Stranded HELP !!!!! Braked and Stalled

Hi Guys,

New Member with an odd problem....Narrow Road to my house and some jerk was in my lane, I slammed on my brakes to keep from getting hit and at the last minute he swerved and missed. When I hit the brakes it stalled my engine and it won't restart....

2001, 4 cyl, 5 Speed Ranger XLT.

Engine turns over but acts as if no fuel or no spark. Never had a problem in the past. Is it possible the anti lock brake system shut the truck down ?

Any fuses to look for ?

I'm stumped and my truck is sitting in a not so desirable place until I can get this figured out.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Probably inertia switch. It cuts off fuel if you are in a wreck.
Its either in the passenger side kick panel or sorta behind the glovebox i forget. do a search on it.

Damn you guys are pretty awesome.....Found the switch under the dash on passenger side, Pushed the red button and she started right up...I'd say that you probably saved me a tow bill and who knows how much more on top of that.....Now off to the neighbors house to cuss his non driving ***....I hope I wake him
