The F-53 chassis uses a plastic coated wire attached to the indicator. I removed the foam, located how I had disconnected the wire. Looked around and determined where it was attached replaced it to a little hook and it worked. I think it took less than 5 minutes.
Based on your statement you see no indicator. That's different from having the indicator showing between shift points or on the incorrect shift point. Maybe it's just detached or maybe it's broken. Take off some of the steering column plastic in that area and you might find a simple fix.

Don't know what year it changed, but Ford ( my 2017, 6 speed ) is now using a LED gear position indicator. No moving pointer.
The gear position your in, lights up when you have the key on.
Seems like another change to fly by wire.
