2013 Edge 2.0 Won't Crank

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I am new to the Forum and looking for a solution to why my fiancées car won't crank. It is a 2013 2.0 ecoboost. She drove it about a mile to the grocery store and when she went to get back in it after shopping she said all it will do is spin over. she says the steering wheel is locked and the electronics are working but all it will do is spin over. I am currently at work but is there any advice you can give me to look out for when I go check it out? Has anyone had similar issues that they can tell me about. Sorry if this topic has been discussed before but I'm at work and can't research right now. Any advice will be appreciated.

This is about the only thing I can think of (without hooking up a OBD II tester and reading the codes).

 

It's a remote possibility, but while your fiancee was in the store someone backed into the car and tripped the fuel impact switch. This is designed to trip the fuel pump off (prevents fuel from being pumped out of the tank after an accidient). Car will crank but no fuel is being pumped.

 

Brings up one more easy possibility, is there sufficient fuel in the tank? Car will drive and shut off ok, but if she parked on a grade with little fuel in tank, it's possible that the fuel can get drawn up but the pump.

 

Other than that, there are dozens of items that can cause a no start. Have to pull the codes to narrow down to the system/part.

No switch it is PCM controlled.
