hello tanya
no engine told ,no VIN
does the starter crank the engine fast. heard or seen?
it fails to crank or
cranks fast but fails to start the engine and run over 10 seconds long.
if starter is dead or silent or only clicks say so.
my guess is NO CRANK"starter is dead"
and guess #2 you hear the starter relay click.
and starter is DEAD, engine will not crank.
keep in mind we are deaf and blind ,helping.
does the dash cluster error lamps show IMMO security failing? "immobilizer"???????
if yes try the 2nd key, given to you day 1 new car.
if not IMMO failing then
jumper cable start the car, as in call AAA club tow say to the guys JUMP my battery..
OR CHECK BATTERY CABLE LUGS FOR RUSTY AND OR LOOSE
OR LOAD TEST THE BATTERY.
END POST FOR NO CRANK
Comments:
THERE ARE 6 CAUSES. no crank. (DOES IT CRANK IN NEUTRAL>?
IF DOES CRANK , WE HAVE 50 CAUSES.
OF NOT STARTS. AND A TON OF TESTS USING TOOLS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN.
do you want guessing or testing

call for mobile car repair
tow car to a shop.
jump the car.
take battery to a shop ask them to test it/?
they charge it and load test it.
Could have a bad cable , to check voltage drop starter circuit ! Starter Voltage Drop Watch some other voltage drop testing videos ! You need a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter to do this testing .
Is the theft light flashing when you are trying to start the car?? If not, then it is not the theft system. If it is the theft system keeping the car from starting, the car will crank, but will either start and run for a second or two, or just keep cranking and not start. If the car does not crank at all then it is the starter or the starter relay (these cars still had this). There is also a fusible link that could be the probelm and Fords also have a fuel cut button that i believe is in the trunk on this car. Give a description of exactly what the car is doing when you try to start it, and I should be able to help you better...
