Agggggg!!! Had the GEM module replaced at a local shop.Everything fine for a week, then the dome light starts blinking on and off at a regular pace, therefore it is trying to tell me something. It only happens when I turn on the ignition. If the ignition is off the dome light will come on...

I forgot one important detail the CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM message has appeared and the icon for the brakes is on.Also fuse panel on this truck is on passenger side kick panel. Is the GEM there?

Thanks for the tips! YelloThumbUp

Does one fuse control headlights, power windows and transmission park control? I listed what works and what doesn't work. So why do all of the dash lights remain on all the time?

Our 2012 F-450 ambulance has an issue with the cab air conditioner blower. Sometimes it works just fine and you can switch between floor or dash or combo of vent selections. Then at other times nothing flows thru the dash vents even tho the blower is on high.Sometimes shutting down the...

Started 2010 F-450 ambulance and could not shift out of park. Motor starts Brake lights work Headlights will not work Wipers work Dash lights will not go out even after setting overnight A/C-Heater blower works Windows will not go up or downWhat is going on? Is there a fuse or...

I like your explaination. Just for the record $1,900+ to repair. They have to pull the front off to get to the A/C compressor. Talk about a MONEY PIT!!!!

Well guess what...we picked up the ambulance and drove it back to squad house and put it back in service. It rotates back in service every three weeks. Today while in its second day of being in service we turned on the air conditioner (first hot day in which we needed A/C) and it blew up...

Any recommendations on a trustworthy Ford dealership within 75 miles of Lynchburg VA?

We picked up the repaired ambulance and drove it back 23 miles to the station. Upon arriving we noticed a trail of oil while backing it into the station. Overnight additional oil accumulated in the drip pan under the ambulance. When we raised the hood to check the oil level we discovered the...

Thanks for the info.

Is it now100% International design/engineering? Years ago they got in a pissing contest over the 6.0 I believe.

Thanks blacksnapon!Wow, a $6,770.00 charge because an engineer/designer didn't think wires needed protecting. Every agency in our area has experienced some kind of major engine troubles with the Ford chassis. We thought we had "dodged the bullet" but alas we have had two major repairs. We...

Blacksnapon, thanks for responding.It has a 6.4 engine. It is a truck (ambulance chassis) Other than initial call from service manager I have no idea as to what the codes are. She said it was turbo pump. I will try to get clarification tomorrow. 5,000 labor and 1,700 parts. They better...

We had an ambulance go down while on a call. It was sitting on the scene running and when the crew returned to the ambulance it had stopped running. The battery was still powerful to turn the engine over but it would not start. There was a image of a wrench beside the odometer. Had vehicle...

2012 Ford F-450 Super Duty Osage ambulance

Sorry took so long to post picture. It's been in service 1-1/2 years now. Can't figure out how to post a picture here. Added it to my picks in gallery.

Thanks for confirmation.Fuel storage tank was filled by dealer Monday morning and our vehicle was only one filled from the tank that evening. Fuel Dealer was called Tuesday morning and they found only a half inch of water in bottom of tank and drew that off.They are going by Ford dealer and...

This vehicle is a Type 1 ambulance and has bout 70,000 miles on it.Filled it up Monday night with about 10 gals of Diesel fuel. Drove it back a tenth of a mile and parked it. Four hours later started it up to make a run and we idled it for about 2 minutes and pulled out. Got about 2 yards...

I am having the same problem with a 2008 F-450 Super Duty ambulance. Where do the codes show up? Do I need a code reader or do they appear on the dash panel?

What alternative to buying FORD brand?

We have placed our new FORD-F450 ambulance in service. I need to add coolant to it. Does the 2012 - 6.7 Powestroke engine require a special coolant? Owners Guide states WSS-M79B44-D or Ford vc-3-B.What type/brand do you guys recommend?

This has a 7.3 engine. It is a Type I ambulance. The problem has existed for over six years. It will occur once and then go away for months. Each time it has happened we have taken it to front end shops and they have replaced tie rods, ball joints and now drag link.It seems to occur when...

It has all season tires, nothing special. Standard Ford wheels. There has been no modifications to suspension. Does have stainless steel wheel covers.Last week the front-end guy replaced the "drag link". I suppose you guys may know what that is, I didn't.

On occassion my F-350 two wheel drive vehicle will go into a very severe jerking motion at arround 35 miles per hour after making a turn or for no reason at all driving stright down the road. I have had front end people look it over and have had tie rod ends replaced twice. I can make it do...

Late response to our post, but the next day I started it up and no warning message. Also took it out for a long hard run and didn't have any warnings or reduced power. Problem has gone away.Thanks for the responses.

We have a 2010 F-450 ambulance that has 5,961 miles on it. The REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHT HAS COME ON. Why is this and what can I do to correct the problem. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
