Engine cranks but won't start up

80

Asked by Jenns_2010 Nov 02, 2017 at 11:24 AM about the 2010 Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I had EXACT SAME ISSUES this morning and tried to do
what you said. No luck. So checked fuses under hood of
my 2010 and for whatever reason, pulled #43 (was burned
up) left that fuse out of it's slot and truck started right up.
Crazy it would start by pulling that particular fuse as it was
for back up lamp relay.

Yeah did that first, did need to get a new battery but after installing that, still would crank but not turn over. So started searching on line and came across this forum and read what several had already tried to do or had to do while wanting to throw up thinking of the gobs of money I'd have to spend to "fix". Then came across people talking about fuses and tadaaa, pulling #43 for whatever reason ....worked! But is mind boggling why that particular fuse as it was for "backup light relay" SMH! Just happy I didn't have to spend but $150 on the new battery as many others on here spent a TON and hope what they spent, was TRULY the cause of their issues.
