Got up yesterday and fired up the truck only to find that the power windows, the moon roof, speedometer, overhead lights, and courtesy lights are all inop.

Has anyone ever experienced this before. The power locks and mirrors work along with all other instrumentation.

It's like a ghost took over!

Please help!!

Have you checked the fuses for them?
 






The ghost you talk about must work alternate days. One day your Ex then the next mine!! Yesterday I got in the truck, started it up fine...looked at the clock and it was back to 12:00!! Ok...no problem...reset the time but I noticed that the radio stations were still tuned in??!!??
After going where I had to go...got back in started up...clock is fine...Now the passenger side window doesn't go down??!!??!
This morning on the way to work I hit the button and the window went down no problem?
Somebody please tell me what's up with this!!!!
 






i'd say check the fuses.
if it was just one thing then maybe a switch went bad.

That's what mine was doing before it got really bad & doesn't want to start some of the time. I just made a post about it today. I'm going to try replacing my ignition. When my clock resets, it puts my radio stations on the default station but, the stations stored in memory are still there. God I'm hoping the new ignition fixes it, if not I've got an appt w/ford on Thursday.
