2000 7.3 starter will not crank

1988scotsdale · Mar 6, 2017

Hey everyone,
My 2000 F-250 will not crank and I presently have it parked on the street. The owners manual is missing, so my first difficultly is locating the fuse and relay(s) associated with the starter. Battery, lights and gauges all response the same whether you are attempting to crank or not. I believe I am not getting voltage to the starter solenoid. Anyone have a wiring diagram and a fuse/relay location chart for this truck. Thanks Much

If it's a auto, try putting it in neutral.

First off, Welcome to SDD.com Like the post above said try putting it in
neutral, move the gear shift a little as you turn the key to try to start it.
If it's not the neutral safety switch, then you will need to try to see if
your getting power to the starter solenoid. Good Luck.

This may not be helpful input but, on my '02 7.3psd VAN, I had a "no-crank" issue that both the previous owner's mechanic & I had a tough time diagnosing. The fix turned out to be what is supposed to be the glow plug relay. This looks exactly the same as the standard Ford starter solenoid the you see on the left inner fender on earlier models. After multiple batteries, starters, a few hours with the Multi-meter led me to that solenoid. $20 & 15 minutes later, no problem.
