I notice when you start my 04 sd up while holding the trip reset in there are a bunch of readings that come from the odometer ????????

 

They are documented in the shop manual, not the owners manual that came with the truck but the aftermarket manual from Helm, Inc. Hopefully some nice guy has typed them all in and will post a web link to the info here.

A lot of self test info, the diagnostic test codes, digital rpm, etc.

 

cool

 

Don't know if it is the same on a F150 gasser, but here they are for that...

Of course, the way to enter the diagnostic mode on the instrument cluster is to depress and hold the instrument cluster (Trip odometer) SELECT/RESET button, turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, and then continue pressing the SELECT/RESET button (5 seconds) until tESt is displayed in the odometer. The SELECT/RESET button must be released within 3 seconds of the odometer tESt display to begin the dealer test mode.

Depress the SELECT/RESET button to advance through the following steps until dtc is displayed. Depressing the SELECT/RESET button will display any stored continuous DTCs before proceeding to the next step.

Odometer Display Description

GAGE Activates gauge sweep of all gauges, then displays present gauge values. Also carries out the checksum tests on ROM and EE. If the gauge sweep is inoperative, INSTALL a new instrument cluster.

All segments illuminated Illuminates all odometer segments. If any odometer segment is inoperative INSTALL a new instrument cluster.

bulb Illuminates all micro-controlled indicators and LEDs. Install a new indicator or LED as necessary.

r Returns to normal operation of all micro-controlled indicators and LEDs and displays hexadecimal value for ROM level. (used when requesting assistance from the hotline). If alternating flashes for FAIL and ROM level are displayed, INSTALL a new instrument cluster.

EE Displays the hexadecimal value for EE level (used when requesting assistance from hotline). If alternating flashes of FAIL and EE level are displayed replace instrument cluster.

dt Displays hexadecimal coding of final manufacturing test date (used when requesting assistance from hotline).

dtc Displays continuous DTC's in hexadecimal format. Pressing the SELECT/RESET button will display any DTCs stored before proceeding to the next step.

enG Displays the English speed in MPH. Speedometer will indicate present speed within tolerances. Display will show 0 if input in not received. If input is invalid for one second or more, or if speed is 0.

m Displays the metric speed data in kph. Speedometer will indicate present speed within tolerances. Display will show 0 if input in not received. If input is invalid for one second or more, or if speed is 0.

tAc Displays the tachometer data received from the PCM via the SCP network within tolerances. Tachometer will indicate present RPM. Display will show 0 if input is no received, if input received is invalid for one second or more, or if engine RPM is 0.

FUEL Displays the code (0-255) for the fuel sender input to the HEC. The fuel gauge will display a filtered fuel level value. This filter will keep the pointer from moving suddenly or erratically.
255 open send +/- 0
232 full stop +/- 0
215 Full mark +/- 10
178 3/4 mark +/- 8
138 1/2 mark +/- 7
93 1/4 mark +/- 5
41 E mark +/- 4
54 Low Fuel (0-59)
0-18 short (0-20 max)

OIL Displays the code (0-250) for the oil pressure switch input to the HEC. Oil pressure gauge will indicate present oil pressure. Normal oil pressure (greater than 6psi) will display a value between 000 and 176. A low oil pressure or an inoperative engine oil pressure switch (less than 6 psi) will display a value greater than 176.

dEGC Display of engine temperature in Degrees C input from cylinder head temperature sensor.
49 C "C" mark
60 C Normal band start
120 C Normal band end
-40 C No SCP message for 5 seconds

bAtt Displays the code (0-255) for the battery voltage input to the HEC. Battery voltage gauge will indicate present battery voltage. 93-102 6.2-9.1 volts, low voltage
115-124 8.5-10.7 volts, Normal band start
215-225 15.8-18 volts, Norm band end
230-241 16.9-19.1 volts, high voltage

rhEo Displays the present decimal rheostat dimming input, 0-255 (used when requesting assistance from the hotline)

rhi, rhS, rho Not used.

Cr Displays the current RUN/START sense input. Display will show -h for high input with the ignition switch in the START position and -L for low input with the ignition switch in the RUN position.

PA-PE7 not used.

GAGE Repeats the display cycle

Any idea if this code is important? I have this on my truck almost all the time. Only time i didn't have it (said none in the DTC readout) was for a few days after the dealer did some work and cleared the codes that were there. The D262 came back within a few days. I had them clear it out again (told them the check light came on, it didn't) so they would check things again. They told me there was no codes stored, only a "soft error" was present. The readout was showing "none" after this, and sure enough, the D262 came back again in a few days and has remained. A code reader plugged into the OBD port shows no codes under this condition.

 

Doesn't this only work if you have a digital dash, or does it work on an analog version?

 

I believe on Superduties and Xs it's a "2002 and newer" thing.

The list above looks close. But I know there is one code that says what seatbelts are fastened and which doors are open also.

 

Just tested it, it does work with the analog instruments and a digital odometer. COOL!

 

Question,

I am having trouble with erratic reading with my fuel guage. What exactaly does the fuel guage part of this test procedure do? Says something about if you have erratic readings. Could this be a fix? I paid a ford stealership $85 bucks to say they couldn't get it to act up!

THanks

 

I have the same code, anybody know what it is?? I also have a477 which isn't listed.
