Hey All-
I picked up my 14' Sport with 402a package this weekend and I am pleased with the truck and geeking out over the technology. Three things have occurred and wondered if anyone has experienced this.
1. Instrument cluster screens can take between 30 sec - 2 mins to 'turn on'. This started to happen after I began adding / adj. preferences. As such, I'm assuming it's software related and has something to do with user preferences but I'm shooting in the dark.
2. While filling up this evening , the 8" screen was on and indicating it was performing scheduled maintenance. It only took 2-3 mins. However, on truck restart the cluster screens flickered and the right screen turned on and the left stayed black for the ride home (20mins). When I got home I shut the truck off, opened the door and restarted the engine and both LCD screens were working. They still take the same amount of time to activate.
3. The right cluster screen looses connection with radio artist and song when starting the truck. The fix is to change the channel and it once again communicates with the 8" screen until the next start.
I really love what ford has done with the system and my problems are prob. mild as compared to others but was curious if I'm experiencing ver. 3.5.1 bugs or hardware issues or a combo of the two.
