Learn how I Troubleshoot then repair the cranks, but won’t start condition on my 2005 F-150 5.4L Truck.
The F-150 has a regulator less fuel supply with no return Fuel System, which is controlled by a module; the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM). Many F-150 trucks on the road today, especially in northern states, are running with a corroded FPDM that should be replaced as soon as possible to prevent the condition I encountered.

Thank you so much. I measured it like you said, on the fpdm, between the white wire and the black/yellow wire, with ignition off. There was 0 volts. Then I asked a helper to turn the key to the on position and voltage between the 2 pins increased to 9.4 volts. This morning I am going out to do all the rest of the things you said. I am getting ready now. I wish ford had put the central junction box somewhere else. But it is what it is, right? I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for your help. A lot of auto repair sites leave out important things and are confusing and vague.

Not sure if this is my issue as I don't have the proper testers for fuses and pwr. It is my landlord's truck; mine broke down and he said I could put his on the road and use it for work. I paid to legalize it and it never started. Great video, finally not just someone saying hey, your fuel pump is bad lol. Been sitting for 8 months so anything could have happened. 2:30 in the morning and I'm going to just the physical condition of the module.

@StilesAutomotive Год назад

Papa, Ensure your Battery has a full charge. I assume when attempting to start the F-150 you do not hear the Fuel Pump, The F-150 Cranks and will not start, get a helper to turn the Ignition Key, while you put your Ear to the Fuel Filler Opening (with the Fuel Cap removed), you should hear the Pump Run. Have the helper turn the Key on and off a few times. The Fuel Pump should cycle on and off. If it does not - - 1) With the Ignition Key off, 2) Remove the Electrical Connector from the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM), 3) Using 2 Paper Clips jumper the Positive and Negative Electrical Connector Sockets (like I showed you in the video), 4) Turn the Ignition Key "on" ( and not to "start" or the F-150 may start and run), 5) Go back to the Fuel Filler Opening and listen for a good strong Fuel Pump, 6a) If you don't hear it, it is likely the Pump, but you don't know unless you check Voltage. 6b) If you hear the Fuel Pump, go start the F-150, and it will likely run, you have bad FPDM. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles

My truck is a 06 150 4x4 with a 5.4. 160000 miles. I had the turn over but not start condition. No trouble codes. No check engine light etc. I coild hear my fuel pump when key was turned on but not all the way to start. It ran for a couple seconds then stopped. I verified the pcm relay was good. All pcm and fuel related fuses were good. I replaced my fuel driver module but that was not the problem. Turned out i had a blow fuse - the one for the ignition coils. Replacing that fixed it

@StilesAutomotive 3 года назад

Carl, Thanks for the comment! As our trucks get older they are going to start showing their age. You are fortunate it was only a fuse. Sounds like you troubleshot in a logical manner, that is what I attempt to show in my videos. If you had not replaced the FPDM before, at the age of your truck I would have recommended it. Again, thanks for the comment! - Stiles

Yes it’s corrosion but what if my wife was driving with the kids and the truck died on the highway! Anyways Thankyou!

Thanks think it's my problem rusty 242000 miles from canada

@StilesAutomotive 3 года назад

James, of course it depends on what part of Canada you are from. I lived in Fargo ND for a couple of years and they used very little salt on the road in the winter. In most of the Midwest the Road Commission puts a LOT of salt on the roads, which cause a LOT of corrosion on vehicles. The F-150 FPDM is mounted in a position that gets salt on it but doesn't it wash water on it to clean it. As you can see from my video, my FPDM fell apart when I removed it. A word to the wise, if you have 242,000 miles on your F-150 and you haven't replaced the Module, do it as soon as you can. Best wishes for your "rusty problem". - Stiles

Thanks so much for doing this video! My son had his fuel pump on his 2007 F150 about 3 weeks ago, called today and said his truck wouldn't start/fire. After watching this video I had him take the gas cap off and listen for the fuel pump to run when the key was turned - no sound. Took a gamble and bought a new FP Drive Module and plugged it in - started right up! Dropped the spare tire and the old one looked exactly like the one in this video! It doesn't appear this was due to damage as mentioned in the video, it's just a flat out poor OEM design. The replacement module we got has two key improvements - 1) the housing case appeared to be plastic versus cast aluminum, and 2) it now has two rubber bushings to mount between the unit and the axle to keep it from bending/breaking. Thanks again!!!

