Some 2016 F-Super Duty vehicles may exhibit multiple SYNC symptoms such as Bluetooth and/or voice recognition being inoperative and a key off current draw that could be related to a water leak from the windshield A-pillar area on the passenger side. This condition is evidenced by signs of water, moisture, or corrosion at the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) connector. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 415-00 for APIM access. If a windshield water leak is identified, follow updated WSM, Section 501-11 for repairs and reseal the windshield. Use causal part 2503100 and applicable labor operations in Section 12 of the SLTS manual. If the water leak source is not the windshield refer to WSM, Section 501-00 Body System, General Information, Dust and Water leaks diagnosis.

Some 2016 F-Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 6.7L and dual generators built on 26-Oct-2015 and through 9-Dec-2015 may exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with no drivability symptoms and diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P02CC, P02CE, P02D0, P02D2, P02D4, P02D6, P02D8 and/or P02DA. This may be caused by a thickness variation in the accessory drive belt due to a cord shift during manufacturing that resulted in excessive tensioner movement at hot idle with no accessory drive belt loads present. To repair, replace the accessory drive belt per workshop manual (WSM) section 303-05 then reset minimum fuel mass adaptation and crankshaft position sensor learned values. Use applicable labor operations in section 6 and 10 of the SLTS manual and causal part 8620.
