Awesome job on the headlights!!!

Update. Mechanic found burned fuse block in the fuse/relay box and feels pretty confident this was causing the cranking issues. He was surprised it would even crank considering. Now I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that was it. Plus I'm dying to install my new headlights from Raptor...

You mean I have to pay for the truck?

Just got off the phone with the service manager from the dealership. Apparently the alarm is a Ford product installed at the dealership which explains why there is not a separate activation key/device.

I dont have any paperwork and the truck didnt even come with the owners manual. I drove it back from Wichita Falls Texas, all around Dallas and then back to Jackson Ms over a month and 1200 miles ago. Two weeks ago it started and considering it was at the dealership this entire past week. In...

Thanks, I'll dive into trying to disable it tomorrow when I have some daylight. Considering it is built into the stock key, will this cause any further issues?

The service manager didnt seem to think that was it. Does ford make an upgraded alarm/ anti-theft option? Sorry to get off point, are there instances where alarms cause this type of non-starting problem? Seems like it would be failing on a more consistent level rather than just so oddly...

I never really paid attention, when it happens again I will give it a good look. What exactly would I be looking for it to do?

The theft light on mine is located by the headlight switch close to the left knee. The dealer inquired about this Tuesday. I didnt know exactly what the light was, took for granted it was on all Raptors, but apparently its an aftermarket alarm/security system that was dealer installed and...

My truck is sitting at half a tank right now. One would have thought for the entire week that the dealership could have replicated the same problem it took me less than 2 hours to do. My fuel pump doesn't whine but when the key is turned to the on position you can briefly hear an audible click...

Got the truck back from the dealership yesterday and no change. They could not find anything wrong. This morning I replicated exactly what I did when this started, drove 20 miles, cut the truck off and let it sit for 45 mins and drove 20 miles back with no issues yet. Now I get ready to leave...

The truck is still at the dealership. I haven't heard from them since early yesterday morning when I called to make sure the service manager completely understood the problem. I am sure they are trying to replicate the problem based off the information I gave them, and that in its self will be...

This is what makes the situation weird and frustrating. The truck will fire when cold and fire when hot, but not when its been sitting between 1.5-3 hours. Something is going on when left to sit. My wife, of all people, wondered if maybe there was an injector leak down causing a flood type...

Well I spoke with the service rep from the local dealership. He informed me that the truck cranked right up. I told him the story and how its stranded me multiple times. This started after I took it in for a tune up, could this be related in some fashion? I know I'm reaching but he didnt sound...

I spoke too soon. Stranded again and have no idea why it's not firing. Off to the dealership in the morning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So far so good. No issues since installing the canister purge valve. Tremendous thanks to those who posted here with helpful advice.

Installed in bumper. Thanks for the helpful replies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got it figured out. Took time to wire up the duallys into my reverse lights also and after supper its off for a test drive.

I got a canister purge valve and attempting to put it on but I hit a slight stop. The rear hose has some sort of plastic clamp on it, white and black with two ears at the bottom. How does the clamp work? Trying to remove it and I know it has something to do with squeezing the two tabs together...

Tried several local parts stores today and no luck. Pretty much 5-7 day wait for it to be shipped; with that in mind, I'm really hoping the stealership might have one in stock or able to get one quicker.

So this morning I decided to drive it to church seeing as it was cranking just fine with no issues. Made it to church with nothing unusual, even took the spare key with me just in case. Got ready to leave and we have another repeat of yesterday, turns over but dose not fire. Got lucky enough to...

Ok, just went outside and fired it up with the spare key. Nothing unusual happened.

Correct..it would turn over but not fire. Crank but not start. ---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ---------- Thanks Jeff. I'm going to check this more thoroughly in the morning for the ticking and if it is then off to the parts house I go.

I just went outside and started the truck up, no ticking sounds that I can hear but consider it has a very loud cat back exhaust and i'm almost hearing impaired. It would have to be one helluva tick for me to hear it. Considering the possibility of it being the canister purge valve, is this...