Came back and it cranks but won’t start. Will start with fuel sprayed into intake, so seems like a fuel issue. Have checked fuses. Can hear fuel pump come on for a couple seconds when key is turned on, but still won’t start. So frustrating since the fuses all seem good and the driver and pump are new. Any ideas Stiles?

Found information concerning a turn over - no start problem leading to the fuel pump driver module under the rear spare tire. Checked this item for failure, turns out the ground wire for this module had broke off from the frame member. Several attempts to re-ground failed to start the truck. After stripping back wire jacket cover and some insulation found that in addition to the ground wire there is additionally a bare wire from the wiring cluster which wraps around the brown/black and the pink/black wires from the module plug, this bare wire is connected to the black/yellow wire which is grounded to the frame. Well my bare stranded wire had 90% frayed/broke away from the main b/y ground wire and looked frayed back to at least 3' as far as I could find while searching along the wire cluster along the driver side of A frame member. These 3 wires brwn/blk, pink/ blk and the bare stranded wire were wrapped in a silver foil like sheathing. I could not find good well insulated wire along this chase so i added a good pc of wire to the largest dia of the stranded bare wire and re-assembled it to the ground wire, taped and siliconed all splices - it worked like a charm! So it was not my Fuel Pump Driver Module YET!

@StilesAutomotive 2 года назад

Wilburt, it is amazing your truck ran as long as it did, I'm amazed my truck ran as long as it did with the way the FPDM fell apart. With the condition of your wires, I'm surprised your FPDM is in one piece. Like I say in the video, if you haven't replace the Module, you need to.

I might run the truck with the 2 x Jumpers installed (protect them from shorting out), if I had to run the Truck to get home.

Did you replace the Fuel Filter? Put a gauge on the Fuel Rail to help determine what is happening. Key on, Engine off you should see 35-45 psi, with the Engine running 28-55 psi.

I have one of these trucks in the middle of the jungle in Guatemala and have been fighting fuel pump issues for 3 months now with no success. I managed to get a hold of a brand new fuel pump module but either it's not grounding correctly or it's not receiving commands from the computer. I use jumper wires on the connector pin two to five and three to four like you say in the video and the truck starts and runs. I left it in there and tried to drive down the street but after 2 or 3 times maybe 10 minutes total running the brand new Bosch fuel pump burnt out. Is it safe to assume that the fuel pump was under too much stress because there is no return line? Is there no way to Jimmy rig this thing to work? I'm on dirt roads in the middle of the jungle maybe 15 mile per hour max speed, I'm just looking for a way to make it start.

@StilesAutomotive 2 года назад

Alex, You didn't say the model year and engine of your F-150. The Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) pulses the Fuel Pump on and off to regulate the fuel pressure. Yes, if you run the Fuel Pump continually with no pressure regulation your Fuel Pump will likely prematurely fail. Your new FPDM grounds thru the Mounting Bolts to the Truck crossmember. Removing the Bolts and reinstalling them on a new FPDM likely has a good enough ground, however, you should remove it and clean the Mounting Bolts, new FPDM and the Crossmember at the mounting location with a Wire Brush. You should clean the FPDM Electrical Connector (like I did in the video) with Contact Cleaner and use Dielectric Grease on it. With that said, I think your real problem is . . . You didn't mention any fault codes or Check Engine Light . . . and you should have for this problem . . . but, I believe you have a bad Fuel Injection Pressure Sensor, (below is the link to the Rock Auto Page for my 2005 F-150 5.4L Sensor, buy/order using your Truck information). This Pressure Sensor is located on the Engine Fuel Rail, Mine is on the Leftside (Driver's Side) of the Air Filter Housing, behind the Power Steering Fluid Reservoir. You should normally get a Fault Code for this sensor, but maybe you didn't. When you replace it, again, clean the Electrical Connector and apply Di-electric Grease. Next, if the above didn't fix your problem, Clean the Electrical Connector(s) (I need to do a video on this, but have not) under the Plastic Cover on the outside of the Frame on the Leftside (Driver's Side) of the Truck. These Connectors, joint the Rear Harnesses to the Front Harnesses on the Truck and can became corroded. You should clean and Dielectric Grease these some day, anyway. Even if you fix the problem. There is more, if you still have a problem you need to clean the Grounds and Electrical Connectors on the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM is located in the Engine Compartment near the Battery on the Firewall. Be careful, don't clean the Connectors if you don't need to, you could damage the PCM Connector Pins. But, Someday if you replace the Battery, clean the PCM Grounds with a Wire Brush and coat with Anti-seize. If it comes to cleaning PCM Connectors, do a continuity check on the Signal Wire from the PCM to the FPDM, these are the 2 smaller wires I point out in the video. There is not a easy way to jerry-rig or bypass this system.

