Troubleshooting No-Cranking AU Ford Falcon

[@MRPricks]

Smart lock bypass after doing a starter relay fixed all the starting dramas I once had.

[@JoeL-Ford-Ute]

Hi Thanks for this VIDEO GREAT info I will do all your Recommendations Keep up the great Falcon INFO

[@TEKNOFIED]

Thanks for watching!

[@AlanGresham]

Your fans don't work how you think they do. The relays are there to provide a circuit that can be switched between running the two fans in series (low speed), or two fans running in parallel (hi speed). When in series, double the resistance so half the current flow, hence the fans run slower. I can send the wiring diagram if you are interested.

[@TEKNOFIED]

Thanks for that information, that's good to know. have a great Christmas.

Hey mate, great video and I learned a bit. Mine will crank when you bridge the ignition relay terminals, but the key does nothing. Won't start the engine at all even with the starter motor cranking with the bridge trick. Any ideas? I couldn't check the switch underneath the transmission yet as it's bloody hot on the concrete.

[@TEKNOFIED]

It's hard if you can't check for error codes with a scan tool. There are a number of reasons an engine will crank but not start. Check you have spark and if so then spray some engine starter in the intake. It's been a few days have you have any luck? Cheers.

@@TEKNOFIED yeah turns out it was the ignition switch not sitting flush. Needed to be fixed and car is now running.

[@TEKNOFIED]

@@HPHyenadon Awesome news mate.

[@HPHyenadon]

@@TEKNOFIED yeah it was simple in hindsight, the PATS reset cost me though 👎

j3 chip u can start the auto in gear and without a key then literally hotwire the 2 yellow wires on the barrel and then use the starter relay and its all g bro side effect is it goes faster too

Also to note that smart lock cars might not crank if the courtesy lamp fuse is blown.

@darrenvictoriathornhill1170 thankgod I just seen this couldn't start my car in the carpark at the supermarket noticed the dome light isn't turning on checked the fuse was burn put another in and bam started instantly cheers

Hey man how are ya I’m having trouble with a au I’ve just picked car won’t crank and fuel pump won’t prime woth key but when jumped they both go but engine still won’t start I’ve tried everything near on

[@TEKNOFIED]

For starters if both work when jumped then you need a new battery. Won't start can be a number of problems. Low compression, Bad or no fuel [Try spraying some starter in the intake], No spark [check coil pack connection], Bad MAF or sensor connection. If you can get a scan tool to read out some codes it will be a huge help. Cheers.

Could it be possible that the bcm lost key code cos my fob won't work or reprogram

[@TEKNOFIED]

It's not the BCM. If it was then the car would still crank. I have found with many cars that needs a key fob reprogrammed or a swapped BCM that needs recoding that the engine still starts or tries to start but it doesn't run for long if it does start, but it want stop the engine cranking. And if you did the jump wire starter motor trick to bypass all that it should crank over.

[@bigcazza5260]

i swear if a meteor was coming you would be like maybe put wd40 on it if u have to good attitude to have but

[@TEKNOFIED]

Love it... Cheers buddy.
