Why does my starter stay on?
So, if your starter keep running, the problem could be stuck starter relay contacts, a continuous ground on the starter relay control coil, or a binding ignition lock cylinder that keeps the actually ignition switch in the START position. If the problem persists, it’s not a stuck relay.
Why does my Ford F350 starter stay on?
Have a 2000 f350 7.3 super duty. The starter stayed engaged and I was unable to turn off the motor, although turning the ignition back to off, the starter stayed on. Ultimately the starter burned out and was shot. I replaced the starter and the ignition tumbler in the steering wheel.
Where does the starter go on a Ford?
Although Ford has changed the location of the starter over the years, the manufacturer really hasn’t changed much to the design and functionality. The starter motor bolts onto the side of the transmission housing and uses a starter solenoid to kick the small gear inside the starter for the transmission.
How does the solenoid work on a Ford starter?
The solenoid engages the starter motor teeth with the flywheel teeth, and simultaneously connects the high current power to the starter motor. On some Fords, like yours (from what I’ve read), the relay portion of the solenoid is separate from the starter.
What causes no start on a Ford pick up?
If no voltage is present, as your helper cranks the engine, then the cause of no fuel condition is due to either a bad fuse, fuel pump relay, or inertia switch. One of the most overlooked areas, when testing a hard to diagnose no start, is the mechanical condition of your 4.9L, 5.0L or 5.8L Ford car, pick up, van or SUV.

Where is the relay on a Ford starter?
On some Fords, like yours (from what I’ve read), the relay portion of the solenoid is separate from the starter. It is a small part on the passenger side of the car, and it gets the signal from the ignition instead of a smaller relay activating the solenoid on the starter.
Why is my starter not working on my new car?
It is a small part on the passenger side of the car, and it gets the signal from the ignition instead of a smaller relay activating the solenoid on the starter. Since you’ve already replaced your starter and the ignition switch, you have one likely problem left.
