Ford Five Hundred NO START
50

Asked by GuruZH6R7 Nov 06, 2017 at 05:38 PM about the 2007 Ford Five Hundred Limited AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Went to start my ford five hundred today and it
wouldn’t!  Battery cranks very well - so ITS good,
Alternator making headlights bright - so ITS good,
Fuel smelly (I smell excess after pressing pedal
while trying) and tank full - so ITS good, wants to
start, but after starting, (and automatically shutting
off ignition ENGAGE)... it quits!  Due to today’s cars
having soooo many sensors and it all being
computer controlled,... check all fluids and oils,..
‘cus THEY might be low or empty and yelling
computer to STOP before engine damage occurs!  
SOLUTION: to my problem WAS the Antifreeze
WAS so low that its SENSOR and the computer
Stopped Engine from causing smashed. I ADDED
50/50 (1/2 Antifreeze & 1/2 water) and IT STARTED!  
Now I just have to continually watch periodically to
FIND leak!  GOOD LUCK everyone!  I hope THIS
post helped!

So... besides Checking ALL the BASIC area’s; Battery, Alternator, Fuel... also, check; Oil Level, Power Steering Oil level, AND Antifreeze/ Coolant levels! These NEWER cars SENSORS are watching EVERYTHING! - Good Luck!
