Probably the alternator but I'd check it to be sure first. Many auto parts stores will check you whole charging system for free so call around.

thanks.

Check your fuel pump and the starter. It's either of the two that has fault.

2006 f-250 everything in dash go out then later come back on again later,speedo,tach,gauges,all drop to 0,is it a short,delayed fuse,or instrument cluster?

CHeck the earth returns on the instrument cluster. The behavior points to a loose electrical connection rather than a short or fuse.

this is probably a fairly simple earth fault. they look far worse and affect far more than you would think.
as it affects front lights and rear lights, the most likely cause is a bad earth from the battey to the body. check the earth lead is still bolted tightly to the body and that the area it is connected to is clean and solid metal.
if this does not work, track the earth wires from the lights affected to where they bodt onto the body and check these are tight and to clean solid metal as well.

this should sort out the biggest problem, but you may have to check the bulbs as well just to make sure they are all ok.

Mine just did same (2001). Have them check the power steering pump--shaft broke in mine. This affects the brakes as well since both power brakes and power steering run off same system in Astros. Broken shaft messed up the booster system.
