| Description of the problem | Was having trouble starting my truck one day. Cranking and cranking but not firing. Sometimes it would eventually fire, sometimes it required a jump to get it going. Took it into ford, they replaced the battery. Didn't happen for a few more days. Same thing. Crank, crank, crank, but wouldn't start. Did some searching online, and found similar situation regarding a burnt/melted fuse 27 (the fuel pump fuse). Ford knows about this issue so much that they even created a part to move the fuel pump to a larger fuse. I'm glad this issue only happened while sitting still and i was able to get the fused replaced without incident. However, i would imagine that soon my vehicle would have stopped while traveling due to the fuel pump fuse completely dying. Also seems like a fire hazard, or it could do further damage to the fuse box or to surrounding fuses. Ford should issue a recall for this immediately. |
