My 204,000 mile 2012 XL had the starter replaced when I bought it from a state auction at a NAPA. Now it makes a horrible grinding noise for two seconds before it starts. Thanks for the video to help me remove it and see WTH is going on. Also thanks to you I’ve installed a Lariat dash ($100 eBay), entire burlwood center dash piece with auto climate, trailer control, and aux switches ($130 eBay) and also remote start and activated DRL’s.
Thank you, your video helped me get my starter out. In -28 Celsius weather I might add, making that tricky bolt - a very tricky bolt. Pulled out the 100lbs. propane bottle and a 125,000 btu forced air heater, and new starter in. I didn't do any of the checks but I'm at 320,000km on the truck and the starter looked original. Thank God it was the starter! Thanks for taking the time to make a video of what worked for you, It also worked for me. Cheers!
Question for ya. I have the same problem with my 13 f-250 . if I start it with the remote start and then try it with the key after the 10mins or so of it running, it won’t start with the key. Do you have any idea what it would be. Has full power just like yours did.
Anyone seen this? 2011 F250 6.2L with a weird starting issue. Starts normal when the engine is cold, but once it's warm, the starting takes 5-10 seconds, and sometimes I have to crank it twice. Every so often it makes this loud, awful sound like I tried to start it while it's already running. This noise happens anywhere from 1-3 times in a row, then it starts normally. The Autozone starter test said it was fine, so I had the Ford dealer do a diagnostic. They said it was a bad PCM and an ignition coil wiring issue, but neither of those fixed my starting issues. I'm about ready to start buying parts and hoping I fix the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Oh yeah and FIRST!
Ive heard of this issue on the 2017 trucks and believe it was a fuel pump issue, but the 2011s arent known to have the problem. Still worth checking out. I would hook up a fuel pressure test gauge and watch the pressure on the hot start to see if its your problem. Not sure about the noise though
My 2017 f250 6.2 has the same problem, gets worse in the summer when it's hot. I did some reading and some say it's the fuel pump not holding pressure. Or some breather vent that's dirty, I do drive a lot of gravel so it could be.
@@JackofAllMasterofNone well, I was convinced mine was a neutral safety switch, til I found out it was inside the transmission. I watched your video and attempted to jump relay 48 to test my starter, nothing. I then tried to jump it on relay 101, Starter, to no avail. I’m convinced I’m going to replace the starter, but when I put both relays back in, she fired up perfectly…make any sense to you?
Here's an update. My Ford reman starter bit the dust. Planetary gears came apart. Tried a Carquest reman this time,at least it has a lifetime warranty.

Glad it helped.
Thanks getting ready to do mine.

Very well explained.
2017 f350. 2 new batteries. Still dead. No dash lights. Ideas?
Thanks buddy

Jack of All Master of None - I'll give that a try, thanks.

@@JackofAllMasterofNone is the 6.2 starter and 6.7 powerstroke stater the same. Thinking about swapping mine for faster starting
@@6.0god37 No the starter for the 6.7 and the 6.2 are completely different and are not interchangeable
did ur fuse burn out too
No
Wow! It's almost like you need piano fingers to get that top bolt in or at least started, and a lot of patients.
Yes

I have a 2008 F250 Super Duty. Now I know what's in store for me when mine goes.
Thanks for sharing
Did you have intermittent starting issues or just one day nothing?
On mine it was just gone one day. But they can fail intermittently at first

@@rtf5050 Probably the solenoid on the starter. Aka probably the starter.
How long did it take? The Ford dealership trying to charge me 4-5hrs in labor 🤦🏾♂️
Should be at most a 2 hour job
professional mechanic 30 minutes tops !
There is a major difference between "Start" and "Crank"
Nice video. I used a 13 mm socket on all three of my mounting bolts.easier installing than removing. Ford reman,$147.

@@whiteycarlson4152 I just bought that.. $158 after 25% off advanceauto coupon.. and there's a $35 core charge i need to get out of that
Why not just jump the starter?
Thanks but hurry up , explain last
