    Yes it looks exactly like that. There is a black plastic box/container, behind that or to the side of it?

    Not sure what you are talking about there. Can you take and upload a picture of what you are trying to identify?

    For some reason I can’t upload a photo. I went to far into removal. I see what you’re talking about. My diagram has no F-8’s on it. Goes from 7’s to 9’s.

    just lost all stability of truck again. Part of road was new pavement and raised approximately 5-6 inches. I went up it at approximately 40 mph and lost all of it again. This time it even took AC with it. (Going left lane to right lane)

    International dealership in San Antonio said there are no codes on dash so there is no reason to go further. Umm ok?! Here’s the crazy thing...drove the truck now after tow and it seems ok (?). How can a tow make sensors go back? The service guy said that sensors were only doing a test and that’s why it’s okay to drive. Ugh. I’m outta here.

    Do you mean you had a front end alignment and they set the toe? This can help because when the toe is off, so is the actual steer-ahead which can cause darting and other handling problems along with the steering angle sensor not being aligned to the true straight ahead.
