Hello there, many faults will cause the wrench light to be seen in your 2010 Ford F-150. When the throttle body was cleaned if too much cleaner gets on the throttle body sensor or into the throttle motor, then this could cause a malfunction. Another possibility is that the throttle body may have been damaged or the linkage misaligned when it was cleaned. If you would like an expert to scope this out in person, a qualified technician, such as one from YourMechanic, will be able to diagnose the warning light in person so that it gets repaired properly.

Hi there. All vehicles are set up to take the air from outside and have the air conditioning on to make the defroster work. There is nothing you can do to change the defrost settings.
My car overheated and now won't start.
