Interior electronic failure ANYONE?
2018 F150 Platinum has a total interior electronic system failure today. You name it, if it has a button to press, it does not work. Truck has a whopping 4,100 miles on it. 3.5L crew cab. The vehicle ignition works and drives fine, sans the turn signals, wipers, heater, A/C, windows, front camera etc. The radio works as well but I can't turn it off. Nice.
Has anyone had this issue? Maybe a master type fuse? Any help would be useful.
Regards,
DH

If still under warranty, take it to the dealership. They should be able to figure it out since its not an intermittent problem.
Even if it is a blown fuse, its likely it'll blow again if replaced.

Sounds like a APIM gone bad. Pretty common problem. Most likely after sitting with truck off, next time turned on everything will work. Take it in to dealer and let the game start. They will look at it and tell you found no codes, cant duplicate the problem and to bring it in while its doing it. If it happens again during dealer hours take it in without shutting truck down until they see it happen.Word of caution when they do order a APIM be prepared as they are usually on back order. Took over # weeks to get mine when replaced. Good luck!

I started to list all the items in the interior that don't work. Literally everything inside isn't working except for the ignition. I can't imagine it would be a SYNC issue but I'm a fireman, not a Ford tech. Thank you to everyone that's replied so far.

Same thing happened to me, but it has only happened once. One day I started the truck and ALL electronics shut off and were unresponsive. I just put it in gear and started driving and all the electronics came back on..which was good because I didn't know how fast I was going.
