So this morning I went in to ford, and out of my curiosity, decided to check the relays for the start system.[they actually let me in the shop] The starter wasn't getting power from what the tech said, so I checked the relay for the starter in the hood's fuse box, that was good -no trigger to activate it.
So in the car now, i realized there was a kill start relay, where the alarm activates it on arming so I removed the relay from its socket and jumped pins 87a and 30 with a piece of wire and IT STARTS. Problem was that relay.
They charged me one hour labour, cause they had to do electrical diagnosis, and they practically spend all day yesterday trying to figure?
Took me 10mins with some curiosity,[ and overwhelming stupidity]
Well she's running again. :)
