04 explorer
ok '04 explorer has no crank, no fuel problem. I checked the starting system it all checks out from key to starter except the relay is not recieving a ground from the pcm. When I jumper the wire to a ground at the pcm (with the connector disconnected) it will crank but not start (maybe because the connector was unpluged)

When i jumper the starter solinoid (with a remote starter switch) it will crank over but not start. When i spray starter fluid in the intake it will start. I havent climbed under the truck to test for power at the pump because i thought it may be related to the ground prob
PCM-maybe
or
PATSII

thx for your time
 












What does the red light on top of the dash do when you try to start it?
