2006 Ford Expedition will not start this morning, battery checks 12 volts, will not do anything when turn key to start position

Ran great , parked over night, tried to start next morning and would not do anything when put key switch in start position. Center security light goes off when in run and start position. Tried spare Key still won't do anything. Checked battery voltage was low, not dead. Gave full charge to 13 volts and still will not start.

You can jump starter relay to see if starter will crank the engine. Pull the starter relay, use jumper wire between terminals 30 and 87, terminal 30 is hot all the time and there is a fuse, the starter motor should crank the engine. If you try that make sure tranny is in park or neutral and parking brake is set. Two voltage circuits at starter motor, one is hot all the time. The other goes hot when relay is energized. The starter motor grounds through engine block. Battery positive and negative connections are important.

SOURCE: 2000 ford windstar won't crank over,but pats keys good, and batt.

First thing I would check is to see if you have power at the trigger wire of the starter motor while someone is trying to start the vehicle for you. It will be a Yellow with a light blue trace. If you do then I would check to see if the main battery cable has power to it all the time when someone is trying to crank it. If it does then I would hold a test light on the case of the starter motor and have someone try to crank it. Make sure that the ground you use for this test is on the negative battery terminal not just anywhere on the car. If the test light lights while you are cranking it then you have a bad ground. Hook up a set of jumper cables from the battery negative terminal and clamp it directly on to your starter motor and see if it starts. If you check it and the test light doesn't light up and all the other checks are good then your starter motor has failed. If one of the other tests has failed then you have a starter relay problem or something else. let me know what you find out.

Yes it could be the ignition switch. You may need a security bit for the 2 screws that hold the switch to the column. Autozone, Oreillys and sometimes Walmart carry them.
There are a few screws in the plastic housing around the steering colum. Usually Phillips type. Get the plastic off and the switch will be there with at least 2 security screws holding it to the column. Then just remove and replace.

I suggest the possibility of a loose connector, maybe the main engine connector remove inspect pins apply diaelectric compound and reconnect the connector with care to assure good contact with all pins.

Ford 1997 f150.4.6 auto won't start help ?

If you jump battery positive to solenoid terminal s the starter should kick in and crank, if not run a separate ground from battery negative to solenoid base if nothing changes check the neutral safety switch with a test light (not a voltmeter). I hope this helps. Take Care.

See if you can jump start the car from another battery which is sound. If you can then the battery you have is rubbish and must be replaced.

1999 ford expedition wont start after battery been out for 2 months

Recharge the battery and retry.

Turn on the vehicle headlights. If they dim considerably when cranking, then your battery requires replacement.

I have a 2006 ford escape. When I turn the key to start the vehicle, it did not start. All my power is on but no clicking sound when I turn the key to start the car. Is it my starter or something else?

Safely secure the parking brake put a 12 Volt test light on the starter wires at the starter have someone help you by turning the key to the start position , if the test light lights replace the starter , if the test light don't light check your fuse if it is good replace the relay .

We are trying to find the fuse for the starter solenoid. the car is a 1998 ford escort lx and will not turn over so we are thinking it's the solenoid but want to check the fuse first.

I don't know about the 98 Escort, a fuse on a starter circuit is very unusual.

You should check the voltage at the battery - then at the starter solenoid, battery side. If you have 12 volts at the battery, 12 volts at the battery side of the solenoid, great. Now, have a partner turn the key to start position and test the starter side of the solenoid. If you haved 12 volts with the key on start position, I would be thinking starter. If you don't have 12 volts on the battery side with the key in start position, I'd be thinking solenoid.

You could also jump the solenoid with a jumper cable to check the starter operation.

Use a volt meter if you have one - a 12 volt test light if you don't have a meter.

2001 expedition 5.4l. wont crank

get a multimeter and test battery output, if more than 13v when you turn key to crank position if below then battery may be faulty and not holding charge, check starter relay and fuse, if ok also check for any parasitic draw from any accesary that might draw down battery when engine not running

EXPEDITION WILL NOT START SOMETIMES, TURNS OVER FINE ITS LIKE THE SPARK HAS BEEN SHUT OFF

Dear Chuck Check the voltage to you coil. You should have 12 volts at the coil with key on. Check the same wire for 12 volts during crank. If voltage drops to 9-10 you will have "No Start". If this is what happens jump 12 volts to coil with key on. Don't worry about trying to find why the voltage was lost because the connector for that circut is lost in wiring hell. Good luck Moe
