Hello Welcome to JA!
The F between gears means there is a code in the system
Here is how to retrive the codes
Fault Codes Retrieval Retrieving Fault Codes 1. Place the shift lever in neutral. 2. Set the parking brake. 3. Turn the ignition key ON but do not start the engine. If the engine is already running, you may still retrieve codes, however, do not engage the starter if engine stalls. 4.

To Retrieve Inactive Codes:
Start with the key in the
ON position. Turn the key OFF and ON four times
within five seconds ending with the key in the ON
position. After five seconds, a number(s) will appear
on the gear display which will identify the failure
mode(s). 25 will dictate no fault codes.
5. Note the codes
Start with the key in the ON position. Turn the key
OFF and ON two times within five seconds ending with the key in the ON

Thanks
RD
how do i change the codes?
checked system override buttom earlier had ecu-130 on display. engine check was 6-1 and engine protect was 25. also, on the meritor display earlier had 43 flashed.
great Thanks
on the transmission
the code is showing the rail select motor
this can be caused by a poor connection or a bad push pill motor on the transmission selector, i would clear it and the see what you have then
25 means end of test

On the meritor code
That is right rear wheel sensor
Open circuit is detected
Check Sensor wiring, replace Sensor if necessary.
Most of the time its a dirty plug in conection
ECU 130
130 Electronic Transmission
this is the ecu has detected a problem in with the tcm trans control mogul
i would clear the transmission
disconnect the battery
while the battery are disconnected
check the wheel sensor
wabco merritor parts work best on the sensor.
when your done at the sensor
re connect the battery
road test see what comes back
chances are the transmission will need the shift solenoid.
but it would not hurt to unplug and plug in the harness at the transmission too.
Let me know if i can help more!
