First thing to check for is if the starter has a thermal overcrank or not, thermal overcrank sensor is located right on the starter it should have two wires going to the connector, check to make sure you have a ground to one wire at key engine off, next if ground is present on one wire plug back into sensor on starter and make sure ground is bridge or present on other wire, if ground is not transfer to other circuit when plugged in then thermal overcrank sensor is bad than just jump circuit or replace sensor, now if ground is not present on either circuit at key on engine off than applied ground to both wire and retest starter cranking at key switch, please update once test is complete, thanks.

Starter solenoid wiring diagram for 2001 ford f250 7.3 diesel?

all fuse good????
is the starter relay bad (oops none there)
does CEL lamp glow key on then goes out ?
it must or PCM is dead or fuse to it dead.
the car may have TCM (trannybrain) and it too must scan good.


OK , the key line wire is dead. (sure NO CRANKS)
is the battery good and lugs clean?
do the head lamps work key off and bright.??????
is rested battery at 12.6vdc? not 10. (called SOC)
does jumper cable jump starts work.? hummmmm?

the transmission if AUTOMATIC<must be in PARK or neutral. to crank. , must, if park fails we always try Neutral next (TRS/PRNDL)
scan the PCM yet?, see if there are transmission errors>?
the schematic is here.

https://eautorepair.net/Marketing/Default.asp

the below is off the Diesel page for this truck.
wow DOUBLE BATTERY F250 !!!!!!
if one fails the bad battery can wreck the good one.
manual trans is clutch switch (no trans told)
auto (A/T) is TRS. (trans, range switch )
central JB fuse pins 4/19 fuse 20 , 15amps NOT BLOWN
hint the fuse is only hot cranked !!!!!!!
there is no relay on the diesel
key on cranked 12vdc feeds the fuse (11vdc low if cranking happens)
and the fuse feeds, below left
if TRS not bad, crank juice goes directly to the solenoid seen here.
middle wire is clutch sw.


57-undefined-undefined-0.jpg cropped to make it more clear.
manual trans only has a clutch pedal switch no TRS there.

check the fuse for the speedo, (fuse #35 interior fuse box) if it is ok the electronic speedo will need repair, this is a common problem since Ford went to electronic speedometers.
