2012 Ecoboost Starting/Electrical Issues
I’m at wits end, I have a 2012 ecoboost, I started having issues a few months ago went out in the morning and the battery was dead it was an older battery so I replaced it. A week later same thing dead battery in the am. So I did some troubleshooting and found that the instrument cluster was still drawing power when it should be shut down, isolated it to a bad ignition switch, replaced it and my power draw readings were fine after it went into sleep mode. Now I’m still having issues I go out in the morning and all the electronics turn on fine, the battery is good but when I turn the ignition all you get is the clicking from the starter. Sometimes the instrument cluster will start fluctuations for a few seconds and act weirdly as well. If I jump the truck it cranks right up and then is fine the rest of the day. Next morning same thing happens again. Is the starter going bad? Am I still having parasite draw issues that I can’t find? Or is there some other electrical gremlin going on? Any help would be appreciated.
