2014 6.7 won't start

Hello guys I'm trying to figure out what's going on with my 2014 6.7 Powerstroke. So my story is as follows:
I had some major damage done to the right door of the truck so i had to put it in the shop for some body work. Three days later I receive a phone call saying that the truck won't start. The reason I was told was because the door had to be disconnected from its power source which possibly threw off a code that would not let the truck start. At first it would not do anything when the key was turned, from what I understand. Than after several attempts the motor turned over but would not start. Is there something that would cause this to happen.
Any and all reponse's are very much appreciated
Thank you in advance
Bo

As stupid as this sounds and probably isn't the case at all... Make sure no cell phone chargers are plugged in (or anything else for that matter).

Granted - it's more possible something got shorted out by whatever caused the "major damage" to the right door or they knocked something loose when they changed it out.

Some other obvious causes could be low voltage and our batteries may need to be charged or changed.

Thanks Dakster but I actually drove the truck to the shop there were no starting issues at all, it seems as thou the problem occurred after they disconnected the door. The tech did mention something about a body module that may have been disturbed causing a code to stop the truck from starting.

check the fuel cutoff switch in the passenger side of the dash.


Fully charged batteries?

I was thinking fuel cutoff switch because of the location but it should still turn over. Bet there is a short somewhere, or dead batteries.

Hey thanks guys I will forward that info to the tech
im hopeful that the problem will be found today
For some reason i still believe that body module has something to do with it. Can someone explain to me what it does I got bits and pieces from the tech working on the truck. By the way there is a programmer on the truck.
thanks again guys your info is very much appreciated

Sounds like a security system locked out the starter. Removing a door is pretty much the same as a break-in.

In his first post, OP says it would do nothing at first, but now it will turn over, but not start. I would turn the key and listen for the low pressure fuel pump running under the driver's door. If not, I would check the inertia switch to rule that out.
