Lightning Bolt?

I notice you guy's are talking about the lightning bolt and I've seen it before I start the engine.

When I bought my 07.5 (just last week or so) the dealer had lost the owners manual so I don't have a copy yet.

What is it and what does it mean? What other differences am I missing compared to my 5.9?

Cheers,
Ron

The "lighting bolt" is the warning for the ETC, electronic throttle control. It did cause me some problems early on but was replaced and no problems since.
