Default DTE FLI DATA ERR

Really hating my Stang right now!! Just crossed over 1600 miles today, and after getting off work my car said it was at "low fuel level" aka 50 miles to empty or less. Never had a problem before, so I go to happy hour, then over to a friends place , leave at about midnight. When I start my car, MyColor doesn't work, A/C doesn't blow cold air, gas gauge reads empty, sensor says parking brake is on (i never use it), turn signals don't click or light up in dash, display shows "brake fluid low, fuel level low, parking brake on, and then finally DTE FLI DATA ERR....

WTF is going on?! Does this have something to do with the fact I let my car get low on gas (got to about 35 miles til empty on display), or is this just some electrical problem? I can't find anything online. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, what corrected it?? I really don't want to have to deal with resetting my comp and re-installing factory airbox just to take my car to the dealer, and I can't believe I'm already experiencing comp problems at only 1600 miles..

I am not sure. I dont have the interior upgrade package like you, but I do remember one time my gas gage said that I was on E and my gas light came on. I knew the night before I had like at least a half a tank. I was headed to work but I figured that maybe somebody had syphend out my gas so I went and filled it up and was only able to put like $15 in it so I know that it wasnt empty. Started it back up after it was topped off and it was fine. Havent had a problem since. Let us know what the problem is when you get it looked at.

Disconnect battery for 15 min and reconnect it, this resets computer, also take it for a ride so it can relearn your habits, and put it in memory. One problem i had was that the warning buzzer for seat belts would not shut off. I used my other remote and it stopped, something did not load onto the the remote and needs to be reprogrammed. On other cars was the air conditioner would not work, or other functions, so reload was in order. If it happens again back to dealer I would take it. [sm=icon_rock.gif]

Yeah I'm gonna try the reset thing, if not then I guess I'll goto the dealer on Monday. I don't want to have to deal with taking off the CAI and retuning the car back to stock, but I definately don't want them bringing up some warranty issues with the tuner either. It's just wierd that only certain things are affected, like oil pressure and fuel level, and then it also affects my turn signals and headlights, and my parking break....just wierd.

I can't find anything on google regarding the "dte fli data err" message though.

This is probably a dumb question, but what remote are you talking about? The keyless entry remote, or something else?
