2023 F-150 STX Instrument Panel Goes Out

[Smokewagun]

So I was driving down the road and looked down at the instrument panel just in time to see it go black and all the gauges dropped to zero. After two seconds, the needles pop back up, but none of the lights lit up. Shortly there after, the lights all lit up and down the road we went. I assumed it was going through some sort of update, but I have not seen anything in FordPass letting me know that I have undergone an update. Is anybody have this issue? It did reset my selected screen to stock.

That’s funny, my truck just did this exact same thing pulling into a parking spot this last week. Only time it’s ever done this. All these Sync4 and instrument panel glitches are really annoying. Trip meter and fuel mileage constantly resetting, screen freezes, buttons have a huge delay(like a 90s computer) sync4 screen turns on whenever it feels like it, it no longer drops trail crumbs automatically (even though it’s set to auto), bluetooth is 50/50 wether I’ll be able to talk to someone.

I try not to let all this bother me and just completely ignore all of it like I don’t have an 8” screen above the center console and never rely on anything the instrument panel says. So basically just use the truck for truck things but all the fancy screens are almost useless.
Sorry, that’s all I got.
Please let us know if you figure out what it was.
