If its anything like the UK you will have to take the vehicle, all original title paperwork, proof of ownership etc, to a main dealer who will be able to access the factory database for the original codes. The alternative is that they may be able to scan it somehow and reset a default code which would then allow the reset of the vehicle. Be prepared for a major charge though because that sort of job here could be $500 plus. It may be there is a short cut the dealer can do. Are there any online lock specialists you could talk to or Ford truck forums?

Trans control switch (O/D cancel) out of self test range

should be under the glovebox or behind the glovebox door.

Looks like a misfire code. New spark plugs and wires usually clear that up.

Most of your answers will be in the fuse box. Look on the lid to see which fuse does what. If the new fuses blow immediately, do not put a bigger one in, look for the cause. Has the wiring been played with recently, ie Has a towbar been fitted, have any additions been added to the lighting circuits, extra spots etc.

there is four small holes at each corner of the radio, they sell a tool that you slid into them holes and it releases the locks that hold the radio into the dash. I have also made that tool out of a coat hanger, google ford radio removal tool to see a picture of one.

check you fuses

You need an install kit from car toys or best buy I think still has them. Get the wiring harness as well.

There is a special tool to remove it. It has four rods that go into the four holes on the face and releases the clips. If you're handy and not an animal, you can fabricate a tool that will work out of welding rods or even a stiff wire hanger but, remember to install the rods straight and they don't have to go too deep. If you have a feel for tools in your hands you will feel the rods engaging the clips. Hold the tool perpendicular to the radio and leave it in when you try to pull out the radio. You must engage all 4 clips or you could damage the dash. Just be careful!

You should check and / or replace the 15 amp mini-fuse. It is in location #6 on the fuse panel under the instrument panel. 15 amp mini fuses are blue in color. Usually, but not always, you can tell if a mini fuse is burnt out by removing it and looking through the clear plastic to see if the fusible link is intact or open (burnt). If it is labled, it may read "Parklamps, BSM, Instrument panel illumination" Below is an image map of the fuse panel for a 2006 F-150.
