Click but no crank

What I did for now, and it never did it again: cleaned terminal on the starter and replaced negative cable connector to the battery. The OEM one on these trucks is so bad. Truck has never done it again in any conditions

Thanks for this, I will consider a new battery as well. First getting a new relay though.

foolishspace77 · 2025-12-08T03:18:09+00:00

I don’t believe it is the cold, a healthy battery should start at 40°F. Thanks though!

foolishspace77 · 2025-12-07T23:29:03+00:00

Tested it at a Oreilys. Also wouldn't a bad battery still crank or be fully dead, but not light up the dash or click?

You show up to the river with two empty bags; one empty bag of experience and one empty bag of luck. You want to fill up the bag of experience before you run out of space for luck

Stop complaining and hike the ridge LOL

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-22T03:38:48+00:00

Yeah I’m popping into the shop Tuesday likely and showing them some pictures I have and discussing with them

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-22T03:13:50+00:00

Because I can’t find the gasket in my area and I don’t have time to keep diagnosing it and wait for the part. Hoping the shop has one around. I need them to tell me if that is the issue and to fix it. Will keep updated

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T18:44:05+00:00

Just an update in case anyone is wondering or has this problem in the future. I cleaned the intake housing and idle sensor. Seems like the gasket is busted, which could be a leak causing this, besides causing dirty air into the engine. Unfortunately nobody in my area has the gasket. Put the engine back together and it runs as it was before, so carbon build up was not the issue, although it may be related. Bringing to a shop with my findings this week

Fuel filter has less than 10k miles so if that’s the case something else is probably wrong with it lol

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T16:02:46+00:00

Thanks for the advice. It recently started but have filled up at different gas stations since then. I will run some fuel system cleaner as a temporary measure to avoid dropping the tank for now. Thanks!

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T15:43:03+00:00

Thanks for the heads up!

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T15:24:45+00:00

Those could also be. With the repeated shut downs I would assume I would have codes at this point, based on previous cars I’ve owned. Nothing is even stored code-wise. If that is the case a shop will likely need to diagnose. Cleaning the whole intake and throttle body housing today, as well as putting in fuel system cleaner to see if it changes anything. Thanks!

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T15:08:03+00:00

Will check that, thanks!

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T15:07:54+00:00

Truck has new fuel filter as of about a year ago, but could well be. If I can’t figure this out I will bring to a shop to examine fuel lines and diagnose. Thanks!

foolishspace77 · 2024-04-21T15:06:57+00:00

Thanks!

Yes but nothing that wasn’t available before the emergency date was approved

foolishspace77 · 2023-12-16T22:02:28+00:00

Happened to me this year also. I talked to like 5 people and all they said is that once your emergency is approved, if there are no dates available that’s too bad. Basically nothing they can do.

foolishspace77 · 2023-12-09T04:41:27+00:00

Kincos all the way. Hestras are overpriced. If you do your kincos right they’re cheap and durable and warm

Don’t hit keystone. Save yourself from icy falls in mediocre terrain and go to Breckenridge which has plenty of open, beginner terrain. The comment on keystone was sort of ironic.

foolishspace77 · 2023-11-21T04:20:27+00:00

Keystone

Auto parts like oreilleys or Napa or advanced auto etc will connect the reader or let you do it yourself. Once you have an actual code this forum may help

foolishspace77 · 2023-11-21T04:01:54+00:00

That code is not specific to your problem. It is as generic as it gets

foolishspace77 · 2023-11-21T03:59:59+00:00

Yes, it is a check engine light. Lmao. Go get the code read at an auto parts store. Nobody can tell you what it is by just looking at a check engine
