of course the only other car in my house, the wife's car... is in the shop too... of course. Anyway, I hear on F-150's the fuel pump driver module, located right above the spare under the pickup bed, are known problems. But the one's I've seen are the half metal ones that corrode really badly. The one my 2010 Raptor has is an all plastic sealed module, but I hear they're also known to fail. Symptoms were, when I first started the truck up, for the first time that day, the idle was wavering... thought it odd but I kept going. Ran fine on the road, until I was in the worst spot on an elevated highway in the downtown area hauling ass and it just died on me. When attempting to restart, it would fire up for a second and then die immediately. Does that every time I try to restart it. Fires up for a second and then dies on the next second. So I'm thinking possibly fuel pump or related, and then I heard about these modules. Anyway, got the module pulled... waiting for a cab to take me to the shop where the wife's car is that should be done soon, so I can have wheels to pick up another module at the parts store. Oh and the #27 fuse is fine... and the truck has a 189,000 miles and hasn't missed a beat yet... until now. Only scanner codes I get are a bad o2 sensor that I've had since I've had the truck pretty much (around 2 years). Thoughts? Oh and how noticeable is the fuel pump noise? Should I be able to hear it (I'm used to an electric pump on my race car and it's loud, but it's not an in-tank pump... probably quiet on this I'd guess).
