Does the anti theft light blink fast?
If so it's the PATS not recognizing the keys

Tried turning the key off and on, dropped from 60mph to 30mph. Clicking sound stopped but gauges won't reset completely. Going to try to disconnect battery for a couple hours first and change fuse.

Starter system fail on dashboard display

Ford F-150 2012 FX4 4dr SuperCrew 4WD/5.0L 8cyl 6A 105000 miles
Driving the interstate on Tuesday and vehicle lost all power and shut down. Had towed to dealership (they were able to start it and drive into service bay). Dealership service department connected to computer and no errors were indicated. When we picked up vehicle, were able to drive the vehicle approximately 60 miles to home and then drove an additional 60 miles on Thursday.
Today, 4 days after vehicle was towed to dealership, we were unable to start the vehicle. The starter system fail is displayed on dashboard. Lights, radio, power windows, locks, etc all still work. Battery checks out (even attempted to jump, same response). All indications would point to a bad starter; however, would a bad starter completely shut down the vehicle? Anyone else experience this situation.

Noise in engine bay, oil pressure light on dash

Ford F-150 2012 Platinum 4 door 4x4 short bed 3.5 ecoboost turbo  106000 miles
Just about everytime you turn the truck off this loud noise like pressure trying to escape, its not the IWC (tested an passed) and I did replace the oil pressure switch but light remains on, does seem like the oil has a faint fuel smell. It doesn't have a Ford oil filter (ive read that could cause issues with this motor) but I did get a oil change because process of elimination with some of the diag ive done. I haven't checked the pcv value or test the fuel thing on the driver value cover yet or ac and alt. But does seem like the noise is up top

Dash lights go out when I turn on headlights, blinkers too.

Ford F-150 2005 4.6l 160000 miles
If I turn my headlights on the dash lights go out and the blinkers won't blink. Sometimes it won't start, either. Wiggled the steering wheel one time and it started right up. Mostly didn't start in park then would start in neutral. Now, neutral starts are not always working.

Dash lights come on when truck is parked and off

Ford F-150 2012 f 150 v6 125000 miles
Stereo kept cutting off, then noticed when truck was parked and off the dash lights would come on. Played with them got them go off, however went out 1hr later and they were on again. Have had the battery drained 2x now. Mechanic tested said it was the stereo, replaced it with a new one. Same problem continued, replaced ignition switch, still happening!
What the heck is going on. Haven't been able to drive unless I disconnect the negative battery cable when parked or if I don't the battery will be dead when I get back to it.

Ford F-150 1999  180000 miles
My 99’ f150 shut off while driving and when I try to start it I blow a 30a fuse under the dash as soon as I turn the key. Would a bad coil cause this?
