- 2013 Explorer Limited
Hello everybody, I'm having an issue with my ignition system. I recently bought a 2013 Ford Explorer Limited, FWD 3.5 liter engine. The car was bought with a dead battery after a front collision damage which was repaired successfully, to try the engine start we used another cars battery with same configuration and amp capacity and the car started without a problem both using the push button and the remote start as well. A couple of days later the car failed to start, also tried placing the fob in the back up slot and didn't start either. We thought it was the battery that didn't have enough charge so we bought a new one, after install, no start whatsoever. Everything else works fine, a couple of hours later, the car starts with no problem. There are no Trouble Codes present, the starter motor was checked and works fine.
It has been a couple of weeks and ever since it will fail starting the car randomly and without doing anything suddenly it starts. It only came with one key fob so I don't have a way to see it's a failing fob. All other functions on the fob buttons work properly, no problem with the open and close buttons, liftgate, etc.
Could I have any ideas or tips on what could be the issue? all of a sudden the car starts so its really random.
Thanks in advance for any help.