I have a 2013 E-350 with the same problem, it does start, but only runs for about 10 minutes then stalls and won't restart, just turns over. If I let it sit for another 10 minutes it will start again and run for about 2 minutes. the garage thinks it's electrical, but I tend to think this is the problem. For a $50 part I'm pretty sure I can change it out myself. Thanks for the great video.

@StilesAutomotive Год назад

Wayne, For F-150s, If your Fuel Pump Drive Module (FPDM) is corroded at all replace it, your E-350 FPDM is not the same, it is plastic, and I'm not convinced it is the problem, it could be, but when it fails it fails. I think . . . did your shop check the fuel pressure at the Fuel Rail? Was it ok? if low pressure your Fuel Pump may be failing. or your Fuel Pressure Sensor on the Fuel Rail could be causing a problem. I showed in the video how to jumper the FPDM Electrical Connector, your Electrical Connector is different, I believe you would jumper the 2 outside Sockets of the 3, then with the Ignition Key on the Fuel Pump will run at full pressure, does your Van start and run, now? If so the Fuel Pump is ok. Yes, it is a $50 part (for your E-350, not F-150s) and I would recommend you pay the extra money for a Motorcraft Part, I don't always, but in this case I do. - Let me know how it goes! - Stiles

@@StilesAutomotive My shop, the local Ford dealership, thinks it is electrical due to all the extra wires under my dash, the vehicle used to be a mobility transit van with wheelchair ramp. All wires for the exterior lights and ramp were cut and taped years before we bought it. But I started it up and drove it back from them and had no problem, no stalling. It just started recently and it has been sitting in my driveway. I did buy the part directly from Ford. There has never been any electrical smell at all that I have noticed either.

Tom, sounds like no spark. The FPDM can cause a cranks, but won't start, like it did for me in the video. But you say you can hear the Fuel Pump running, take the Gas Cap off, put your ear near it and have someone else turn the Ignition Key to "on", you should hear the Fuel Pump good and strong. Next check for Spark. Sounds like you are doing the right things, Fuses, Relays . . . Did you Truck run after replacing the Camshaft Position Sensors? Power at the PCM? Quick Start is Starting Fluid? (Be careful!) If so this leads me to believe, no spark. Stiles

I started thinking fuel again!? I was about to remove the valve covers, possibly drop the pan and check my timing and phasers. But could a bad fuel module make it run sometimes, but at a very bad idle? Probably a lot easier to test then taking off the valve covers. Any feedback would be great!

When I turn the key to start position I get approximately 9 volts on the white wire from the fuel pressure drive module. Is that sufficient voltage to run the fuel pump? Or is there a voltage drop somewhere that is keeping the (new) fuel pressure drive module from receiving enough voltage to power the fuel pump? Your video is the best one I'v e seen. Thank you one million times. Please help me with this voltage problem. It's like you said, engine cranks but don't run. It's a 2006 ford f150 5.4 litre. I have watched about 30 video's so far and spent a week trying to get this truck to start, including jumpering the 2 sets of outside pins on the fuel pressure drive module, which did cause it to start, plus verifying grounds , fuses, wiring, etc. Again, thank you so much for any help you can offer.

@StilesAutomotive 3 года назад

Winter, Glad to help. We want close to Battery Voltage at the FPDM Connector White Power Input Wire, Socket 5. Voltage drop a few tens is ok, that's Battery Voltage minus 0.2 to 0.4 Volts. We want 12 Volts at that Socket. We need to be clear, you said "from" the FPDM, the White Wire is "to" the FPDM. If you are talking about the Brown-White Wire "from" the FPDM and "to" the Fuel Pump, that's different, I don't think you are. How did you measure 9 Volts at the White Wire at Socket 5 and using the Socket 3 (Black Wire) Ground like I did my video? If so you need to measure measure voltage again, using a good ground, use a wire and go all the way to the Battery Negative Terminal if you have to. You wrote about grounds, did you find and clean the ground on the Black Wire at the FPDM Connector? I didn't do this in my video. If you still measure 9 Volts at the FPDM Connector, measure voltage before and after (both wires) on the Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch (left-side of the Fuse Panel, shown in video). Is all that clear? 1) Measure Voltage at Socket 5 (White Wire) of FPDM Connector using good ground. 2) If 11.8 to 12.6 Volts, goto step 3, if 9 Volts goto step 4. 3) Clean ground at Truck Frame from FPDM Connector and verify Black Ground Wire is ok. 4) Measure Voltage at Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch (before and after) should be Battery Voltage on both. 5) If 11.8 to 12.6 Volts - likely White Wire to FPDM Connector is bad. If 9 Volts we need to look at why. I look forward to your reply - Stiles

