2005 ford freestyle, for about 5 months now, while driving or in park, there is a clicking sound and then all of the dash instruments and lights will cut out. sometimes they will flicker or just remain out for a few moments and then come back on, turn signal on dash will also cut out if on when this happens. can happen several times while driving whether just started or have been driving for hours. there is no loss of power and the car drives fine. had engine scanned and there were no codes, additionally check all of the fuses, but found nothing.

Open the hood and look to your left to the rear at the top of the firewall.You will see a large wire harness going into a computer module.remove the wire harness from the computer and look for corrosion.Clean any corrosion and reinstall harness and waterproof the connection as Ford did not waterproof this connector very well and it can cause all sorts of trouble.

Where is the interlock switch to get my 2005 ford freestyle out of park it's stuck

hey! Jasmine first check that the fuse for the brake lights is not blown there's a safety thing that will not let you shift out of park if the fuse is blown /// next if O.K. you must check the brake light switch on the frame where the pedal is under the dash if lights are working then the interlock switch is on the steering column here's the connector that you'll look for
interlock-switch-get-2005-ford-freestyle-h3u3bvaxgt5rbqkhjnnyjnme-5-0.jpg
but is the shift lever very loose if it is try to push it forward and all the way to the left and it should start was somebody yanking on the shifter trying to get it out of park without there foot on the brake they could have broken the shift tube so the transmission is not all the way in park and the neutral safety switch is stopping you from starting because now it's not in the right position

Dash gauges not working

Hi Eileen,

Yes you have to inspect fuse board and i think the main fuse is the problem.

My 2005 ford freestyles battery was not dead but was just making a clicking sound then I went to the store came back when I turned off the car the lights stayed on until I pulled the fuse.ok more...

Had the same problem last year. It was the first time in my life that I ever saw a dashboard go haywire, like you describe. Turns out it was just a dead battery. Replaced it; no problems since.

  • WATER LEAK IN RIGHT FRONT OF PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
Publication Date: January 17, 2006
FORD: 2005/06 Freestyle
ISSUE: Some 2005 Freestyle vehicles may exhibit a water leak at the right front passenger compartment. This may be due to grommet for rear washer fluid line at dash not being fully seated.
ACTION: Inspect windshield washer grommet from inside vehicle under dash and properly seat if out of position. Pull carpet back and reach under bulkhead pad to install. Removal of instrument panel is not required. (Figure 1)

2005 freestyle - charging system light came on and dash lights went crazy. Car would not start-headlights and dash lights would not go out.

SOUND LIKE ALTERNATOR PROBLEMS CHECK BATTERY CABLES. MAKE SURE THEY ARE CLEAN AND TIGHT.CHECK DRIVE BELT MAKE SURE ITS NOT LOOSE OR DAMAGED.IF ALL LOOKS GOOD CHECK ALTERNATOR VOLTAGE OUT PUT AT BATTERY WITH CAR RUNNING.BATTERY VOLTAGE SHOULD BE 13.5 - 14.5 VOLTS. IF NOT ALTERNATOR IS FAULTY.
