Are you getting white smoke or no smoke from the exhaust after failed start attempts? When the FICM was replaced, did Ford check the glow plugs and injectors for proper operation? Are you using an engine oil heating element or is the engine dead cold when this happens? How long does the engine run the first and second start attempts before it stalls and dies?

check the vacuum switch and lines...

This sounds like the idle control valve or stepper motor as it's sometimes called needing a good clean out or replacement. When faulty this would cause all the symptoms you are describing.

fix the plug,car or trailer, and check the wiring and bulb sockets in the trailer bigger fuses are equal to burnt wiring harness or fires in either vehicle

replace your stop light switch its on the brake pedal

i hope it help!

There is a glow plug timer that can fail.

Absolutely! There's a fuse that controls every light on your truck. Some share the same circuit, some don't. Consult your manual. If you don't have one, get one - you will need it repeatedly.

Hi Amy, The link below is a short youtube video on how to fix your transmission... I hope this helps.......CHEERS.. Fixing Transmission That Slips And Clunks

Apply power to the small "S" terminal.

The switches that control the lights for open doors are made right into the door latches and they have a history of sticking and causing problems like that. Here is a technique that often works well and eliminates the problem at no cost. Get a can of spray lube like WD40 or something like it and has a straw on the nozzle. Spray it generously up into the latch mechanism. Now open and close the door numerous times to work it in. Repeat this process several times. Since you don't really know which door is causing the problem, you should do all of them. It's usually caused by the most frequently used door but it's not guaranteed to be that one.

That sounds like a security system is activated. Somebody has probably disabled the siren.
