2005 mustang v6 fuel problem?

tdotboys · 06-22-2009

Hi guys. my 05 v6 hardtop mustang is not starting up when we try to crank it. Battery / alternator / starter is good. i am not getting any code when tried the code reader with my friends help. Trying to do some reasearch on forums and some of you guys have inertia shutoff switch in trunk for example 1999 ford mustang, but i am not able to locate any kind of switch in 2005 v6 trunk area. Is there any fuel reset switch under dash on 05 models? if someone can guide me that would be very helpful and highly appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Fuel filter. Change it out and everything will be awesome.

there is a reset button below the hood release lever, behind the drivers kick panel. did you run it out of gas? then replace the filter

It is used to turn on the fuel pump in case of a problem that caused it to shut off, such as an accident.

or if you run out of gas and it sucks air, it thinks the car is upside down

..there is also a fuse for the fuel pump relay, and the relay to check too. besides the filter, there is a screen in the fuel pump that can get clogged
