FORD INTERMITTENT CRANK BUT NO START / DASHES ON ODOMETER / THEFT LIGHT FLASHING!

In today's video we take a look at a 1999 Ford F-150 Pickup truck with a V6 4.2l engine. The customer complaint is that the truck will randomly not start. The engine cranks and turns over but it will not fire up and run. Upon initial inspection, I found that during the time that the vehicle wouldn't start, the odometer on the instrument cluster did not read any numbers. Only dashes. Also, the anti-theft or security light would blink rapidly. This was something I was familiar with. Usually this means that we have a communication problem with the engine computer or PCM. I suspect a bad relay, a faulty diode or maybe even a bad ground. The only problem is, I can not duplicate or recreate the concern. This makes diagnosing the fault very difficult.

Thanks for the great information. A couple simple steps to pass on to your viewers before they dig into this. I just dealt with this issue and it finally gave up the ghost the other day. After 2 1/2 hours of testing and further researching I stumbled on the problem which I wish had been my first steps.#1: In the main fuse box, push down on all the relays in the top bank. There 2 that will cause this problem. (If laid out like my 2014) The first on the top left (PCM relay) and the 7th (Start/Run relay). My start/run was sitting up barely 1/32" not noticeable and that solved my problem. #2: Before going to far into testing, the relays are the easiest to check. Find and remove the rear window defrost relay. (#4 on the 2014). Use that to swap out #1 and then #7. If a bad relay, you will know immediately and since you don't need the defrost to operate, it will get you going. By the part #, all those relays are exactly the same. I also found they were only $18 on Amazon. I hope this helps someone. Thanks again for the education!

Intermittent problems are the most difficult to verify. As a Electronic Technician a very valuable tool for intermittent Troubleshooting is Freeze Spray. You spray the individual components and see if there's a change. That diode could easily have a cracked solder joint that shows its ugly head when cold. Once it warms up, it makes contact.

@ronc4146 22 күн бұрын

1999-2014 (gen 10-12) F150's (and other related Ford trucks and RV's) have a known issue with the Fuel Pump Driver Module (mounted on a rail or shaft under the bed) that causes very similar issues with crank/no-starts, PATS issues, PCM commo issues, stalling, etc that would lead one to initially suspect a bad fuel pump. FordTech Makuloco has a couple of videos on this, as well as a dozen others. My friends 2014 E-450 (6.8L V10) 30' RV conversion just quit on him yesterday (7/22/2024), leaving him and his family stranded in the middle of Ohio on their summer cross-country road trip. Myself and several other friends had him go through steps like listening for the fuel pump running, checking the fuel pump fuse and relay (by switching both out), and also considered ignition and ignition switch issues. Turns out it was that module, which causes commo issues with the PCM as well as possibly messing with the PATS system (where those codes need to be cleared too). FYI. There's also the known (but separate) fuel pump fuse #27 problem, which Ford sells a retrofit / relocation kit for: Motorcraft WT56872 Terminal Kit.

When my 2002 F150 had an intermittent crank/no start, it was the PCM relay. Also, the odometer fading out intermittently is typical for these and the fix is usually resoldering connection on the back of the instrument cluster.

Great diagnosis strategy, thanks for sharing! I've encountered a somewhat similar problem with a Ford Everest/Ranger having intermittent crank no start issues. My initial diagnosis was an immobilizer issue as the crank no start only happens when the theft light does not show up when key in acc. and actually drops comms to the pcm, but starts just fine when it does and restores comms to the pcm. Since the customer was in a rush, told him to try another key. Problem still persisted and customer brought it over to the dealership and they changed a couple of parts and called out the PCM. Customer brought it back to me and left it for the day and after checking powers and grounds to both the immobilizer control module and PCM where all checked right, was able to zero out the issue to the immobilizer coil antenna which was failing leading to the intermittent crank no start. I use a similar Launch tool, but a bit older model, and yes you need to update it regularly to get it to function optimally. Great work, Cheers!

Absolutely AWESOME video. I'm having a similar issue with my 99 Expedition EB w/ 5.4L, and about 205,000 miles. Intermittently, the truck will die when I come to a complete stop. The idle will just die, and when I go to restart it, it will just crank & crank...however, the theft light is flashing rapidly, and the odometer is all dashes. After a few hrs, the truck will restart and run fine. It might be fine for several days, then act up again...or it might die again at the next stop light. There's no rhyme or reason as to when and why. I've been searching high & low for solutions. Everyone has been telling me a PATS issue, and this is the first video that says it might be something different. I've been thinking something was probably getting hot and shutting down, but I had no idea where to start...until now. Going to replace the diode and relay, and see what happens.

