F250 check engine

Has anyone ever had an F250 have the check engine lights, and other lights on the dash blink, then stop, sometimes the tow haul light will blink and as this happens it turns off and all power is gone, as if the battery was disconnected. Well I disconnected the battery and it fired right up like nothing was wrong.

If there were codes, when you disconnected the battery they were erased. If it happens again you might want to have a computer scan done to check for codes.
