During refueling, it is possible for water-contaminated diesel fuel to be
pumped into your tank. Your vehicle’s fuel system is equipped with a fuel
filter/water separator to remove water from the fuel. The WATER IN
FUEL RTT will illuminate when the ignition is turned to START (as part
of the light function check) and when the FCM/HFCM has a significant
quantity of water in it.
If the light illuminates when the engine is running, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible, shut off the engine, then drain the FCM/HFCM.
Refer to Draining the FCM/HFCM and changing the engine and
vehicle fuel filters in the Maintenance and Specifications chapter of
this supplement for the drain procedure. Allowing water to stay in the
system could result in extensive damage to, or failure of, the fuel
injection system.
Do not drain the water separator while the engine is running.
Fuel may ignite if the separator is drained while the engine is
running or the vehicle is moving.
Engine oil pressure (F-Super
Duty only):
Illuminates when the oil pressure
falls below the normal range. Refer
to Engine oil in the Maintenance
and Specifications chapter for more information.
Engine air filter (F-Super Duty only):
The engine air filter warning
message comes on in the message
center when the air filter restriction
gauge reaches the CHANGE FILTER
mark or if the air filter and/or
housing becomes packed with snow.
If airflow is restricted because of snow ingestion, the indicator will
remain on until snow is cleared from the housing, but the vehicle will
still be functional.
The air filter condition should be verified by inspecting the underhood
restriction gauge; the message is only a secondary indicator. Always use
the underhood restriction gauge to determine when the air filter element
needs to be changed.
