Default AutoLamps on 05 STR

Strange problems when turning Left.

Seems like everytime I turn on my Left turn signal I get a Autolamps 2:00 / :30 / :10 message on my message center.


Anyone ever see this problem ?
I'm thinking it may need a replacment turn signal bar ?

Yikes.... Since the headlamp switch and turnsignal are on the same stalk that would be the first thing I checked / replaced. Is the sequence of the messages exactly what you are seeing? I ask since that is the sequence the switch takes as you move up from the lowest position through the auto lamp settings.... Weird... It's like it is cycling the switch through the flasher... Are the messages showing in time with the flasher?

I'd be pretty sure they will. It covers faulty electrical components. Make sure you can easily replicate the issue and show the service writer exactly what it is doing.

Default It's covered

Never seen one that wasn't the switch. It is covered by select edition warranty.

My dealer principle bought an absolutely huge Ford store in Florida and I was spending time there helping with the change over and was way too busy for anything else. I'm back home now so I should be able to spend some more time on the forums.
