Was driving my '17 Raptor in town and when I pulled into a store the low oil pressure warning came on. Figured nothing after reading some posts saying theirs went away after a service which mine was due for. Started drive home and battery voltage low came on. Stopped at the ford dealer on the way home and of course they say they cant get it in for a couple weeks. Started driving again and truck overheated and AC quit working and ended up needing to be drug back to the house. Found a bolt for the thermostat housing had backed out and shredded the serpentine belt. Replaced the belt and changed the oil but low oil pressure is still present and AC still isnt working. It is booked to go to the shop but not until the 28th. Didnt see any torn wires or connectors when I installed the new belt but seems all this started once the belt failed. Truck has 101,000 miles. Anyone had this issue before?

Probably set a permanent code, if you have Forscan you can check or you could try disconnecting the battery for 10-30 minutes and see if it resets after that.

Check the connector on the lower left of the front cover; that is the oil pump solenoid. When the belt came apart it may have damaged the wires and/or connector.

Checked the connector and wiring and don’t see anything broke. Pulled the connector off and checked the pins and they look fine.

Have you followed the sub-harness up to where it meets the main harness?

No I haven’t. It was getting too dark out and I was tired of rolling in gravel. They’re calling for better weather Friday so I’ll check it out more after work. Here are some pictures of what I found tonight though.
