no crank no start 2004 Ford Supercab v8 4.6
Having a problem with my S cab. The truck doesn't crank when I turn the key. No clicking sounds coming from the any of the relays. I have installed a new ignition switch and a new shift interlock solenoid. I bought a new battery. Still the beast won't start. I'm stumped.
Checked all the fuses. All the fuses are good, not blown. Replaced some of the relays on the power distribution box. Still doesn't crank... no power to the instrument cluster and the power windows wont roll down. No power to the radio.
Before the thing went and died on me I was some intermittent low load pulsing from the truck, like it was jerking. Nothing major just a slight hesitation, but enough tot where even my wife said something about it.
I have been reading all sorts of stuff from it being the fuel relay, PATS or the starter solenoid.
I was reading something about jumpering the starter, so i can find out if the problem is in the ignition system. to isolate the problem. How can i do that if it doesn't have any power to the system.
I wanted to start checking the wiring to see if i have power to any of the components, but not sure where to start. I can check with a voltmeter when i get home. I would appreciate any help as i dont to keep on buying parts for it and still not get it fixed.

Just a thought that'll cost some time and effort, but no money. On the wall behind your rear seat is the body security module. You might want to take a look at it to ensure it is properly plugged in and doesn't have any obvious damage or doesn't smell like the smoke escaped from it.
