I was driving to the Ford dealer(which they didn't have **** of what i looking for). And all of a sudden it died. It didn't want to start. So i pull over. And crank and crank with no luck. Then i listen to see if i hear the fuel pump, and no priming, Fuse wasn't poped either. So im like ****, i look under hood for a couple minutes. So, i go back in abd try to start it and bam the pump primed and turned right on. Why the hell did it do these?? Thats all the deatils there is to it. CCRM????

was it actually cranking making the noise or did you try to crank it and nothing at all happened...If you heard nothing at all, it could be your hot alternator wire being loose or fried...this happens to me a lot

I seem to recall that you've gotten a code 95/96 (those are the fox code #'s - I cant remember the SN version). The FP primary and secondary power loss codes.

It indeed could be the CCRM going. But if you could have missed the hearing the pump prime (and it actually did), a PIP failing can cause a stall and restart 10 minutes later situation like you had.

Good luck.

The PIP is in the Dizzy right? And ur right about me not hearing it prime. When i first did i had the doors open right under a tunnel from the freeway so it loud. Then i close the doors thhe second time and open the backseats and i herd it prime. And yes it was cranking. So the pip might be going? And check the codes to, thanks again

If you have a FP gauge, that will tell the story quickly (because priming does not = Fuel pressure).

And if you find that you have decent pressure but it wont start (and has no spark or injector pulsing), the PIP is likely. The PIP is inside the dizzy.

A little more diagnostics and you should have it.

Good luck bud.
