Mathew YOU ARE THE MAN!!! i can not thank you enough for posting this video...I was a minute away from calling a tow truck to have my sons F150 towed to my mechanic to have the fuel pump replaced but fortunately i checked KZbin first and came across ur video. Mathew you truly saved me a ton of money and time...it turned out be the FPDM and my son followed your video and replaced it quickly, easily and inexpensively...you made my boy and me extremely happy to have his truck back on the road..

I have a 2010 F-150. I could see the module without dropping the tire. Got underneath the truck in front of the passenger side back tire with a flashlight and could see it. Fortunately the module looks OK. In my case my fuel pump went bad a month or so ago when we were camping. Someone camping down the lot has decades of experience with Fords and helped me diagnose. We got it running an back home. He checked the fuses and they looked good. Had the fuel pump replaced and thought I was done. Last week got a wrench light and truck has been shutting off when in stop and go traffic. Found out yesterday about the fuse issue. Basically the wire to the #27 fuse cannot handle the load and the fuse melts. Ran a wire to a new fuse in a different slot and all is well. Was glad to see this video just to make sure we do not have any more issues!

Well done sir! I had the exact same problem with my 2007 Ford F150 and had to have it towed to a repair shop. Fortunately (or unfortunately for them) they had experienced COVID and could not diagnose my truck for another week. I started searching on KZbin as I was pretty sure it was the fuel pump myself, and found your video! The rest is history; I purchased a new driver at O'Reilly's and had it installed in 20 minutes, (the old one looked exactly like yours and fell apart as it was being removed!) And now the truck runs perfectly again! Thank you! I am sure you saved me several hundred dollars in repairs, plus a week or more without my vehicle, because the likelihood that they would start with the fuel pump and work back from there was a distinct possibility! Thank you once again for a great video!

Sir: Your video, though 5 years old, I found to be a Godsend. I am currently experiencing almost the exact same problem you had 5 years ago in how the problem came to your attention. We each own the same vehicle, only my Lariat is a 2004, yours an ‘05. Was running strong and normally when last week began idling VERY rough and then engine light came on. Managed to get home with stall-outs every 1/4 mile (Fortunately I was close to home and did check oil level, which seems normal.) And, like you, my suspicion is bad fuel pump and/or fuel filter. Unfortunately, NOT a cheap repair (the pump anyway), if you’re a Non-Gearhead like me and at the mercy of whom you hope is an honest (if not expensive) mechanic. Fortunately, I did receive one Pearl from an acquaintance who is a lifelong master mechanic, certified in everything a mechanic can be ASC certified in….and then some. A living, breathing encyclopedia of all things automotive/mechanical. I pointed out to him that aftermarket fuel filters can be had at any of the major online retailers (A specific one comes to mind!), and via the websites of the chain automotive parts retailers- for as little as $45. He immediately told me “No!” and that these cheap, foreign-manufactured fuel pumps are basically inexpensive junk and rarely last beyond 6 months. The Ford OEM fuel pump runs in the neighborhood of $480.00, but this was one instance where buying the factory part is the wiser decision. (Assuming this is the problem with my truck!?) As you stated, just getting access to the fuel pump on these model trucks is a major pain (even for the mechanic), and I certainly don’t wish to repeat the process in 6 months because I requested installation of inferior parts. Like myself, I’m assuming you really like your truck. Mine has been reliable and dependable up to this current problem. Unfortunately, new ones are $~50,000. Who can afford that. I will definitely ask if it’s possibly the fuel pump service module, based upon your experience and recommendation. Thank you for your helpful videos. Happy and safe travels.
@capnmatt412 жыл бұрын

By the way, before changing the fuel filter with those spring fittings, spray some lubricant into the end of the fitting to wet it. That area of the vehicle gets covered with everything it drives through. Use fuel line release tool and a flat bladed screwdriver as a lever to help push the release tool under/into the retaining spring connection, then you should be able to separate the line from the fuel filter. I scribe my mileage into the filter housing and when it rusts later I can see it clearly, better than paint markers.

I'm glad I came across this video as this is was the exact culprit to my truck not wanting to start on random occasions. I checked under the spare tire location and the aluminum housing was cracked twisted and buckled. The back plate of the housing had a large curved crack that somehow got pushed in close to the circuit board. It was so close that the corrosion was transferred and built up onto the soldered components. I broke away all the frail housing wiped the board clean and the truck started perfectly fine. I temporarily stuck it in a ziploc bag and sealed the entire thing with electrical tape as a temporary solution. Thanks for the video was really helpful.

I had similar symptoms with my 99 f-150 and it turned out to be the relay that drives the fuel pump. In my case that relay was under the hood in the engine compartment fuse box. I started getting a lot of strange issues back in 2015 and when the truck would refuse to start after a lot of cranking and then would start no problem a few hours later I started to suspect it wasn't the pump. I also put a gauge on the fuel line and could see the pressure was zero and was not hearing the whirring noise from the tank when the key was turned to the on position but not started. but back to all the strange issues. it turns out that all the electro-mechanical things (like relays) were degrading. If the truck was in a mood and wouldn't start, I could thump that relay and like magic the truck would start on the first crank. I replaced it and haven't had an issue since. Being curious, I carefully opened the bad relay and saw how the contacts were glazed over with black deposits. After seeing that, I decided to just replace all the relays in that box. All the mystery issues have gone away now. On another note, a lot of rubber and a few other electro-mechanical things failed on me also. there is a exhaust gas valve or solenoid near the break master cylinder that had a similar issue and was throwing engine codes indicating emissions control which made my truck fail state inspections. Long story short, Ford didn't make this truck to last forever. delicate electronics and formerly robust rubber hoses start to degrade but the good news is a lot of these things are easy to get your hands on way before you try and pull the tank down which I also attempted at first but stopped short when a friend recommended looking at the fuel pressure first. that suggestion saved me so much headache and sent me down the correct and much less hassle path.

