I recall a TDS member had just that happen to him, so if I was affected, then I'd be taking it in.
The fix for the gassers was a 5 amp inline fuse if the switch wasn't leaking, and the fused harness
and a new switch if it was leaking , IIRC.
I guess Ford got nervous about fires in the Diesels as well. At least they're being proactive on it.
