What else can i do if we changed the fuel pump on a 2003 ford expedition and it still won't crank?

If by "crank" you mean that the engine isn't even turning over on the starter motor, then you really should have looked at the starter, the solenoid and the wiring before tinkering with the fuel pump. A healthy engine will turn over with the starter engaged regardless of what's going on with the fuel pump or ignition system.


I have replaced the starter on my 1991 S10 but it still won't start could it be a problem with the crank sensor?

Then why did you replace a perfectly good starter? ALWAYS test old parts and know what you're doing BEFORE you start throwing new parts at a problem. Find out WHY it isn't starting. Does the starter engage and turn the engine? IF it does, then the starter is probably fine. If not, check the starter, battery, electrical connections, ignition switch and neutral safety switch. If the starter has ALWAYS engaged and turned the engine, you should not have changed the starter in the first place; instead, you should be finding out what's wrong.


Why does Starter keep cranking even after the engine starts I Replaced starter but still cranking?

There are probably severable possible reasons, but I can only think of a few at the moment. Some of the reasons include: 1. Misalignment of the starter when installed, which allows the teeth on the starter gear to bind with the the teeth on the flywheel, thus preventing disengagement after the engine starts. 2. A defective starter solenoid, which remains [stuck] in the start/engaged postion. 3. A defective ignition/starter switch in which the circuit providing current to the starter solenoid winding coil does not "open" as it should when the key is released and thus be allowed to return to the "run" position.j3h.

I have a dodge stratus that will only start if you jump start it. I've had the starter tested and a new battery installed. Car still won't start.?

Check the charging system with a voltmeter to see if it is charging the battery sufficiently A fully charged battery should read approx. 12.8 volts without engine running With engine running should read approx. 13.8-14.2 volts
