hi, i recently bought a 2001 f150 supercrew. 4x4 5.4L engine. Its got a 5 inch lift and 35s.

when i bought it the 4x4 worked (tested it myself). cruise control fuse was blown. when it snowed hard here i put it in 4 low to get up a hill and then it got stuck in 4 low. we had to manually put it back into 2wd. now it wont go into 4 hi or 4 low (no clicking noises even). any ideas?

also the electrical problem. the cruise control doesn't work after replacing the fuse. neither does the overhead console? all the fuses look good.
please help!

ALSO: after the 4x4 stopped working... everytime i start the truck it clicks 4 or 5 times in the dash sounds like behind the speedo? (loud clicks)

 

the overhead consoles as far I know they are known to not work correctly, have you tested power to it?

 

i probabbly will try that today. theres no screws to unscrew it ? so do i just rip it off or what?

 

anyone any ideas?

 

The "clicking behind the Guages indicate to me a relay might be bad or battery voltage is off

 

Check fuse #23, top right... Check it good, even swap it just to see.... I've seen good looking fuses that are busted

 

If the 4wd wasn't used much the motors are known for sticking give it a wack with a hammer while switching it usually losen it up the cruise there is a recall for the switch on the master cylinder it leaks then cruse won't work replace the switch and there is a jumper harness update should take are of that issue

 

Lol I wouldn't say rip it down...but it has plastic clips holding it up,it does have 1 screw holding it toward the front of it,thengently grap the front of it between the head liner tear the Mother out!! nah just kidding.. if you pull down on it should come fairly easy.. good luck

 

for the cruise control. how much would something like this cost if i got it done at the ford dealership? or is it hard to do yourself?

 

ok i got it off... what should i be looking for?
