2003 Sport Trac
So i have a 2003 sport trac and it will intermittently die on me. at one point i was going down the hwy and it just quit. i thought it was the fuel pump and replace it, i also made sure the fuel pump reset button was pushed. it worked for a while just fine and then it started it doing it again. yesterday it was running just fine, i shut it off in my friends driveway and i would not start again. i noticed that if i moved the wires and or harness that goes to the reset button it would fire back up. i drove it home and this morning it did it again. I tried a few time to crank it, but it did not start. I went back to the wires at the at the harness for the reset and it fired back up. is there a fix for this presumed wiring issue?

It could be the cutoff switch itself. On my old '05 Trac my son accidentally kicked it with his size 13's and killed the motor in the middle of the Interstate. It was never right after that and I had to get a new switch.
