BULLETIN 21036 NO CRANK OR START AFTER 50 DAYS
Archie Cochrane Ford Service Department would like you to know that there is a bulletin from Ford that explains why some of you can't start your vehicle after 50 days of letting it sit without ever starting it. ---some of you snowbirds that go down south for the winter----
FROM FORD:
Mulitple vehicle lines-no crank/no start, no powertrain control module (PCM) communication, passive anti theft system (pats) indicator flashing in some 2010 Focus, Transit Connect, Fusion, Hybrid and Escape vehciles that have not been started in over 50 days may exhibit a no crank/no start condition, lack of powertrain control module (pcm) communication, and passive anti theft system (pats) indicator flashing (except hybrid). This may be cue to the PCM ignition Key-Off timer exceeding the 50 day internal limit. to start vehicle, remove keep alive memory (kapwr) FUSE FROM THE BATTERY JUNCTION BOX (bjb) for 30 seconds, then reinstall. The warranty and policy manual states to start and run vehicles every 15 days during new vehicle storage. This will prevent the "no start" condition, therefore no warranty claims should be submitted for this specific issue.
Effective Date: 10-19-2009

One topic that I really wanted to touch on is the fact that some of your diesel owners may not be plugging your vehicles in when it's cold out.
I wanted to share one example of how expensive this can be to you. If you are not using additives for your diesel engines we suggest you look at doing so. Also, if you don't plug your diesel in, this is what happens: Ever heard of gel in the engine? Wax? Check out the pics below and get to treating your diesel right or you'll be spending money like no tomorrow!
