2002 ford explorer sport trac no start, no crank

Asked by Bigb52477 Aug 15, 2018 at 12:08 PM about the 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4WD Crew Cab

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My daughter's sport trac has an intermittent issue.  
It will crank and run fine then at anytime it wont
crank or start.  When you turn the key it will click
and then the dash lights everything shuts off.  
Nothing electrical will work.  I can disconnect the
negative battery cable and it resets something so it
would normally start.  Yesterday it happened and
removing the battery cable did not get it to restart
but the dash lights came on and I got a click then
everything went dead again

Check the connections at the starter sounds like may have come loose.

Just put new starter and new battery. Same issue, no change. Also swapped out starter fuse 7.5 amp left side dash and swapped starter relay # 49 with # 48. Still not start. Nothing has fixed the issue.