@StilesAutomotive Год назад

Vernon, Sorry for the late reply (I normally get to your type of question with in 24 hrs), I was down range. The Spark side (and PCM side) of your problem, often results in a OBDII code, but the Fuel Side (ie Pressure Sensor, Fuel Pump Driver Module and Fuel Pump) does not. Intermittent problems are hard to diagnose, I'd love to know your Fuel Pressure at the Fuel Rail. 1) Fuel Pumps can get old a flow less fuel, but normally don't fail this way, they stop all together. 2) Like I stated in my Video that you are commenting on (and the reason for the video) if you haven't replaced your FPDM, I'd do so, but You need to pay attention to the wires (intermittent problems are very often broken wires or bad grounds), remove the Electrical Tape and Harness Wrap from the Driver Module to the mounting location on the Truck Frame and inspect the wires, clean the connectors, re-wrap them with Electrical Tape. 2a) on the Left (Driver's) Side Frame (and on the outside of Frame) and mid-way between the wheels is a Plastic Cover that protects Harness Connectors, clean the connectors there. 3) You have a Fuel Pressure Sensor on the Fuel Rail on the Engine. It could be going bad or maybe dirty, in either case replace it. For the FPDM and the sensor, I would only use Ford Motorcraft Parts. Use a lot of a good connector cleaner like this one: QD Contact Cleaner CRC amzn.to/3DKfOQ3 Let me know how it goes! - Stiles

Sutton, The first thing a Military Mechanic asks the Equipment Operator is, "what is the last thing you touched?" I'm trying to think what you could have done, but your problem sounds like a Fuel Problem, not a Spark Plug or Coil (CoP) problem. You commented on my "2004 thru 2008" F-150 Video; First, what Year, Model and Engine do you have? When you removed the Number 4 Coil and Spark Plug (Passenger's Side Back), did you remove the PCM? Did you remove the Electrical Connectors on the PCM? Did you touch the wires on the Electrical Connectors on the PCM. The "let it sit for a few minutes" doesn't sound electrical to me, sounds Fuel or Heat related and you didn't drive it far so, likely not heat. I'd love to know the Fuel Pressure on the Engine Fuel Rail during this cycle of run, die, crank and no start, and run. - Stiles

Your Fuel Pump will continue to run with the key on, which will over pressurize the Fuel System. Best case, your Engine will run Fuel Rich. Will it hurt the Fuel System, probably not, it should handle the extra pressure. Will it hurt the Fuel Pump, probably not for a few miles.

It may be worth your time to remove the Cover Clean the area and disconnect each Electrical Connector there, Clean with electrical contact Cleaner, and apply generous amounts of di-electric grease to the Connector, then reconnect them.

@StilesAutomotive Год назад

Juan, a Fuel Pressure Regulator is a mechanical device that control the Fuel pressure by returning some Fuel back to the Fuel Tank. A Fuel Pressure Sensor sends a signal to the Fuel Pump Driver Module to regulate or control the fuel pressure. The Fuel System that uses the Regulator has a Fuel Return Line and the System that uses the Sensor does not. - Stiles

@StilesAutomotive Год назад

David, You have to be more specific for me to help you, You said "it is still a crank/no start" then in the next sentence "still couldn't crank". A crank and no start condition means the Engine turns over with the Starter, but the Engine fails to run or fire. This means you are not putting into the Engine: Air, Fuel or Spark, (assuming no other mechanical failures). Air is easy and likely not the issue unless the Truck has been sitting a long time. Fuel or Spark, you are working the Fuel Side if looking at the FPDM, Yep replace it if corroded at all, clean the Electrical Connector and grounds, check the Wiring Harness to the FPDM (from Frame to FPDM), check Fuel Pressure at the Fuel Rail (with the FPDM connector jumpered like in the video), if low Pressure, Fuel Pump is at Fault, if good Pressure, Fuel Pressure Sensor on the Fuel Rail is likely the problem. - Stiles

Erad, Makes me wonder how much Fuel you have at the Fuel Rail, Can you get a Fuel Pressure Gauge and read the pressure at the Fuel Rail? First do this; After you experience the "start for 5 seconds and shutoff", cycle the Ignition Key on and off (like priming the Fuel System after running out of Fuel, turn Key "On" 1, 2, 3, 4, turn Key "Off" 1, 2, do this 5 times), now start the Truck. If it runs, your Fuel Pump could be weak, (I don't know what it sounds like), has your Fuel Filter either been replaced?

