reset button?
I was wiring my XM radio yesterday and was looking under the dash, there is a 2 inch metal bracket (not painted) with some kind of spring loaded switch in the middle of it located about 4 inches to the right of the emergengy brake pedal does anyone know what this is for?

Tank...nice looking Flareside RC!
The fuel pump reset should be in the RIGHT side kick panel (by pax foot).
The bracket you're talking about doesn't have ANYTHING in it on my truck!?!? Do you have adjustable pedals? I'm trying to think of what accy's you might have (that I don't) to warrant putting such a thing in there. My wiring diagram doesn't give any clues as to what might be installed there. Sure is a wonder.

It's your "warranty switch." Ford knows you didn't buy the extended warranty, so at 36001 miles this switch trips and EVERYHING starts to go wrong. Now, if you HAD purchased the warranty, the dealer would have removed this switch before delivery. And only your dealer knows how to safely remove it....

Just kidding, I have no clue how you dealt with your dealer.
My advice to the folks who have had problems with their F-150's it was the leprechaun that did it. Blame the Irish!!
