2001 FORD F650 ignition

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Air clean warning (if equipped)
Illuminates when the ignition is
turned to the ON position and the
engine is off. The light also
illuminates when the air system is
restricted (dirty, clogged).
Brake reserve system warning (if equipped)
Illuminates to indicate normal
Hydromax booster reserve system
activation when the engine is OFF
and the service brake pedal is
applied, or when the ignition is in
the ON or START position.
This light may also illuminate momentarily if the engine is running and
the driver turns the steering wheel fully in one direction while braking.
If the light remains on while the engine is running, this indicates
inadequate hydraulic booster pressure or reserve pump system failure.
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and seek service immediately.

Charging system
Illuminates when the ignition is
turned to the ON position and the
engine is off. The light also
illuminates when there is no
alternator output, or an over voltage
condition requiring electrical system service.
Brake system warning
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off. If the brake
warning lamp does not illuminate at
this time seek service immediately.
If equipped with a hydraulic brake system and the warning lamp remains
illuminated after engine start up, this indicates a brake system
malfunction. Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and seek service
immediately.
If equipped with an air brake system, the warning light stays on until the
air pressure builds up to 414 kPa (60 psi). If the air pressure drops
below 414 kPa (60 psi) during operation, the remaining brake system is
still operational but the stopping distance will be greater.
Parking brake warning (Hydraulic brakes only)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off. Also
illuminates when the parking brake
is engaged. If the brake warning
lamp does not illuminate at these
times, seek service immediately.

High beams
Illuminates when the high beam
headlamps are turned on.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
and the engine is off. If the light
remains on after the vehicle is
started, continues to flash or fails to
illuminate, have the system serviced immediately. With the ABS light on,
the anti-lock brake system is disabled and normal braking is still effective
unless the brake warning light also remains illuminated.
Wait to start
Indicates the air intake heater is in
operation and special starting
procedures are required. Refer to
theStartingchapter.
If equipped with an air intake heater, DO NOT use ether or any
other starting fluids. The use of starting fluids (ether) in an
engine equipped with an air intake heater could result in damage
and/or personal injury.

Water in fuel (if equipped)
During refueling it is possible for
water-contaminated diesel fuel to be
pumped into your fuel tank. Your
vehicle fuel system is equipped with
a fuel filter/water separator to
remove water from the fuel. The
water in fuel indicator light illuminates when the fuel filter/water
separator has a significant quantity of water, or when the ignition key is
switched to the START position. If the light illuminates when the engine
is running, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, shut off the engine
and drain the filter bowl. Allowing water to stay in the system could
result in extensive damage to, or failure of, the fuel injection system.
To drain the fuel filter/water separator (refer toMaintenance and Care
section for procedure). Rotate the valve at the bottom of the filter
assembly allowing water to drain from the system. Close the valve upon
completion.
Do not drain water separator while engine is running. Fuel may
ignite if separator is drained while engine is running or vehicle is
moving.
Check trans (Allison automatic transmission)
The lamp will illuminate for several
seconds after the ignition is turned
to the ON position. Illumination of
this light indicates that a problem
has been detected and shifting may
be restricted. Depending upon the
severity of the problem, the read-out digit on the shifter display may be
blank. Operation may continue in order or reach service assistance. The
ECU may not respond to shift selector requests, since operating
limitations are being placed on the transmission, i.e. upshifts and
downshifts may be restricted. Direction changes will not occur.
Refer to the Transnission Operator's Manual for more information.

Safety belt
Momentarily illuminates when the
ignition is turned to the ON position
to remind you to fasten your safety
belts. For more information, refer to
theSeating and safety restraints
chapter.
Service engine soon
TheService Engine Soonindicator
light illuminates when the ignition is
first turned to the ON position to
check the bulb. If it comes on after
the engine is started, one of the
engine's control systems may be
malfunctioning. The light may illuminate without a driveability concern
being noted. The vehicle will usually be drivable and will not require
towing.
Temporary malfunctions may cause yourService Engine Soonlight to
illuminate. Examples are:
1. The vehicle has run out of fuel. (The engine may misfire or run
poorly.)
2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.
These and other temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the
fuel tank with good quality fuel. After three driving cycles without these
or any other temporary malfunctions present, theService Engine Soon
light should turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup
followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is
required.
If theService Engine Soonlight remains on, have your vehicle serviced
at the first available opportunity.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the fuel system, interior floor coverings or other
vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

ACC position and the driver's door is opened.
Headlamps on warning chime
Sounds when the headlamps or parking lamps are on, the ignition is off
(and the key is not in the ignition) and the driver's door is opened.
Safety belt warning chime
Sounds to remind you to fasten your safety belts.
For information on the safety belt warning chime, refer to theSeating

For information on the safety belt minder chime, refer to theSeating
and safety restraintschapter.
Parking brake warning chime Ð F650 SuperCrewzer Only
Sounds when the yellow parking brake knob is pulled and the parking
brake is not functioning properly.
For information on the praking brake warning chime, refer to the
Praking brake (SuperCrewzer Only)in theHydraulic brakessection

GAUGES
Fuel gauge
Displays approximately how much
fuel is in the fuel tank (when the
key is in the ON position). The fuel
gauge may vary slightly when the
vehicle is in motion or after
refueling. The ignition should be in
the OFF position while the vehicle is
being refueled. When the gauge first
indicates empty, there is a small
amount of reserve fuel in the tank.
When refueling the vehicle from an empty indication, the amount of fuel
that can be added will be less than the advertised capacity due to the
reserve fuel.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
Indicates the temperature of the
engine coolant. At normal operating
temperature, the needle remains
within the normal area (the area
between the ªHº and ªCº). If it
enters the red section, the engine is
overheating. Stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, switch off
the engine immediately and let the
engine cool. Refer toEngine
coolantin theMaintenance and
carechapter.

This shows the battery voltage when
the ignition is in the ON position. If
the pointer moves and stays outside
the normal operating range (as
