manufacturers to follow the recommendations of the Ford Incomplete Vehicle Manual, Ford Truck Body Builder’s Layout Book and the Qualified Vehicle Modifiers (QVM) Guidelines as well as pertinent supplements. For additional information, please contact the Truck Body Builders Advisory Service 1–877–840–4338.
Use of your Ford light truck as an ambulance, without the Ford Ambulance Preparation Package voids the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty and may void the Emissions Warranties. In addition, ambulance usage without the preparation package could cause high underbody temperatures, overpressurized fuel and a risk of spraying fuel which could lead to fires.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Ford Ambulance Preparation Package, it will be indicated on the Certification label. The label is located on the driver’s side door pillar or on the rear edge of the driver’s door. You can determine whether the ambulance manufacturer followed Ford’s recommendations by directly contacting that manufacturer. Ford Ambulance Preparation Package is only available on certain 7.3L Diesel engine equipped vehicles.

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES
Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions.
Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the bulb works. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, have the respective system inspected immediately.
Service engine soon: The Service engine soon indicator light illuminates when the ignition is first turned to the ON position to check
the bulb. Solid illumination after the engine is started indicates the On Board Diagnostics System (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Refer to
On board diagnostics (OBD-II) in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter. If the light is blinking, engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter. Drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced immediately.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.
10
2003 Econoline (eco)
Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt)
USA English (fus)
Instrument Cluster
Brake system warning light: To confirm the brake system warning
light is functional, it will momentarily illuminate when the
ignition is turned to the ON position when the engine is not running, or in a position between ON and START, or by applying the parking brake when the ignition is turned to the ON position. If the brake system warning light does not illuminate at this time, seek service immediately from your dealership. Illumination after releasing the parking brake indicates low brake fluid level and the brake system should be inspected immediately by your servicing dealership.
Driving a vehicle with the brake system warning light on is dangerous. A significant decrease in braking performance may
occur. It will take you longer to stop the vehicle. Have the vehicle checked by your dealer immediately.
Brake reserve system warning |
BRAKE |
(if equipped): Illuminates to |
|
indicate normal Hydromax booster |
|
reserve system activation when the |
|
engine is OFF and the service brake |
|
pedal is applied. |
|
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.
Anti-lock brake system: If the
ABS light stays illuminated or ABS continues to flash, a malfunction has
been detected, have the system serviced immediately. Normal
braking is still functional unless the brake warning light also is illuminated.

USA English (fus)
Instrument Cluster
Air bag readiness: If this light fails to illuminate when ignition is turned to ON, continues to flash or remains
on, have the system serviced
immediately. A chime will also sound when a malfunction in the supplemental restraint system has been detected.
Safety belt: Reminds you to fasten your safety belt. A chime will also sound to remind you to fasten your safety belt.
Charging system: Illuminates when the battery is not charging properly.
Low fuel: Illuminates when the fuel |
LOW |
level in the fuel tank is at, or near |
|
empty (refer to Fuel gauge in this |
FUEL |
chapter). |
|
Oil pressure/Engine coolant: |
|
Illuminates when any of the |
|
following conditions has occurred: |
|
• The engine coolant temperature |
|
is high. |
|
• The engine oil pressure is low. |
|
Transmission control indicator
light (TCIL): Illuminates when the
overdrive function of the OVERDRIVE 
transmission has been turned off,
refer to the Driving chapter. If the
light flashes steadily, have the system serviced immediately.
Turn signal: Illuminates when the left or right turn signal or the hazard lights are turned on. If the
indicators stay on or flash faster, check for a burned out bulb.

High beams: Illuminates when the high beam headlamps are turned on.
Key-in-ignition warning chime: Sounds when the key is left in the ignition in the OFF/LOCK or 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.
GAUGES
Speedometer: Indicates the current vehicle speed.
Engine coolant temperature gauge: Indicates engine coolant temperature. At normal operating temperature, the needle will be in the normal range (between “H” and
“C”). If it enters the red section, the engine is overheating. Stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, switch off the engine and let the engine cool.

Engine oil pressure gauge:
Indicates engine oil pressure. The needle should stay in the normal
operating range (between “L” and “H”). If the needle falls below the
normal range, stop the vehicle, turn off the engine and check the engine
oil level. Add oil if needed. If the oil
level is correct, have your vehicle checked at your dealership or by a qualified technician.
