If your 2013 Ford F-150's speedometer is not showing any speeds, the likely issue is with the vehicle speed sensor, which is located on the transmission output shaft. It calculates rotations to provide speed data to the ECU for the speedometer. While there's a small chance the problem could be with the ECU itself, this is not common. Typically, if there's an ECU malfunction, multiple car components will be affected. If your speedometer is not functioning and the check engine light is on, check the code to verify the sensor problem. Replacing the sensor is a straightforward task that should cost you less than $100.

It might be a common problem with older F150 trucks, where a faulty Mold Board Lead Frame can cause the speedometer to stop working until you turn off and restart the vehicle. This issue can also lead to erratic behavior in the transmission. Ford will cover the repair for vehicles with less than 150,000 miles.