Matthew, your video really saved my day. I was thinking fuel pump, but odd, since it would run strong, until it wouldn't. I didn't even know about the driver. Mine looked like yours. I replaced that and the fuel filter, and it seems to be the issue. It's running like it should now.

We make these simple things so hard on ourselves sometimes, my truck died and suspect fuel pump sending unit, took it off, it seems good, the original was replaced years ago. check the relay was good, I decided to check the wire connection, what I found was that the ground wire was rusted off, reinstalled the ground strap, truck fired up. So anyone before, throwing parts check the simple things first. I have learned if it cranks it is the ground. Also, the ford sending fuel pump unit is redesign to withstand the elements. It is pricy but worth it down the road.

Thanks, I was looking for a video that says the pump is supposed to make noise when key turned on. I couldn't hear it when my 2013 failed but am sure I remember hearing it before. I have a 2018 too and that definitely does make that sound and its very noticeable so I am not sure if the 2013 does or not. My uncle is a mechanic and recommended I put a screwdriver up to my ear and press it on the tank while someone turns the ignition on (not to start just on) and I could hear it hum twice but was much quieter than I think it should be. My issue is we could hear a rattle starting while under load or while tapping the gas but only while driving. Not related to engine speed while still. The next day the engine cranks but wont start. Faint fuel smell on the dipstick, checked relays and fuses. Put Ifixd bluetooth code reader on and it reads P0230 ECM has detected a fault in the fuel pump circuit but the dash never showed a code. I re-seated the fuel pump drive module and beat it a few times, still no go. Hoping it is that and I could try to bypass it to test first or meter the output. I hope its just the drive module as that seems to be very common. Most of the fuel pump issues seem to be related to the sending of the fuel level.

Its been sitting in same spot for nearly 3 years now. So this might be the problem he been having losing pressure and restarting back up.

Will the fuel pump kick on when you turn the key if the fuel rail pressure sensor is stuck high? My Ford would not start until I used starter fluid and it has been running ever since. Thinking it shook that sensor to make it work normal again. The fuel tank is too far away to here from the cockpit (RV).

I know this is an old video but my goodness! I am going to try this. Would a bad fuel pump driver module cause the schrader valve to not release fuel? Really trying to figure out if I just wasnt depressing it hard enough for if the fuel pump driver module could also hault all fuel in the line so the schrader valve is essentially empty because of no pressure from the module. If this works, I will also seriously venmo you kind sir!

I have a 91 e350 fuel injected. The front pump intermittently wont come on. (Has the dual tanks) The back one was cutting out while driving and stopped working altogether. The front one now doesnt always come on but if I cycle the key from off to accessory a few times I can eventually hear the pump kick on. I was ready to drop the tank but good call I'll check the other stuff first! Is there just one relay or two? Theres a toggle switch under the dash to select which tank.

I heard if you push the pedal all the way to the floor it goes into 'limp in mode'. Maybe it'll start. Get a code tester like a Actron CP9690. On EEC-IV, it just reads codes. Check for memory codes.

I’ve seen other f150 guys disconnected the bed and lifting it a bit to have access to the fuel cap/fuel pump assembly. Great idea here, I’ve been having the PITA P0174 for quite some time, it comes and goes but mostly it throws a code on start up. I will try my fuel pressure later to see what kind of pressure I’m getting, then I’ll check that part. TY sir! I appreciate you sharing the info here! 🙏🏼
@capnmatt416 жыл бұрын
Just make sure you check the location of the fuel pump relative to the bed before lifting the bed off. In my case, even if I took the bed off I would not be able to access the fuel pump, it's under the cab. Thanks for the comment and best of luck on your troubleshooting.

@kenibnanak55546 жыл бұрын
My 89 F259 has 2 fuel pump systems. The low pressure pump inside the fuel tank will run your car all day at speeds under 40 MPH. However, adjacent to the canister type fuel filter on the frame rail (you must drop the drive shaft and remove a shield plate to access the area) there is a high pressure fuel pump which activates when the engine is warm and under load (i.e., accelerating to highway speeds or climbing a hill). A fuel line pressure test of an idling engine will not detect a dead hi pressure fuel pump as the low pressure pump in the fuel tanks can supply sufficient pressure to pressurize your fuel line. You will need a multi meter to test it. The symptoms of failure are very similar to the symptoms caused by a bad EGR valve.

Ken ibn Anak I have an 89 f150 and I’m having the same issue. I drive for 10 to 15 minutes with no problem then it cuts out a time or two then cuts off. I wait a few minutes it’ll crank back up. I’ve tried all kinds of stuff and now I’m wondering if it’s the high pressure pump going bad because. Once it cranks back up I scoot home and it’ll idle all day long no problem but I can even rev it up no problem but as soon as I drive again it’ll cut out again

FYI. For those who come after, they only started after 2004 with the fpdm. Check the 301 relay and the#10 fuse next to the battery. Check the fuel filter. Finally Check the wiring from thy harness to the pump. If this is all ok, it might be the pump.
