no start

I’m new to the forum and reading all the experiences here has been super helpful. Short Version - What do you think of the engine sounds in these videos: Just inherited a 1993 Explorer XLT and have had a heck of a time trying to get running. I live in New York and the Explorer sat in my...

Hi there. I have a 2000 Explorer V6 OHV 4x4 with a 5speed manual tranny. The other day driving to work it died on me. just cut out in the middle of 4th at like 2.2k RPM. truck was running smooth before with no lights and no issues at all I notice that i still have oil pressure when I go to turn...

Hi there everyone, serious issue here: I've got a '01 Explorer Sport that probably about 90% of the time, won't start on the first go around. Usually, I'll get in the car, go to turn the key and... All the electronics in the car shut down, no crank at all. There is a rapid, but very muted...

2002 Explorer Happened suddenly. Pulled into my driveway, shut off vehicle before realizing I had to roll up windows. Turned key forward, and all electricity cut out. Keeping key inserted without turning, I have very limited electricity: car beeps with car door open, power outlet works, THEFT...

Hi all I don't if the is the same or not but here's what has happened to me yesterday So I had a mechanic look at my truck for another issue and he tried to jump or reset the computer with a jump wire for the positive to the negative battery cable so he told me, now when I drove it home the...

I have a 2003 Explorer XLS with a 4.0 V6 that will not start. It will crank but seems to not be firing. I replaced the spark plugs. It still will not start.

Hello, I just finished replacing my heads and manifolds with headers. Got it all back together went to start it and it started right up. Wouldnt idle but thats nothing new (Probably bad IAC). Normally it will idle after a minute or so of holding the gas to about 1K rms. It did eventually idle...

I've been dealing with these issues for going on two months now. The problems originally started when I was getting excessive EGR flow. I replaced the valve the sensor and the solenoid. The car always started just ran really rough. After I changed the parts the car refuses to start at all, just...

Hey guys a few weeks back my 1998 4.0 OHV Explorer started misfiring bad, not keeping an acceptable idle, and burning tons of unused fuel. It was on my way home from work. Finally the CEL came on as I was parking it. The code brought up was p0402 as I'm sure you know it was excessive EGR flow...

Hello all, I am new to the forum. I have a 2005 4.6 Limited and about a month ago after driving to work it would not start. Just crank and crank. When the tow showed up it started and drove onto the truck, but upon getting home refused to start. I started cheapest and replaced fuel filter which...

I posted this thread last week looking for some answers (didn't find any) but you can see what my symptoms are: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/index.php?threads/09-explorer-no-start-rsc-service-now-theft-light-blinking-gauge-cluster-dead.446294/ So anyway, I ordered a new transciever since...

I've got an unusual setup. I obtained a 1949 Chevy Panel truck that sits on a 1998 Ford Explorer Chassis. It did run (or so I was told) but I can only get it to fire if I put fuel into the intake manifold. So far, I've checked the relays, fuses, changed the crankshaft sensor, fuel pump...

My brother has a 1999 Ford Explorer 4.0L OHV. He was driving it a month and a half ago when it started making like a clattering noise (could of been it sputtering or backfireing). It died and would not start so we towed it home let it sit for awhile and it still will not start. turns over but...

Two days ago I couldn't start my truck in the morning, no click, no crank, but power to dash/accessories. But was able to start truck on first attempt in the late afternoon that same day, which had been sunny. I chalked it up to moisture, and the next morning after an early a.m. rain shower I...

Hi folks! I had a clicking noise with a slight "eehhhhhhh" noise when idling and it got faster/louder when accelerating. I pulled over and turned off the car to check it out. The noise sounded like it was coming from the front where the top-right pulley is. Started back up and drove 2 blocks...

I recently had my radiator and hoses replaced now my poor trucks temp gauge goes all the way up to almost overheating and back to normal while driving. She will also go to a low idle and stall with a sluggish acceleration at times (not all the time). My heater would blow cold air and the ac was...

My wife drove our 2003 Ex to work 2 days ago. Ran fine, no issues. Ex sat all day, would not start at end of day. Wife reported only minor idle issues every now and then, hard to believe it went from starting and idling fine to no start 8 hours later. Checked fuel pressure, good, checked...

Hello, My '13 Ex Ltd (37k miles) recently developed an interesting problem. After refueling the vehicle, it is difficult to get it to start. After pushing the start button, the engine will crank for about 8-10 seconds before finally starting, and the Check Engine light is on. Between...

Earlier this year I bought a 2005 Ford Explorer 4.0/V6/2-wheel-drive with upwards of 200k miles (maybe about 170k or so). In very short order I discovered that the vehicle would sometimes not start upon turning the key. When the issue presents itself NOTHING AT ALL HAPPENS: the starter neither...

So I was driving my explorer a few days ago, pulled up at home and parked it. A little while later I went to go start wiring up my new sound system, 4 new speakers, sub, amp, the whole lot. got the speakers in fine and they sound great. Started running the wires for the amp and had the power...

My 94 explorer will not start every time now. If I turn the key to on, the fuel pump will turn on and prime the system to 40 psi, and the engine will start. If from the the off position, i turn it all the way to start the engine, it will not add any pressure, and will not start. Engine cranks...

I have an 88 ford bronco II with no fuel. I have previously replaced both fuel pumps and filters. It ran for about three months after that and then stopped. The pps do not come on when you cycle the key but the relay clicks like it is working. I have tried jumping the fuel pump from the EEC test...

So I woke up this morning and my 2005 Sport Track (4.0L) would not start, turned over like crazy just no combustion. After I tested the fuel pump fuse and relay, my father (the previous owner) mentioned it did the same thing to him once and to fix it he had to start the engine with the fuel cap...
