The theft light
Does it go off when cranking the starter?

Check engine light
Does it go off when cranking?

Check for spark

yes lights go off, will check again for spark and report back
 






Okay this is good
The theft light going off while cranking generally means the security system is happy with your key

The check engine light going off while cranking means your pcm is powered up and it is seeing a signal from the crank sensor when the engine rotates

Now it’s time to test for fuel pressure and for spark

The last test would be compression, looking for any signs that this engine may have jumped time

The 05 sport trac I love them, they are beautiful, last year if a great platform.. but the 05’has some crappy one year parts. The instrument cluster is part of the computer system and it is the only instrument cluster like itself… 05 trac only.
They also use a fuel pump driver module as you know and a one year pcm to control everything. That kinda stinks especially when they do this and won’t start

So the basics, fuel spark air
That’s how we test without buying parts

Checked and I do have spark
Changed crank pos sensor and NO start
I forgot to add, I put in a new cluster that was from a sport trac made the same week on the same assembly line. No change
 






So fuel pressure? Is the pump coming on?
If you have adequate fuel pressure then it is time for a compression test
To make sure the engine has not jumped time
