Recently my 2019 F250 display has gone bonkers, it used to stay on the selected screen, now when I turn the key on it randomly goes to other screens. Example I normally have it set to show the trip, miles to empty, etc. Now when I turn on the key it will go to tire pressure, or one of the other settings. Anyone now what would cause this?

Bad battery/batteries will cause all kinds of screwy electrical/electronic issues.
So, I suggest getting the batteries tested, load tested, not just voltage.
And, if it is dual batteries, remember that at least one battery needs to be disconnected before testing each battery.
I just had issues with my truck and replaced both batteries, now on the third set since new.

The battery is about 1 year old, it starts fine, I will put a load test on it to verify.

I'm happy to hear you enjoy life without batteries so much. But doesn't hand cranking the Model T and having to individually light the carbide headlamps get old sometimes?

Being happy that someone has an issue with their vehicle is pretty sad. You should find a forum for your 1971 Vega and discuss how happy you are with the lack of creature comforts.

I think you're missing two letters in your username...

I took my F250 in yesterday for an oil change and talked to the service manager about the display going crazy, he said it would cost $150.00 to flash the computer, and then it might not solve the problem. He stated if the flash didn't solve it, most likely computer would have to be replaced, i did a quick pass ono flashing the computer. When
I got home I decided to disconnect the battery for about 5 minutes and reconnected, Vola, the display is working again.
I called the service manager and gave him the news, his reply was "good to know"
