Truck Wont Start

Woke up this morning went to go to work and low and behold my truck wont start. Truck is a 07 f150 5.4l xlt scab, my gryphon brings up no codes and the truck turns over but will not start. I already tried hitting the fuel reset switch in the passenger kick panel and didnt do anything. Does anyone have any ideas of what to do?

Use the Gryphon to see if you have fuel pressure.

Report back the reading.

Are you hearing the fuel pump? You might want to check the fuel module on top of the spare tire at some point. mine was biatched on my 07 from the Ontario winters. Where in ontario?

ok checked the gryphon for line pressure it gave me a reading of 48, i tried cycling the key on and off multiple times and tried resetting the fuel switch again but no luck still wont start. Any ideas guys? Could this be a battery voltage problem because my truck is still on the original battery?

Have you tried the other key? Might be a PATS issue.

just tried the other key but my battery is getting low so im going to hook it up to a charger once it stops raining. My truck has also had trouble starting when its hot out, would run fine in the morning but by lunch time it wouldnt start on the first try but would always start on the second try. Im going to check to see if the FPMD is intact by the spare tire. I replaced mine in the spring wondering if maybe it is corroded again.

If you have your old module you could just plug it in to test.

alright i tried starting it again while being hooked up to another car and it wouldnt start, you can hear the fuel pump running and it smells like gas when im trying to start it. I even tried unhooking the FPMD module by the spare tire to see if that would do anything but nothing. Once again the gryphon said there are no codes so im lost on what to do next.

Could resetting the inertia switch for the security system help possibly?
