On my 2015 F150 that has issues with what FMC calls the "Forward Instrument Controller". I looks like a back up camera screen but is just the radio, CD controller and something else. It started sputtering some time back and finally gave up a couple of weeks ago. now screen is all black. I took it to Ford house and they said not repairable and new one is $1200 plus will need to be hooked to the main shop computor in shop tp program,,,another $250,,,, anyone here ever worked on one of these or know where I might save one off another trk,,,?? TIA,,,,

Any salvage yards in your neck of the woods? Ooops, your patch of the desert? ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

| Joe I have no experience with stuff that new but I am wondering what that salvage yard up in Missouri would have and if they started opening back up on Saturdays? |

Hey there Good Buddy,,, sure am glad to hear from youse. Chit,,I shoulda known better as in cases like this you best get your waitin pants on and plan to go sit in their office and wait your turn,,,, these guys are so dang busy,,,they ain't got time to answer phone calls,,,and have even less time to go look,,they want YOU to go look then pay for the part and get your tools and remove the part and hope it does work when you bolt it up in your trk,,,,,, I did talk to David at the Cassville yard that you and I went to and he said they did not have anything that new, but would check with the yard in Fayetville,,,,, He ain't called me back ,,,,yet,,,,
