I have a new 3.0 lt diesel with a no crank condition. Truck has about 2000 miles. The condition is as follows:
cool morning 50 - 55 degrees, high moisture content specifically in light drizzle or mist, only first thing in the morning, only first start in the morning. Once the truck is started, it starts fine all day.
Enter truck, foot on brake, start button - nothing. Screen ends up as if you shut the truck off with two choices for type of alarm. Usually takes two or three tries, eventually the truck starts.
No crank started last Monday. Occurred again on Wed. Dropped truck off on Friday to dealer, only to have tech say the truck starts fine.
Monday morning same thing. 55 degrees, misting no crank. Twice. removed foot and put back on brake pedal - now the truck does a very slow crank and stops. Foot off brake and back on again, start button, about a 1 second delay, truck starts normal.
I've told the dealer I'm not going to put up with this. Any ideas from the members of the forum?
