From experience I'll tell you,,,Take it to the dealer and have it scanned! It can be anything from bad wire connectors or bad wires to one or more sensors out of range. Unless you're rich with a lot of idle time on your hands, get it to a Ford dealer.

There is a vacuum leak in the engine. When there is not enough pressure in the air system the car will not idle correctly. This can cause a slow idle, erratic idle, or even a surging idle. Check the vacuum lines and intake for any leaks.
