This video helped thanks I was having the same problem and stripped the wire down and cleaned my terminals on the wires and got everything hooked back up my truck started right up
Hey bud I have the exact same truck and had the same issue yours is doing. I obviously had battery checked and everything. Cleaned all my grounds. But it still did that issue. What fixed mine was I trimmed the wires about 1/2 in on positive and negative side and now my truck shoots right on and hasn't given me an issue since.
I think you found it. I cant believe they painted that battery terminal connector. I bet once you change out the fuel pump and get the lines cleaned out you will be good. Once you change the pump unhook the line at the engine side and cycle it a few times to get the garbage out. Good Luck
It was running this summer it started the first time I went to look at it(the night before my surgery) by the time I went to pick it up the pump was no longer working(or the electrical lol)
DO YOU HAVE A USB ADAPTER OR ANYTHING PLUGGED IN TO THE 12 v auxiliary port? that was my problem…. From the video, it looks like you did not …..For whatever reason that was shorting out my system and causing a random no crank no start issue in a perfectly good 2010 Ford ranger with only 70,000 miles…. There is something up with the wiring behind the radio or the 12 V auxiliary port or your cigar port might have a short in it.
@@nateman79 no it ended up just being bad connections specifically the leads to the starter but most if not all of the grounds were pretty corroded and dirty so it was a combination. As far as the radio burning up it was trying to eject a CD and the eject motor was getting stuck and it just started smoking really bad. After I got all that sorted then there was also a bad fuel pump which I showed that in the other video I did about the Ranger. Other than that it’s been running good
Yep I've done a lot of the fuel pump diagnosis and testing and its looking like its just the pump itself and not a ground or something simple like the inertia switch. but its -10 and windy and 2 feet of snow so its on the back burner for now

Sometimes it’s the unlikely culprit. That little bit of discoloration is oxidation and it’s enough to make a poor connection

I'm dealing with the same problem on a Lincoln that has been sitting a minute
The way I see it, it can’t hurt to ever service grounds/positive leads on any vehicle. Luckily it worked here

Keep chipping away at things. Looks like you are well on the way to getting this thing going.
