Noises toward the back of your Ford F-150 Lightning, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often will I need Ford F-150 Lightning differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

What causes a F-150 Lightning’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

Is it possible to reset the F-150 Lightning malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your F-150 Lightning's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue.

Does my F-150 Lightning transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your F-150 Lightning includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your F-150 Lightning forward.
