Dash issues

[Greger]

I have a 2006 f150 fx4 and just turned a corner and my entire dash shut off then came back on and now my fuel gauge reads empty and says I have low fuel. Any ideas from anyone?? Please help

Check your fuses, they are either in the glove box (open it and they will be on the roof of the compartment) or right below it. Also check the wires underneath the dash. Make sure everything is connected properly and no wires are in need of repair. Try that first then come back if everything checks out ok.

Try and get any excess dust off of the wires and connectors/plugs.

U go through any substantial water?

Everything looks fine and I shut the truck off for about 20 min then started it and drove home and about 10 min into the drive the gauge slowly started reading again

So no water?

[Greger]

No deffently not

Might have just been a freak thing, never heard of the dash just shutting off for a second, but the truck still running.

Me either. That's what scared me lol. And it did it twice so close together but since has been ok.. Hopfully just a glitch and nothin major

Hopefully, check everything again though to be sure. Come back if it happens again too.
