Justin, thx for the very nice video. I had cleaned my terminals and even replaced the battery (it was tired anyway) but still was just getting clicking like something wasn't making good enough contact. I took apart the terminal clamps and cleaned with baking soda/brush. Still just clicking. Once I saw your video, i went back out and removed and cleaned the 2 grounds from the core support - BOOM! Fired right up better than it has in a long time! I recently moved to a new, more humid climate, and i think that took a toll since I'm parking outside until my shop is built. Thank you again! 🙌
I’m going through a similar problem with my 2002 new edge my car lost power steering and brakes while driving and shut it self off so I thought it was a alternator and that wasn’t the issue I found one wire in my passenger fender unplugged but I can’t find out where it goes to my anti theft light shows up only when I try and crank the car and the car just gives a very repetive grinding sound I’m just very confused on what that wire could be and what is causing my car not to be able to start back up
Glad I found your video, very thorough video and I think this is gunna help me with a 4.6 motor replacement someone else did. I have taken over the job and needed this
The SN95 negative battery terminal connectors have always giving me trouble. Ocam's Razor -- the simplest solution is sometimes the correct one! But, very informative video about all the little tricks--- bookmarked!
Ok I got one for ya, 2000 gt. May or may not have been drinking and hooked up jump box backwards. Instantly pulled it off now crank no start. Didn’t have multi meter handy but replaced all visible blown fuses. Still no start will continue the chase next days off. Where would you start next. You seem much more familiar with these cars than I am.
Now mine is kind of having the same issue but one day it’ll run fine and then it won’t start and then next day it starts. But I hear a faint click. Can’t tell if it’s a relay or the starter. or if you let it sit for a couple hours and eventually it may start. 2000 GT
You can have those connectors the lead connectors on their like that. They wont-work. I'll start sometimes but won't start other times I did that with my car. You need them skinny battery ends to put on there. The metal ones.
My 97 v6 completely died yesterday, swapped battery and starter relay and nothing. I’m getting zero lights on the dashboard but my door light still turns on
having trouble with getting no power i got new terminals new alternator new battery and im still getting no power at all in a 2000 gt 4.6L automatic i did replace the radiator recently and i think the wiring is very old
I had this problem and spent over $600 dollars(don’t be me) it ended up being the sensor right by the a/c compressor which was not plugged in all the way. Fuel pump good, fuses good, relays good, wires good, getting gas and spark . Just to end up being a loose connector. Thanks this video helped 🫠
Where is that located I think I have the same issue I’ve replaced absolutely everything ran new wires to the starter from the battery and still just clicking from the starter to sometimes not even a click I’m so confused on what it could possiblly be
I have an 03 GT. Can I grab any CCRM from 99-04 GT Mustang or does it have to be programmed or plug and play? I did a clutch and throw out bearing yesterday after car sat with dead battery for 3 months. Got it all done and had no crank no start. I confirmed starter circuit from plug right at relay box to starter is good I can jump battery voltage to the white pink starter signal wire and it starts right up. Driving it battery light would flicker and odometer would display than I would look down and it was all dashes. I even jumped clutch safety switches didn’t crank still. I’m pretty sure it’s somewhere in the relay fuse box under hood. Any recommendations? Thanks you and your brother are so much help!
I've had crank no starts happen twice a year apart on my 2004 V6 Mustang. Went through the usual check list, voltage, fuses, vacuum, etc. It was when I hooked up a spark tester to the front driver side plug that the car cranked and started. The first time I thought it might be that fuel just needed to get up front because I had changed the fuel filter, and that was that, but the second time? Thought I'd throw that out there.
@@J2FiDDY Spark plug on front driver side. A new way I've found is to put the key in the start position, leave it on for 10 minutes, move it back to the off position and try cranking it. That worked for me twice as well.
ive got v6 2001 i took off the interior dome light on the top, i was planning to switch the bulbs out to a led but i notced the bulbs were very different and i left it unplugged, couple days later i tried to start it and i got no response, the battery was dead, i replaced it and now i had crank but no start and im kinda stumped, thanks!
Have somebody listen underneath the fuel tank for the pump to prime when you turn the key, not to start, just to prime the pump. just the first click of the key forward
@@justin.c_svt maybe since the battery shorted out could it have shorted the fuel pump system ? I’ll take a look tomorrow, I was reading into the inertia switch and others but just so confused on how the battery died without the connector plugged in
I have an '04 GT. The anti-theft system is locked out The car cranks hard but won't start. This problem started after I did some welding on the car. How can I reset the anti-theft system?
You may be able to get it to run by cranking it and shooting starter fluid into the throttle body while cranking it. When you don’t have the key, the pats antitheft system cuts fuel so you may be able to give it fuel with the starter fluid just enough to get it to run.
@BCD.Felipe You can take the serpentine belt off and rotate the engine clockwise with a big socket wrench to see if the engine is locked up. Running for a few seconds won’t give you much to go off if it has a spun bearing, you can check the oil for metal or milk (coolant or water in the oil) and check the spark plugs to see what they look like. As long as you can get it to crank you can do a compression test too
So my starter, alternator, and battery are good I checked my starters wires and theyre good i checked my grounds and theyre all tight and my car clicks and then acts like it has no power any idea?
Did you change anything since the last time the car ran? Even though the battery might test 12 V it still might be a bad battery and as soon as you go to start it it drops to zero.
@justin.c_svt well I have a extra negative cable that's grounding out the negative terminal to allow it to start like normal but my Amp and train horn don't get power and I took a voltage tester and it went off on my block
@money-pitmustang This is the issue I always get when people ask me questions and I find out that they have a bunch of variables in the equation. How am I supposed to ever guess that you have a train horn and an amp installed, wires installed who knows where, and try to figure out what the issue is when those things could be causing the issue?
I had my car die on me about a year ago and it wouldbt start to save my life. The 1st slot for the fuse in the fuse box under the hood broke it took me days to figure it out. That fuse is for the fuel pump so i ran a wire from the 1st broken fuse slot to the 3rd fuse and til this day hasnt failed me
@justin.c_svt I'm not sure but the plastic on that area is very fragile. Going to order a new fuse box eventually but for now it works fine with the wire I put on there.
The point can be one of the many things I cover in the video. It covers all the possibilities. Obviously you are watching the video because you can’t figure it out yourself. If you don’t like a detailed video then go away.
Extremely thorough video. The New Edge guru. We may not have forums anymore, but we've got Justin. Thanks man!
Thank you. That’s very nice of you.

