I have a 2006 4.0L automatic base mustang. It’s stock. It popped this “DTE ODO data error” on my dash. My odometer is no longer reading, but my RPM’s read fine. My “O/D off” is flashing, and my car shifts really hard.
My initial thought was maybe a fuse issue. But I’m scared it might be a bigger issue, please let me know what it could be ! Thanks!

Welcome aboard!

You have already done the cardinal forum sin and that is: Come in here with an issue but no list of ECU codes


So... PULL CODES!


- and list them here.

Turbine speed sensor more than likely ,it's located on top of the transmission and is a pain to get to! If you drop the tranny mount and let the transmission sag it's fairly easy

2007 Mustang GT convertible with about 135K miles. Garage kept. Doesn't see rain.

Hello. I have the same issue, and I have been researching and checking, but still have the error.

I was driving on the highway and the car just stalled. I pulled off to the side and it restarted once. About 2 minutes later, it died again while driving and that was the end.

I am getting the dreaded error "fuel level low dte odo data error check charging system", and I seem to have power to everything else. Stereo works, drop top works, power windows, etc., but when I try to start, it does nothing, doesn't click, doesn't crank, nothing. When I turn the key, the odometer comes up with the mileage and then turns to ---------. Then, the above errors show in the display

At this point, I have had the battery checked, and it is fine, i have changed the alternator and cable set going to the battery, checked continuity on the three wire plug that goes from the alternator to the PCM, all good. I have also checked the fuses and relays and they all seem fine. I have also tried to connect a OBD II scanner, and it wont connect.

The weird thing is, I can charge the battery, and it'll start and run for about 15 seconds, and then die and repeat.

Are there ideas? Anyone else have a similar issue?
