2012 No Start Problem
My 2012 F-250 6.2L with no engine mods decided to play dead yesterday.
I turned the key (in the ignition switch) and the only sound was a click-click from the passenger side fuse box. Tried again - same result. Moved shift lever to Neutral and tried - no sound. Went back to Park and tried again - same click-click from fuse box. (two clicks then silence)
Checked the 15 amp ignition fuse - good, but replaced it anyway.
Tried again - same results as before.
Checked a 10 amp fuse in fuse box under the hood as well as the 40 amp relay fuse for ignition/run - - both good.
Tried to start the truck again - same result. One more try before getting irritated ..... it started !
Called dealer service rep and asked if he had seen this problem before and his response was - "No, not on any of the 6.2L trucks." Great. Just what I wanted to hear, I have something going on that has not been seen before. Not a good feeling.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience with their 2011/2012/2013 6.2L truck(s). I'm interested in knowing what, if any findings were.
Thanks.

Mine hesitated for about 1 1/2 seconds after turning the key before the engine turned over today. Something tells me it will quit firing when I am far from home one day. Nothing like having confidence in a truck.
