2023 Ford F-150 Maintenance & Specs

Some 2022-2023 F-150 Lightning vehicles may exhibit a ting, pop or clicking noise from the front or rear wheel hub when accelerating or applying brakes or when shifting between drive/reverse (torque reversals). This condition may be caused by stick/slip between the hub and half shaft interface, during the torque reversals creating the ting/pop or clicking noise. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure to install the new anti-ting washer between the wheel hub and axle shaft and reassemble.

Some 2021-2023 F-150 vehicles may experience a lack of steering assist upon start-up along with a Steering Assist Fault message in the instrument panel cluster (IPC) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) U3001:89 and U3000:96 in the power steering control module (PSCM). This may be due to low voltage at the PSCM. Power steering assist will be restored when sufficient voltage is supplied. To clear the DTCs using the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS), select and run the PSCM - Reset the Power Steering Control Module (PSCM) application. Once cleared, cycle the ignition to verify normal system operation. If the DTCs return, refer to Workshop Manual Section 211-02 for normal diagnostics. For claiming, use causal part 3504.

Some Ford and Lincoln vehicles may exhibit noise when the brakes are applied. When diagnosing and repairing brake noise conditions, use the Workshop Manual (WSM) and the appropriate pinpoint test in section 206-00. The brake rotors should only be machined if directed by the WSM because one or more of the following conditions are present on the braking surface: scoring, excessive corrosion/rust or pitting, bluing/discoloration and/or heat spots. For additional information, refer to WSM section 206-00.
