Have a Ford F350, 7.3L turbo diesel with automatic transmission. Sometimes, on the turn of the key, the truck will not start. no noise, no nothing... just as if all batteries are dead. If I push up on the gear shift ****, then try again, it starts right up.
any idea what might cause this? i'm wondering if it's the starter solenoid, but i'm not sure.
it's not a real big deal, but i figure one day the gear shift trick will stop working and i'll actually have to find and fix the issue!