@@StilesAutomotive Hi bro, so I changed fuel pressure sensor, and the throttle body and the sensor. It still does the same thing, started and dies after 3 seconds and never start again. I removed the fuel pressure sensor by the fuel rail again, I cranked it, there's high pressure fuel flying out. So I know it getting enough fuel. I hear click from relays and fuses are good. Please what is the next thing to do. If timing chain is going bad, will it start at all? Remember, it always starts once at first attempt every day.

@pauldixon8609 4 года назад

What if it starts with old one but not the new one

@StilesAutomotive 4 года назад

Paul, Can you verify you bought the correct part number? I know there are several Ford Part Numbers of the FPDM that look similar. I don't know if they are different generations of the same part, but think that are different FPDMs for different Ford Vehicles. If you have the correct part, look for bent pins on your new Module. I don't think the Module grounds through the base of the Module, so that shouldn't be an issue. I'd be interested to know if the old Module drives (or turns on) the Fuel Pump continuously. This would mean it failed on, and you may not be receiving a signal from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Let me back up to verify. With the new FPDM the truck doesn't run, but if you go back to the old FPDM is does run again? Or, it did run with the old FPDM, now doesn't run with either the new or old FPDMs? For the first case, this is what I was talking about above. For the second case, you likely blew a fuse and need to check fuses 34 (20 amp PCM Power) and Fuse 5 (7.5 amp PCM Keep Alive). Hope this help, let me know how your troubleshooting goes. - Stiles

So, I finally got the inertia switch out last night, by hanging upside down off the passenger seat. I think I now need to go to the chiropracter. I couldn't actually test the circuit because everyone went home and there was no one to turn the ignition on. Today, hopefully, I can finally accomplish the mission. I'll let you know what happens.. Thanks again for the help. I'd like to freind you on facebook, if you don't mind leaving your name

@StilesAutomotive 3 года назад

Winter, you didn't tell me the whole story. Did you determine the Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch is bad? What voltage did you get at the Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch? Did you measure voltage at Pin 5 of the FPDM Connector (Black Wire) and go to a good ground? I recommended NOT measuring voltage across Pin 5 to Pin 3, but going to a good ground (like all the way back to the Negative Terminal on the Battery, if you have to). - Stiles

@winter4345 3 года назад

I could not get a voltage reading on the inertia switch. Oddly there was no voltage before it and none after it. I bench tested the switch and it was bad (open). I splice the 2 wires to it together. Then I jumpered the 2 sets of the fuel pump drive module together and the truck started and I drove it home. Now, this drive module was brand new, but looking at it closely I realized that it wasn't completely together. Now i know. Thank God. I can't even begin to tell you how much i appreciate your help. Thank you a hundred million times! Now I can finally get my life back. :)

@StilesAutomotive 2 года назад

Villain, that sounds like a fuel or spark related problem, because it just died. It also sounds like you are doing the right things, checking Fuses and Relays. Back to Basics: for a engine to run you must put in Air, Fuel, and Spark. Unless the car hasn't run in months you know it is getting Air. Spark you can check at the Spark Plug. Fuel check Fuel pressure at the Fuel Rail. You didn't mention any Check Engine Lights or Fault Indication. This might lead you to a Sensor Failure or other indication. Did you hear any noises at all prior to the Engine dying? if no, ok, but, if yes, could be something more serious like Camshaft Timing. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles

Did you check for OBDII Fault Codes? If you are sure you are getting fuel to the engine, you need to check for spark, a no spark condition has many potential causes. If your FPDM is corroded and never replaced, I'd replace it now, while you are looking at it. - Stiles

@StilesAutomotive 3 года назад

@@cameroncopeland8919 Cameron, we need to backup. You overheated your engine (04 thru 08 F-150) and now you have a cranks but won't start condition? Tell me more. What happened after you overheated the engine, you drove home . . . Truck hasn't started since? What you say in your other comment is true, just 'cause the pump runs doesn't mean you are getting sufficient fuel pressure at the fuel rail, however, you can tell a lot from the sound of the pump. You can tell if it is strong and hitting hard, or if it is slow and laboring. Often when the fuel pump fails, it fails. Back to the other side, Spark, if you have a no spark condition, the fault is not likely the spark plugs or the individual coil on plug coils. It is a PCM fault or a sensor telling the PCM not to fire (or a bad wire). - Stiles