People ask you questions because you are the professor Justin...the master of the new edge 👍
Thanks. I appreciate the compliment
I can't thank you enough for this video! It was a HUGE help for me today!!!
I’m happy to hear that. Thanks for letting me know.
Much respect to you Justin choosing to help out and go the extra mile for a newedge owner. True passion for helping out salute 🫡
Thank you.

Good luck 👍🏻
Glad you found the issue, props to Justin for helping out! 💯
Thanks. Me too
what was the problem
The SN95 negative battery terminal connectors have always giving me trouble. Ocam's Razor -- the simplest solution is sometimes the correct one! But, very informative video about all the little tricks--- bookmarked!
Very useful information, it's easy to forget that the New Edge Mustangs are +20 yrs.
I agree. I never feel like they have aged
I changed the ccrm in my car too a few months ago. Car has 213k miles and still running strong
Ok I got one for ya, 2000 gt. May or may not have been drinking and hooked up jump box backwards. Instantly pulled it off now crank no start.

That was probably the crank position sensor
@@justin.c_svt the crank sensor was loose

I believe any 99-04 ccrm will work, V6 or GT. Could be a pinched or damaged wire.

@bastro3320 batteries can die in the cold or if they get shorted out some how. There is a fuel pump fuse
Was that connector at the end unplugged when you jumped the relay and the car started?
Yes
so ultimately the car wouldn't start because of that connector in the driver side fender?
Yes
My car is doing this not cranking at all but i starter it with the bypass starter fuce. What can be the problem
Did you watch the entire video? All the things I mentioned?
Hello, what would cause the odometer to stay on (dashed) with the key off? The car cranks but does not start. Thanks.
I haven’t heard of that before
I have an '04 GT. The anti-theft system is locked out The car cranks hard but won't start. This problem started after I did some welding on the car. How can I reset the anti-theft system?
You may have fried the PCM or the FPDM
Do you need to have the key for this to work? Just picked up a 2000 gt no key no title just wanna hear the car run for a second
You may be able to get it to run by cranking it and shooting starter fluid into the throttle body while cranking it. When you don’t have the key, the pats antitheft system cuts fuel so you may be able to give it fuel with the starter fluid just enough to get it to run.
@@justin.c_svt ok awesome! I just need to know it spins and isn’t blown !

What if the odometer doesn’t show sometimes
That could just be the solder cracked on the connection. My brothers does that and sometimes it works
He just wanted to hang out with you lol
Funny thing was, he actually left me the keys and worked out of town so I had never met him until a couple weeks later.
Long ass video bro just get to the fuckn point
