I also have an XLT with the smaller screen, see post 361 of this same thread where I added a few notes and pics from my install. It may have been cleaner to "pull some dash trim and unscrew the bottom controls to pull the center trim" but I ended up using a big screwdriver to pry things apart...
Looks like the same thing as both are related to misaligned electrodes:
Here's one link I found that mentions 25V131

It started when I had 43k miles, and I swapped it out at 49k miles. I have Ford ESP for 4yr/150k miles but chose a $200 deductible and the cost of the custom base and used rotary shifter was $160. I didn't want to have another one of the same shifters installed as I've seen posts by others...
Welcome to the club!
Very likely yours is also the shifter - I swapped mine out for a rotary dial 3 weeks and 3k miles ago and bada-bing no more errors!
I used a rotary shifter from a 2021 Escape Hybrid, made a post here around the beginning of page 25 -- was getting errors every day with the old shifter and while I don't have a scanner to check for DTCs, the warning light went away and hasn't returned in the 2k miles since.
I swapped out my shifter today, many thanks to @ditkafan1985 for creating the custom base and providing encouragement that even a rookie like me could carry out the change. Here are some details that others may find interesting, as when I was considering doing the swap myself I wanted all of...
As for the codes that get sent/stored on the Ford side, apparently mine has one for the shifter and also has one for the air dam... so I'm about to replace the shifter with the rotary dial in a few days, and we'll see if that makes and issue go away and if not I hope it at least narrows it down...
Several owners have had issues with the shifter, below is the thread about the conversion to rotary knob....

Some of us collect the notices like trading cards, but as long as the power stays at 100% (which mine always has) it's likely either the air dam sensor(s) or the shifter about to cause larger problems. During the middle of one of the below notices I started getting a clicking from the shifter...
I was just at Discount Tire again last week when they did another free tire rotation and balance, and this is on the OEM tires rather than a replacement set that's associated with a purchase at DT with the tire certificate purchase. So DT has never tried to nickel & dime me and have always been...
I first started using EA stations back in 2017 (2 EVs ago) and while the reliability is now much better, it's still no guarantee that when you plug in that the unit will pair and start charging, which is sad and so you're right on point!
Well the Fitcamx dashcam does come in handy and was almost used to record things right up until the collision, thankfully there was enough time and room to evade the idiot. I overdubbed with some stock youtube audio as there definitely a little NSFW from my wife and me.
I have replayed it at least 30 times and can't figure it out, so strange that it seems to appear from the middle of the road rather than coming out of one of the trees...
It was 6:40am on a rural road and about 25F so it's not like someone was standing near the side of the road and threw...
Well here's another good sample from my Fitcamx, from yesterday morning's commute (trimmed down to 6 seconds for the youtube clip) - I don't know what this object was that hit my front bumper, seems to have come out of nowhere... any ideas?
I'm not aware of a button like that, and just searched the manual for ('blank','black','dim','dimming','dark') and didn't get any relevant hits... maybe it's an "undocumented feature" who knows.
Anyway, that same thing happened to me one day when the truck had about 25k miles, out of the blue I...
I received my new Ford adapter but already have an A2Z adapter that works fine for me.
Still new in box, though it looks like the FEDEX driver kicked it around a bit.
$100 plus shipping.