Which I have yet to find a straight answer on what it is. When the theft light does this it shuts the power off to the fuel pump which you can crank all day long but the motor isn't getting any gas. There is so many issues with the theft system on the first but I own two ford's and couldn't ask for a better truck as much as the one that's having issues, it's been through a lot and when I do get it fixed it runs great

Watching a few different vids and stumbled on yours. I have a similar issue however, I own a 2000 F150 XLT 4x2 5.4L 2V. It'll crank and start. But once in awhile it will not crank at all and one other problem I have which I will mention after. So like I was saying it will not crank and the anti theft will flash or come on when I'm trying to crank it on the dashboard. I don't have a remote which is my other problem. I purchased a remote and I've owned a few ford vehicles so I have some prior experience with fords. Which is frustrating because I have searched for answers and can't find one. I don't want to pay for diagnostic at the Ford service center. When I can I do it myself and learn something while doing so. Ok so I purchased a remote so I can unlock and lock the vehicle easily. Manual programming is the turn the key to run and the 7th or 8th time the locks should actuate. Well I've tried every possible way door open, closed. Door open and close etc. Now the locks will unlock and lock manually when I press the unlock and lock on door panel. I checked and it says that a GEM Module controls this feature. Is this true and I also checked the wiring diagram it says the module is under dash well I checked and I cant find it... I'm the 3rd owner and I don't want to pass the buck... PLEASE ANY SUGGESTIONS WILL BE APPRECIATED. A RESOLUTION WOULD BE AWESOME... I hope to hear from you soon, THANKS!

Great video as usual. My old Autel didn't read the VIN on that generation Ford truck. But my newer Autel does. You should have gone manual by selecting the make, model and year manually and see if it communicates and what other modules communicate,.. the airbag, the ABS, etc. If I get a no comm on the PCM, I would have tried to communicate with the Immobilizer ( the Instrument cluster) , since the THEFT light blinks. There shoudl be a code stored. I did that once and it said something like " SCP message missing", meaning that the PCM didn't sent the SCP messages, meaning that it was off. When you did the global mode on the Launch you did get a match when it scanned for VPW. Older fords are VPW. Newer ones are CAN. You should have see if VPW connected to the PCM. I LOVE these old trucks. Easy to repair and they frequently go well over 250K miles. I have nothing bad to say about these old trucks. I could say a lot of bad things of the newer trucks. The newer F-150's are junk. They don't make them like they used to. I also would have hooked a small wire to the #18 fuse and hook it up to a temporary test bulb inside the truck. And have the owner see if it didn't light up when it acted up. Thanks for the great videos.

I have a question maybe more. I have a 98 ford explorer 4.0 sohc. I have this intermittent crank no start issue as well. I got a crankshaft position sensor to put on but have not put it on yet thinking it is that. Hard to tell if any parts I put on helps for this issue comes and goes at random. I will try changing out the temperature sensor as well. I have noticed the temperature gauge has been running a lil hotter for awhile but does not reach hot. So perhaps the temperature sensor may fix this on mine. I just have to figure out which one it is. I think mine has 2 or 3 different kinds of sensors all close together close to the thermostat housing. But my question is where is the ground wire suppose to be located? I have not been able to get an answer from anyone. I found a ground cable that was disintegrated just hanging in engine bay closest to the alternator but could not tell where it was connected on either end. Im wondering if this has caused some issues that I have not recognized yet.

Love this tutorial. Any info on 2010 Ford Transit Connect? I am about to check the diode, etc. Thanks!

Classic signs of a failing fuel pump intermittent crank but no start especially when it gets colder outside first thing in the morning after it warms up starts and runs just fine until the next morning or so.

I had the same problem in my 2012. Crank no start in the morning, ran fine all day. I found the ground on the battery was loose. I did not think anything of it, until the next day when the truck fired right up. I chalked it up to the KAM memory being erased. I assume that because I remember changing the battery, and I had a long crank on the first start. That was my situation.

I experience this phenomena on my 2002 f150. The last time I took it to someone, they guessed the fuel pump wasn't turning on when I turned the key and recommended I cycled the key (on-off-on-off) a few times. I still have the problem and when I cycle the key it eventually starts. I usually have to try to start 3-4 times, but it gets there.

Me too.Man I'm glad i found this video.It was driving me nuts.I would listen for the fuel pump to cycle that's how i knew it was good to attempt a start.Just like you it took 3 or 4 cycles to get going.I'd hear the pump and it starts right up.

Intermittent electrical problems in avehicle: Often just some extra movement with some offending bad contact may fix it for quite some time. Sometimes forever, but sometimes it starts to act up in the future again. But it definitely makes hard any diagnosis. Once you start digging into it, it just starts to work normally, so you find nothing.

Nice work as usual brother!!👍 that’s weird that the one scan tool won’t work. Pretty sure they run off very similar if not the same software

It was very strange because I’ve been using that scan tool almost exclusively for the past couple of months and have not had an issue like that.

Did you check the hybrid cluster for codes? I would expect there to be a commincation code for loss of communication with the PCM.

Very informative video however the launch x431 pro communicated with the truck in global OBD 2 mode , there was a match for one of the communication protocols ..

I'm having trouble with mine as well but mine cranks right away first thing in the morning and then won't start on first crank after I've been driving it. Runs great though
