What’s the problem with intermittent no crank no start?
The problem is an intermittent open circuit between the starter relay and the starter motor. To correct the problem, Ford has issued a new starter terminal pigtail kit (Part #6U2Z-14S411-NA). The installation instructions are included with the kit. Alldatadiy.com and Eautorepair.net are the two best shop manuals—period!
Is it possible for a car to not start intermittently?
No charge… take the car home and no fix. Again this problem is intermittent. As for driving over ice, yes, this is very possible. The first time I had this problem was when we were driving in roads which were terribly plowed and the car was struggling in several inches of snow. In addition, I live in NH and we had had a ton of snow this winter.
How can I solve the intermittent starting problem?
Throttle position sensor changed to no avail. further testing revealed that the wires around the fuse box had a significant effect on the problem. I think from my testing it’s safe to say the issue is within the wiring inside the fuse box. The only wire I can think of that could cut off injectors would be the injector relay circuit.

DON’T DO THIS WITH ONE CONNECTED TO THE BATTERY, COMPLETELY UNHOOK YOUR BATTERY FROM BOTH CABLES before touching them together. did the trick. lock/unlock worked, and it started right up. some crazy kind of hard reboot of the computer that my buddy found online while we were troubleshooting… 31 people found this helpful.
