This error code popped up on my truck recently . The transmission will not go into gear no matter what gear shift selection. Revs like it is in neutral. I looked through some of the threads here to see if others had this problem as well. Some had something similar but with different fault codes and other error lights on their dash.
Thankfully when it first happened yesterday afternoon I was at a stop sign less than a mile from home. It went back in gear after a moment for me to limp the rest of the way home. Now this morning it does not even want to leave the driveway.
Talked to my local dealer already and they have an appointment to look at it this afternoon. Hoping something sorta simple like a bad actuator to be swapped out. I already had an appointment early next week for them to look at the tail light connector recall. Go figure this happens now.
The tow company showed up in less than half an hour after I called Ford's Roadside Assistance. Happy about that. Though I told them I was in no hurry and if someone was on the side of the road they are in more need than I am. Seems the corona virus has slowed their business down for the time being.
Is a sad sight seeing your truck being driven away on a flatbed. My truck is low mileage and been a great truck to have. Not given me any troubles so far up to this point. No rough shifting like some have experienced. Will let you know what the dealer says. Any others with a truck issue close to this?

Just got a call from the dealer a few hours later. Seems like it was a valve body in the transmission that was sticking. They have a new one on order and my truck should be good to go in a couple days.
