prncssmelissa Posted Tuesday at 03:43 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:43 AM 2013 Edge 3.5L 155K back in January, we replaced the head gaskets and the water pump due to bad water pump. no issues after that until September. I was driving down the road, the low oil pressure warning came up on the dash and it cut the engine. Haven’t seen it since. It turns over and tries to start, but doesn’t start. Battery is less than 6 months old and it cranks, it just won’t actually start. called both of my mechanics - they agreed that it was likely a sensor (oil pressure sensor). Mechanic 1 came and changed it out but it didn’t resolve the issue. Mechanic 1 is unable to continue working on it due to injury to his back, so Mechanic 2 took over. Mechanic 2 has replaced the oil pump and did an oil change. Still won’t start. Changed the crankshaft sensor(s) to no avail. Same symptoms - it cranks and tries, but doesn’t start. what else could be the issue? Mechanic 2 is running out of ideas and I REALLY need my Edge back! thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted Tuesday at 10:26 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:26 AM The fact that you're using "mechanic 1 & 2" suggests that you don't DIY, so I'd suggest that you find a reputable real mechanic to perform diagnostics and repair - a real mechanic would more likely solve the issue and cost less than #1 and #2. There's a multitude of potential causes for a "crank no start" and without more info and fault codes all folks here would be guessing, and then to pass those "guesses" onto #1 and #2 would be futile. How on earth did #1 think that a low oil pressure switch would prevent it from starting?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
