2003 FORD F650 reset

Do not drive or continue to drive if the low air pressure buzzer
is sounding or the brake warning light is lit. These warnings
indicate that air pressure is not to normal operating level. Continued
use of the vehicle could result in loss of braking ability.
Avoid repeated light application of the brake pedal. This will
deplete air pressure faster and could result in loss of braking
capability.
Periodically check the air pressure
gauge while driving. Pressure should
range between approximately 724 to
930 kPa (105-135 psi). The air
compressor governor cut-in and
cut-out pressure settings are preset
at the factory and are not
adjustable.
When air pressure is insufficient
(below 414 kPa [60 psi]), a warning
light illuminates and a buzzer
sounds when the ignition is in the
ON position.
This condition may be caused by excessive brake applications depleting
the system air pressure. If this condition occurs, stop driving the vehicle
until the compressor has fully recharged the air system. Do not move the
vehicle in this condition because the brake system may be inoperative.
Select a gear ratio to help slow your vehicle before descending grades.
Supplement with brakes as required to safely slow the vehicle and avoid
overspeeding the engine.
Air chamber stroke indication
All Ford air chamber push rods have orange stroke indicator stripes that
alert the operator when the braking system requires adjustment or
repair. The orange stripe is painted on the air chamber push rod at the
slack adjuster readjustment stroke dimension.
Air brake inspection and adjustment should be performed by a qualified
service technician in accordance with the instructions in the Ford Truck
Service Manual.

When the yellow indicator on the air
filter restriction indicator reaches
the red line, the air filter element
should be replaced.
Each time the air filter element is
replaced, reset the air filter
restriction indicator by pressing the
red button.
Servicing the air filter
Your vehicle is equipped with a dry-type air cleaner element. When the
yellow indicator on the air filter restriction indicator reaches the red line
the air filter element should be replaced.

Maintenance and Specifications

•If your vehicle is equipped
with the 7.3L Power Stroke
engine,it will be necessary to
remove the air filter element from
the filter housing by moving the
exposed end of the filter element
down and to the rear of the
vehicle, then lifting the other end
of the filter element up and out
of the engine compartment.
•If your vehicle is equipped with the Cummins B engine,a
secondary air filter is located the bottom of the air filter housing to
keep dirt and debris from falling into the engine when the air filter
element is being removed. This secondary filter needs to be replaced
only after the primary air filter element has been replaced several
times. If necessary replace the secondary air filter.
5. Reach inside the air filter housing and clean the outlet tube where it
extends into the housing. Be sure not to damage the tube because the
air filter element seals around this surface.
6. Check to be sure that the drain hole in the air filter housing is open
and clear of any dirt and debris.
7. Check to be sure the new air filter element is not damaged, then
install it. Make sure there is a tight seal (apply pressure at the outer rim
of the element, not the flexible center).
8. Align the air filter cover latches with the holes in the air filter housing
and install the cover.
9. Push in on the cover latches, then turn the latches clockwise 90
degrees. Make sure that all air filter cover latches are fully engaged.
10. Reset the air filter restriction indicator.

components and repair as necessary.
SERVICING YOUR WHEELS AND TIRES
Wheel assembly
Your vehicle is fitted with hub
piloted wheels and two-element
swiveling lug nuts (20 & 22 mm).
Do not use taper type wheels or ball
seat wheel nuts.
•Do not paint the mating face of the hub/drum.
•Do not paint the two-element swiveling lug nuts or wheel stud.
•Do not allow an excessive thickness of paint to build between the disc
wheel mounting surfaces.
•Do not install disc wheels where the paint has not fully cured.
•At wheel changes, ensure mounting faces are clean and free of rust,
dirt and excess paint.
If fasteners are needed, use only Ford recommended replacement parts.
•To maintain the desired
torque/tension relation between
nut body and flange, it is
necessary to use clean engine oil
meeting Ford specification
WSS-M2C153-G between nut body and flange. Lubricate the nut body
and flange any time a wheel is removed.
The M20 & M22 wheel nuts are right-hand threads. Refer to the
following chart for approved wheel lug nut torque.
Wheel type Bolt size Wheel nut torque
10-hole disc 285.75

The disc wheel nuts on your vehicle were tightened before delivery.
Recheck torque of nuts at 160 km (100 miles) and 800 km (500 miles) of
new vehicle operation or any time a wheel is removed. Reset to
recommended torque levels.

If fuses burn out
Burned-out or“blown-out”fuses or circuit breaker tripping (if equipped)
usually indicate an electrical short circuit, although a fuse may
occasionally fail from vibration. Insert a second fuse or reset the breaker
(if equipped). If this fuse immediately burns out or the breaker (if
equipped) trips and you cannot locate the fuse, return your vehicle to
your dealer for a circuit check.
If lamp bulbs burn out
Repeated lamp burn-out usually indicates a loose connection, either at
the lamp socket, the system ground or a malfunctioning voltage
regulator. If examination does not indicate the cause of the trouble,
return your vehicle to your dealer for inspection.
If headlamps flash on and off
If headlamps flash on and off at regular intervals, the system circuit
breaker (if equipped) is operating, indicating a short circuit or overload.
Take your vehicle to your dealer for a circuit check.
