I have a 2000 7.3 F250 that suddenly will not start. Batt's are new and replaced starter. When I turn the key everything cycles like it should bur I get nothing when I turn the key. Like I said I tried putting a new starter in and that was a little spendy any ideas would be great.

have you changed the Cam Position Sensor? if not, go to your local Ford dealer, there is a recall on that part for 1997's and newer. it's free to you.

I have replaced the cam position sensor already! Thanks though.

Is it turning over

 

[fireboy68]

No, When I turn the key the glow plug indicator activates and cycles. then I get nothing when I turn the key.

 

[farmboypowerstroke]

well if its not turning over then maybe your not getting power to the starter?

 

[fireboy68]

Correct, Do these have nutral safety swithches that go bad or is there a cylanoid relay?

 

[smitty16s]

you know you could of got a bad cps ford is giving out crap replacements as well.

 

[fireboy68]

When it went bad before the motor would still turn over. Would the cps not alow the motor to actually turn over?

 

[smitty16s]

ive heard it will lock the motor and not turn over, that didnt happen to mine , but my friends "x" wouldnt move he had to have it towed to ford.
