Installed Edge, Won't start now??
 

I just installed my edge eef2000 and everything installed easy. I read the warning to remove the fuel pump fuse first and did so. Installed the performance level 3, changed the tire size, and said it was completed. Reinstalled the fuse, and went to start my truck and it wouldn't start? So now i don't know what to do, or what went wrong. My battery of course died on my. If anyone has had this problem or knows of what to check or fix i would appreciate the help on this one.

Try returning it to stock and see if it will start.

I did return it to stock, still won't start. I thought maybe it was still flooded, so i let it sit most of today. but now i don't know.

Not good. You need to call EDGE and get tech support to help you out. You may end up having to pay a dealership to reflash your PCM if EDGE can't get you going. Let us know how it works out. Good luck.

Did you check the fuel pump fuse? mabey it poped when you reinstalled it or mabey its not all the way in... Mabey the emergency fuel pump shut off kicked in look behind the kick panel on the passenger side. should be a red button.

does it need to be down position or or up?

Ive never seen one that goes up and down. Usually they pop out like a test/reset on an electric outlet

the button should be pushed in. theres a little slot on the side where you can stick a quarter to pop it out if you need to kill the fuel pressure.

is the truck turning over? exactly WHAT is it doing? autozone killed my pcm about a year ago, AND i have edge on my truck right now so lets see if i can help out some.

The button is down.

yes the truck turns over, but does not even try to start. I was suspecting maybe the anit theft device, and unplugged the battery for 1 hour. still didn't work. so thanks for your imput.

You let someone from autozone touch your truck?:lol: J/K man. 01crew, can you hear the fuel pump turn on when you turn on the truck? Should be a clicking noise about 1-2 seconds after you turn on the key.

Did your battery die on you during the re-flash? ( you mentioned your batt died - or was that from cranking?).

If so, your PCM is probably corrupt now. You will need a dealer flash - unless the folks @ Edge can walk you thru the 'stock writing' process - and you have an intact stock tune saved in the unit.

Good luck.

i hope that's all it is and not a burnt unit. call either edge or the ford place and there is a sequency that they can walk you through to check to see if it's your pcm. it all has to do with the flashing "theft" light.

i sure as hell hope you don't have to have a completely new unit. i spent right at $900 total for a USED pcm and a new flash from ford.

you say it says to take the fuse out? ooops. must have missed that part. but hey! when you get it up and going you are going to love it!!!

yes the fuel pump comes on

No it died while cranking it over trying to start it.

thanks for all your help, i will be calling Ford and Edge tommorow morning. I will let you all know what i find out. I hope its just a flash and that its not too expensice.

I have the same truck as you and unit and I swear it never said anything about taking out the fuel pump fuse.I hate hearing these night mare stories, makes me want to not flash mine again and stick with the custom tune i created.Did you recently buy the unit new?Im wondering if your software was old.Mine says july 06 for software.hope you have some better luck
