Ford starter wiring diagram
Ford starter wiring diagram
No crank no start Ford issues are pretty easy to diagnose. Click on the illustration below and download the PDF wiring diagram of a typical Ford starting system. You’ll see that the system consists of a fuse, ignition switch, starter relay, transmission range selector (neutral safety switch on for an automatic transmission) or a start inhibit switch for a manual transmission, and a ground control circuit provided by the PCM. The PCM gets involved here because of the
ford passive anti-theft system (PATS). The PATS system must see the correct key in the ignition switch before it will provide ground to the starter relay. I’ve listed all the areas for your to test for power and ground. Good luck. And don’t forget to clean all the ground points, a corroded ground can really cause problems with these starting circuits.
