Jeff great video and thanks for keeping up with the comments! I have a 2016 F150 with 98k miles. Just started happening to me yesterday same thing. Extremely violent and scary when it happens at 80mph on a TX highway, very dangerous… DTC Codes P0706 & P0707 & P1702. After doing some research when the transmission range sensor throws a fault the truck immediately shifts into 3rd gear and stays there until you park or turn the truck off. Once you turn the truck off (like your video) you can’t turn it back on…. Going to call the dealer tomorrow and see what can be done. Maybe Ms Lyons can help me too!

Thanks for the comment Nick. I never got the 1702 code, but maybe because I was having intermittent failure of the circuit. This should be a recall. My only hope is that more people submit their story to NHTSA and it becomes a recall.

My 2016 F150 just done this yesterday, it was right after I left a drive through car wash, so I figured something got wet that didn't like it. That is the only time it has done it and hasn't done it since. Now I don't feel so confident that is was just a freak incident.

Nope. Get it to the dealer before it happens to downshift on the highway.

my 2013 f150 gave me the Rench symbol so i pulled over and thinking just turn off then on to see if it reset it then the truck won't even turn over. I checked and got the PO707 and PO706 codes. not sure if it's the wiring harness or the Lead frame range sensor.

2016 F150 5.0 V8 167k miles here- throwing the same code. Originally thought it was my alternator, taking it into the ford dealer on Monday to have the entire lead frame replaced as suggested in this video. Looks like the total will be about $1,000 but how much time was it in the shop for? Thanks for the video

They had mine for about 4 days because the mechanic bent the pins on the connector and muffed up the the first lead frame. They had to order another lead frame and a pigtail to splice into the harness on the frame of the truck. I’d say best case, 2 days, worst case, a week.

The range sensor is integrated into the molded lead frame along with the output speed sensor. It’s a fabulous design whereby the metallic particles in the fluid accumulate on the sliding potentiometer and tell the computer to downshift at highway speeds. Good luck. Enter a complaint on NTSB, maybe it will eventually become a recall.

It could but if you’re going to go through the trouble, you might as well replace the lead frame. Lasco ford has the lead frame for about $200 www.lascoautoparts.com/oem-parts/ford-al3z-7g276-d-2016-2017-2018-2019-ford-transit-valve-body-connector-in-stock-as-of-1-25-22-al3z7g276d?c=bD0xJm49U2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHMmYT1mb3JkJm89Zi0xNTAmeT0yMDE2JnQ9eGx0JmU9NS0wbC12OC1mbGV4

This happened to my 2012 ford mustang. A way i found to start the vehicle again is to take the key out, lock the doors while you're inside the car. Unlock it, put the key in the ignition and turn to the on position, press unlock on the fob again and try to crank. Might take a couple of times. Or, clear engine codes. Simplest way.

Nothing major but occasionally I notice a “strange shift” maybe it’s the hill or terrain that I am on or something else. I’ve always been keenly aware of the way my vehicles sound/operate but even more so now than ever before. Lol

Sorry to hear this…you’ll need to get the molded lead frame replaced (~$960 parts and labor). This part contains the range sensor that is giving false readings to the computer. Try to limp to the dealer, call ford corporate for financial assistance. They paid 60% on mine. My truck had 46K when it happened. Good luck!
