## Other bulletins for the same vehicles and component

- [TSB 20\-2307](/bulletins/10181917.md), 2020-11-05, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; WHEELS; EQUIPMENT. Some 2003\-2020 Expedition/Navigator and 2006\-2020 F\-150 vehicles equipped with TOD transfer cases may exhibit grinding/clicking/ratcheting noise from the front wheel area. This may be due to partial engagement of the integrated wheel ends \(IWE\). To correct this condition, follow the Service Procedure steps to remove and cap the vacuum supply line.
- [SSM 48157](/bulletins/10165713.md), 2019-10-04, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Some 2002\-2008 F\-Super Duty, F\-150 and Mark LT vehicles may exhibit concern during or after programing the VSM. The programming may fail or vehicle symptoms such as inoperative door locks, dome lamps, door ajar indicators or auto lamps may occur after successful programing. To ensure the VSM is configured correctly, use the Integrated Diagnostic System \(IDS\) scan tool and select the blue ball and socket icon in the upper left corner. Select the utility knife in the bottom left corner. Select Update/Special Function and enter 53061 in the blue box then press the tick mark. The screen will go back to the system utilities page. Navigate to the toolbox tab and run the Programmable Module Installation \(PMI\) on the VSM. The procedure will prompt you to manually enter the as\-built into the VSM. Obtain the as\-built data from PTS \> OASIS \> As\-Built.
- [TSB 16\-0118](/bulletins/10109036.md), 2017-08-01, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY. Some 2005\-2012 Escape Hybrid and 2006\-2011 Mariner Hybrid vehicles may set DTCs P0A81 \(battery pack cooling fan 1 control circuit\) and/or P0A96 \(battery pack cooling fan 2 control circuit\) in the traction battery control module \(TBCM\). These codes by themselves normally do not result in any symptoms that are noticeable to the customer. DTCs P0A81/P0A96 are typically found when diagnosing other drivability concerns. Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
