Will not start

Hi,

I would be happy to help, but I need more information. First, does the starter engage and turn the engine? Second, is this a 5.4L V8 or the 4.6L V8?

If the starter isn't engaging, did you check the starter relay? Have you checked to see if there is power to the starter? I ask because there is a fusible link between the battery and starter relay that may have failed.

Take a look through this link and let me know if anything helps. It deals with the starter motor not working. If that isn't what is happening, let me know.

Also, I attached a pic of the wiring schematic for you to see.

Let me know.

Good morning,

Does the engine crank when you turn the key to start?

Do you have a voltmeter to test the battery voltage?

Hi,

Is the starter engaging and turning the engine, but it just won't start? Let me know. Until I hear back from you, here is a link you may find of interest. It discusses the most common causes of a crank no start condition.

Hi,

That really would matter how bad the cable or terminal is. Can you take a picture of what it looks like so I can see it? Also, explain what is happening.

Let me know.
