I have just replaced the computer on my Ford F250 Diesel pickup for the 3rd time - the 4th computer counting the original. The truck has 129,000 miles. I’ve been told that the problem is moisture - actually water - getting into the computer which is located on the driver’s side fender just above and behind the wheel well. Has anyone had and resolved this problem?
