  • I was stranded at the supermarket in my 1993 F150. I had no crank, no start, and no idea how to fix it. I watched some youtube videos on what to do. Here is what I did and how easy it was to fix. Thanks to the youtube community which saved me from a towing and mechanic bill.

    I know it’s trivial but I never wear jewelry working on the cars it get so hot so fast gold is a great conductor just as a precaution but I think you did a great job diagnosing the issue to me that makes you very mechanical thanks for sharing

    Just came across this old friend!! Great video. I did laugh when you put the crescent wrench on the socket driver. I also don’t lay tools on a battery. To easy to go pole to pole. But it was great to see you!!!

    Notice on upper right top side of Chilton Truck or Van Model...there is a PART NUMBER. Intro: SAE .etc. certified Mechanics listed 2.) 2 Sections T for Truck and U. Excellent Indexed Sections and in mine from 1976- 1986 .I own 2 Ford Rangers both 4x4 1985 and 88.same problems. However I'm saving on parts and reliable helps .So thank you and thanks for not being crankee.👏

    Future reference for disconnecting battery just disconnect ground and your good , no power..

    • @jimmybeach5595
      @jimmybeach5595 3 года назад

      If you disconnect both post on battery make sure you take off the neg. before pos. and then hooking back up do the neg. last.

    You may not be a mechanic, but think about the amount of money you saved yourself by DIY.

    I have the same problem I just got the solenoid tho. Also when I go to jump the solenoid it doesn’t turn over. Anyone that could help me figure out this issue ??

  • @TheComplainingRanter
    @TheComplainingRanter 2 года назад

    How did jumping the solenoid work? Just rub a metal part against it?

    • @unclereub4024
      @unclereub4024 2 года назад

      connect the two posts with a screwdriver, dont put your hand on the metal....if the solenoid isnt working, arcing it together will send power to the starter
