Today I turned my truck (2013 Raptor) on to go somewhere and I had three messages pop up on the screen.
* Check 4x4
* Hill descent control fault
* Check brake system
Trouble codes U0102, B1596, U0114
Earlier this week I ran a new power cable for my amp and when I touched it to the battery terminal it sparked, so I initially assumed I had just blown a fuse. I have checked every fuse that the truck has and all are good. What's funny is that when I installed my CAI months ago I forgot to plug up the cable going to the MAF sensor and I got the exact same errors. I checked that cable today and it seems fine. I have read forum after forum with other issues, but can't find anyome with this same problem. So I'm really not sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I have to drive it in 2 days to go out of town.
Clear the codes then disconnect the battery negative (-) cable for NO LESS than 15 minutes. Restart the truck and go for a drive to see if the errors come back. With those 2 network codes it sounds like it may have been an intermittent concern eg: spark from amp connection.
If the errors come back, a trip to the dealer you go.
I disconnected the battery for about 10 minutes earlier and after hooking it back up the messages came back. I will try it longer than 15 minutes though.
So I unplugged the battery for about 4 hours and I just plugged it back up and turned it on, and somehow added a new trouble code on top of the three I already had.
Just an update, I ended up dropping it off at the Ford dealership this morning and they called me this afternoon to tell me that there was a wire that was frayed close to the grommet going out the passenger side of the firewall. They repaired that wire and no longer is it showing any error messages.
