We finally figured out what was causing the no crank no start issue on our 2003 Mercury Marauder. After one year of ownership, the problem was discovered. Link to the wiring pigtail used in the video: amzn.to/3zeLk8w
Holy crap, I have the same problem with my 06 grand marquis, it's not a daily problem, have thrown starter, battery, alternator, spent 500 on 2 different garages, can't duplicate the problem, listening to you. It's my problem to, and Ford couldn't find an issue, I never turn car off when I'm out on a short trip, hoping car don't die. I've only had the car for 3 months and problem happen a couple weeks ago, after I replaced everything, I threw a trickle charger and next morning it started, and since I've had fire and local Napa shop, can't duplicate it, but Napa told me that ground to engine was really corroded, they fix the issue, but don't think that's was issue, and car starts everyday for 2 weeks, your video is much needed, be honest I think you know more than these garages, because you have the car with the issue
I’m glad I could help and hopefully this will fix the issue for you. I just got frustrated enough to dive in deep to the wiring. Thanks for watching and good luck!!
Great deductive work and the video presentation that kept the audience (me) intrigued. I think someone already monkeyed with that connector widening the terminal that caused a loss of the proper contact with the pin. I hope the expedition and the town car projects are also moving along. I look forward to the next videos. Best of luck!
Thank you!!! Someone was definitely in there before me. Expedition is back on the road and was just aligned Thursday, but found that both front lower ball joints are bad. I’ll order those soon and knock it out one weekend. Thanks for watching!!
What pins where you probing on the range sensor I know it’s 2 or 3 years later and you might not remember but I’m having the same problem with my marauder and it’s very annoying I just threw a new engine into it and now it does this lol it just just not want to live
It’s been too long, but I remember they were at the end of the connector to the trans range sensor. I used a schematic I found on google to figure out which wires along with a service manual check list. Good luck and thanks for watching!!
