Expert Reply:
The issue is almost certainly with the hitch cover that you are using after you installed with the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector # C56431. A number of hitch covers have been known to wreak havoc with Ford trucks and cause faults in the dash when used so I recommend removing the hitch cover and the issue will abate.
