Interesting. Thanks for sharing. My compass is off and Im having this temp sensor issue as well. 800 miles.I've read elsewhere, I think in the Tech>Sync, Nav ... forum that some are having problems with both trans temp fluctuations and frozen compass. I noticed my compass once before and have been watching this temp gauge just in case it starts misbehavin
Please keep us updated. If this is the fix I'm going back to the dealer right away and raising hell.Same issue here. ‘21 XL 4x4 5.0 10spd. I only have 281 miles on this thing and it did it on the second time I drove it. Now it does it every time. Haven’t had it to the dealer but will post here with the outcome. I have read elsewhere this is the sending unit inside the transmission.
Definitely. Not sure exactly when I’ll get to take it in. Today, it works. Go figure. I’m sure the day I take it in it’ll work and never act up while they have it. Gonna try and get in next week if possible.Please keep us updated. If this is the fix I'm going back to the dealer right away and raising hell.
This is exactly what mine does. It’s hard for me to bring myself to allowing my local Ford dealer to look at it. I don’t have a reliable dealer to deal with that’s close by so I’d rather just wait it out and see if the PCM update that’s coming will fix it.Has anyone gotten a proper fix for this yet? I had it in once and was told my transmission just runs cool…. Complete BS.
i noticed mine never works on a cold start but once the truck is warm and I shut it off and come back to turn it on it works….
Your truck sounds like mine…. I had the same camera issue.This is exactly what mine does. It’s hard for me to bring myself to allowing my local Ford dealer to look at it.

Got an email regarding a no start condition related to oil level and oil life reminder. They say an update is coming for this. Anyway, maybe that’ll take care of it and my backup camera that stopped working for a day but now works again lol.
Mine shifts firm and has lurched into 1st when coming to a stop. Kinda scary! Generally it shifts good but can get confused on when and how hard to downshift. I’m convinced newer computer controlled vehicles go through a “learning curve” and adjust themselves as they go along. Some are worse than others maybe?Your truck sounds like mine…. I had the same camera issue.
i just dropped mine in the shop to get the vibration at 75-80mph looked at again and they gave me an STX identical to mine with a 2.7 instead of 5.0 as a loaner. It shakes worse than mine but the trans temp gauge does the exact thing…
but this truck shifts way smoother than mine. Mine lurches between 2-4 gear. This one is butter smooth…
With what you said - I’m about to call the dealer and tell them to forget about the gauge and look at my transmission roughness instead and fix the vibration which I’m starting to believe is just these shotty Hankook tires
Have you heard what the update is for like which module ?After taking my big girl in for the 6th time regarding this issue and escalating to the BBB and the customer service manager for the truck division in Michigan, I finally got an answer. Seems there's an issue with the software. The digital signal being sent to the analog gauge isn't being interpreted correctly when the tranny is cold. Programmers are working on a fix and once they can confirm via in house testing, they'll be rolling the software update out.
Wether or not this was told to me to keep me from coming back for a while, well, we'll see. Just thought I'd update now that I had something new to share.
