PWR button and rear main seal: Any relation? (MORE DRAMA)
Took my truck for 90k service to my mechanic and he noticed a small oil leak in the rear main seal / oil pan area. I have a warranty on the truck and took it to the Lex dealer to get the leak fixed (they supposedly replaced the rear main seal back in March). The dealer again replaced the rear main seal under warranty, but I now notice that the PWR button no longer works. The ECT PWR dash light does not come on and there is no difference in shift points under normal throttle. I know my PWR mode was working (the light and mechanically) before I took it to the dealership because I have been driving in PWR mode to calculate the MPG difference.
Is it possible that during the process of replacing the rear main seal, the mechanic could have done something to affect the PWR function, or is this just a coincidence??? Also the 2nd STRT light does not work, but I can't remember using it before. I did a search and found that some people have had the PWR light fuse.
