I'm glad I came back to this video and read the comments. I had my truck shut off going 75 on an interstate. After 30 minute of trying to start it, I had it towed. After watching this video, I located the sensor and was going to pull it. I had all the symptoms. But after seeing your comment about the box under the seat, I removed the carpet because it was smelling moldy, and found an ant bed under the driver's seat carpet. Since cleaning that out I have had no more problems. P.S. I power washed the floorboards and the carpet, and it smells much better.

I actually already installed LED’s on my cluster, but now I bought another cluster off an ‘03 Ranger that has really cool silver gauges & that actually has a tachometer which I had been wanting. I need to take the speedo needle off to get to the odometer mileage & then swap out one with the other for the original mileage of my truck. I hope it’s not too difficult as you said, I’m not sure if I trust myself to do it.

Nice job. You have a talent for instructional videos - well organized, detailed, and with pleasant voice. I hope you make more videos because I have the same truck. This video helped me remove and clean out my instrument panel. Two of the three top plastic holes on the top of the bezel also broke on my truck! I'm trying some JB Weld to make new supports. Well, I'll see. Also, btw, I found an easy mod for adding a toggle to switch off the annoying door chime when working on/cleaning your truck. Lmk if you don't know it yet. Thanks again for posting. It helped a lot.

I like the chime to work other times because it keeps me from locking my keys in. It's really easy to do. I will throw together a quick video for you, and then, if you like the idea, you can make a much better video for your people. You've got at least 37, I see ;-)

Whoops thought I took down this video. Turns out it wasn’t the sensor for me. It was the big plug under the driver seat. Try looking at the wires from the sensor to the plug and look at the plug from inside the cab as well, making sure no wires are sticking out or the plug is not dirty. I had metal shavings on the plug from when my roll cage was installed and it was shorting out the circuit
