower regulator (the turning dial blue /red) being melted, with cooked wires > any better solution, not to have this happen again??

thanks for helping

The shift interlock solenoid if working with key on allows the transmission shift lever to be pulled out of Park---if that's not working then the solenoid isn't receiving power for some reason.

A book or wiring schematics or EVTM for your year E-Series is available here: 2010 E-Series EVTM. That price is kinda crazy but its just about the only one I could find. Here's another that includes the Work Shop Manual for a slightly better price: 2010 EVTM & WSM. Bang for the buck would have me going with the second link.

Do keep in mind these schematics are very year specific.

You're welcome to post wiring diagrams in the Electrical & Wiring sub-forum--someone might have them ready to share.

I have a 2010 E350 and just had the dash off. I can offer this much...

Finding an official Ford wiring diagram is worthwhile money. I just got the wiring diagram, volume 1 and 2 workshop manual and the emissions control and diagnostic manual for $99 on FleaBay. The wiring manual is fantastic. You can search by what the plug looks like, where its located, or what circuit it is part of.
