Fuel Module?
I have an 03 f250 6.0. two months ago the water light was flickering on and off and then went steady yellow. Went to dealer, said it was a sensor that has gone bad. It was replaced. Just recently the same thing happened. Just came back from dealer again today. Fuel filters were replaced, sensor was working fine. Service tech states it could be a fuel module that needs to be replaced. The diesel mech is backed up for two weeks, states truck will run fine. The question is, is this a component that I can change my self and will the light go off. Also, is this part located on the top of the engine somewhere and easy to get at. $500 seems like an awful lot for something I could possibly do cheaper and faster.

driver side frame rail, right behind the front door. Its the brass plug with a hex head in it. almost impossible to remove the brass plug once it starts to corrode. let the dealer install one under the 100,000 diesel warranty, 100 deductible.

Thanks, I have already had the sensor replaced once by an out of town dealer. Home town dealer said sensor was fine but the module needs to be replaced. Water light is still on with new fuel filters. There diesel mech is two weeks backlogged. Just wondering if dealer is yanking my chain. Should try another dealer or do it myself.

I bet he is backlogged if they only have one diesel guy. I would try another dealer if there is one close by. How much are the parts?
