self test?

does anyone else use the self test feature on the 03+ expys. i was reading in the superduty forum about how those trucks have them and just to see if it would work in my expy i tried it and much to my surprise it works.you can test a ton of stuff you can even see the rpm's and voltage. what are all the codes i see when i use it it pops up a bunch of pc 0002 codes.

Can you elaborate a bit on how you are doing it? Using a scan tool or built in functions in the vehicle?

I have done this on my 99' I am sure it is was less info than yours. The only ones I could figure out were speed, fuel tank total, and engine fuel in pounds per hour. On the 99' you hold both buttons on the overhead console while starting the truck then use the left button to page through screens. And for anyone that wants to try this I have never screwed anything up.

Its way cool but what do all those parameters mean. The only one i figured out on my 98 was the total gas tank capacity. Any help please?

My '02 SVT Focus would do this too. I could scroll through digital tach, speedo, fuel pressure, all kinds of stuff. A lot of it was just diagnostic type stuff though. The digital tach was good for track days, so I could squeeze every bit of power on the straights before shuttin' it down for the twisties. Someone had a complete list for all the stuff it displayed, I'm sure the same list is out there for the Expy's.
