He also mentioned something about putting in a new ignition.. He said i can buy one at any auto parts store? Anyone know what he's talking about here..? Thanks

 

no idea.. but remote start is another clue.. the starter relay will be controlled thru the remote start box.... bet it has a separate fuse too.

new ignition, switch??

Got it, it was the starter relay on the side of the fender!!!

Thanks for all the help guys!

 

you got a pic of that relay position? that way we can help others.. is it a stock relay or from the remote start?

glad you got it tho..

It is just the stock one they pulled up in their computer, but make sure you buy the motorcraft one because at first they gave me the first one their computer showed which ended up not working because it was one of those universal type parts. Thanks again for all the help guys!

I have some pics of it, how do attach them?

 

my F150 had same problem, where I could only jump the relay to start truck. Replaced relay all is OK. The relay is basically just a switch between the key and the starter, and if there is no contact inside it, you can still jump it over the terminals to start. Check voltage at terminal from the key contact on the relay with key to the start position. If there is voltage there, its your relay

 

unfortunately, FTE sets some pretty poor rules.. have to have 25 posts to post pics from your gallery or profile, have to be a paying user to attach them inline..

upload them free to photobucket and reference from there..
