PSD Down Again

I have had my Ford PSD now since Aug. 03 and Nov. 03 the CPS went out. Towed it to Ford and paid the 100.00 deductible. Now its dead again in the employee parking lot at my work. Exact same thing. Crank, Crank, no tack movement, no start. Can it really be possible that the CPS is out again. I cant have a truck that is not dependable. Is this going to be a regular thing.

It sounds like the CPS, unless I'm just sadly mistaken. From what I vaguely remember, too much moisture is what kills it. You could easily replace the CPS yourself, it's a relatively easy fix to a sometimes common problem. There are alot of threads on this, do a search and you'll find what you need to fix it. Unless you're under warranty, I'd fix it myself. Don't buy the part from your dealership, you'll get ripped off. If you buy from an International dealership, you'll save yourself about $100. It's about $88 give or take.

Have you washed the engine recently or been in water?
