I have a 1999 f150 extended cab 4x4 with the 5.4 triton V8.While driving down the road the truck will just shut right off with no warning what so ever.When this happens all guages flatline and the odometer turns to all dashes.The truck will turn over but will not fire and nothing in the insturment cluster will move.After 10 to 15 min. the truck will fire right back up and run beautiful again.The truck has been to 3 dealers with no codes showing.Sometimes the theft light will flash fast then stop and blink 2 times slowly.someone said it is an 11 code?.Any help will be very helpful.Thank You

I would probably start with the EEC relay or the GEM module. Both control power to the the vehicle and could be responsible for the shutdown. Im pretty sure the GEM (generic engine module) also controls the anti-theft
