Turns over but wont start fuel pump not making noise when turn key on
SOURCE: 98 ford windstar has clicking noise under dash and won't start
The clicking noise is most likly the starter solinoid cycling in and out. This is due to low battery voltage. charge the battery, then have the battery and charging system tested. Some auto supply stores will do this for free for you in the hopes of selling parts
good luck
SOURCE: solenoid was bad replaced it
Check the fuel pump cut off switch located behind the carpet on the passenger side up unde the heater box, pull the carpet back and see if the button on top of the switch is pressed down, if not there behind the panel passenger footwell right side same thing also make sure the switch has power coming in and going out. BUT! you gotta be quick the fuel pump relay controls this power and only suppllies power for 2-3 seconds then it turns off. so plan ahead get your test equipment all set-up and surn the ignition on if you have power great turn off the key and move test stuff to tho other wire on the fuel shut off switch get ready and turn on the key power good no power bad fuel pump switch but No power to the switch likely a bad ffuel pump relay.

try cleaning the connector that goes to the fuel pump, sometimes they corrode on inside. If that does not fix, test the wires feeding fuel pump with a multi meter until the condition shows itself again, if voltage drops to zero or very low then wiring problem, if voltage is unchanged with problem and fuel pump is not working and connectors are all clean, try replacement of fuel pump.
SOURCE: Where is the fuel pump relay and fuse?
Under vehicle, driver side, below seating area,
mounted on frame in fuel line
