WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford Pickup, 2005 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2005 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Q1 VERIFY TURN SIGNAL OPERATION
- Verify the RH turn signal operation.
- Does the RH turn signal operate correctly?
- Yes : GO to Q2.
- No : REFER to EXTERIOR LIGHTING to continue diagnosis of the turn signals.
Q2 CHECK CIRCUIT 2 (WH/LB) FOR VOLTAGE
- Disconnect: Instrument Cluster C220a.
- Key in ON position.
- Place the multifunction switch in the RH turn signal position.
- Measure the voltage between the instrument cluster C220a-3, circuit 2 (WH/LB), harness side and ground.

- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : GO to Q4.
- No : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
Q4 CHECK FOR CORRECT INSTRUMENT CLUSTER OPERATION

  - corrosion
  - pushed-out pins
- Connect all the instrument cluster connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
- Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
- Is the concern still present?
